They do private signings exclusively as far as I know and are legit.

Excellent sports dealer - sell only authenticated items (MM, Steiner, Tristar) or items from their own signings.  Safe bet for authenticity.

Radtke sports is very reputable. There shop is in Woodstock Ga very close to where I live and I have been in there shop many times. They do alot of exclusive private signings with athletes. I have never ever seen anything questionable with them.

Stuff looks good to me.

 

Jeez... when Cano was a rookie he signed for Elite Sports. I got a Cano bat from them for $49 at the time. Wish I bought ten!!

Wow thats sweet.  I got mine for a price that at this point in time I feel is a bargain.  Bought it for $130 but I wouldn't have minded to have paid 45 lol.

$130 is a great price. If he stays healthy and continues on his current track, he will be HOF material.

 

I'm surprised Steiner hasn't gotten their hooks into him yet with an exclusive. Bats would be $500.

Hey Mike P, Tim Henderson and I are from the same area, and he and I are both good autograph buddies. I second his motion on Radtke. It is owned by a guy named Rick Radtke, and he is a great guy. As many of the people have already posted, they do a lot of exclusive signings, which I have participated in after SEVERAL carefully selected references I asked about around town here in Atlanta. To be more specific, they are the exclusive dealer for Chipper Jones and Brian McCann, and have a contract with Brett Farve, as well. And if you send them something for a player to sign in a certain spot, with a certain color ink, in a certain way, no matter how specific and detailed, you get EXACTLY what you ask for, from my experience. BTW, Rick was even featured on an ESPN "Outside the Lines" segment this past football season when Jeremy Schapp did a story on all the different people who were impacted by all the troubles Michael Vick encountered. Rick has box after box of signed Vick stuff if anybody on here is interested.
