Eric Clapton Signed Slowhand at 70 Royal Albert Hall Blu Ray

Hi,

Can someone tell me their opinion of this Eric Clapton signed item? Based on the sellers other auctions and my limited knowledge I thought this looked good, but it failed Beckett Quick Opinion.

Thanks,

Danny

Hi All,

I requested the charity get a letter from Eric Clapton's team stating the autograph was authentic. I was supplied the attached letter from M.C.A. Eaton, Eric Clapton's business manager stating the autograph is authentic. Im curious is this changes anyones opinions of this item.

A few other notes:

1) Here are other auctions from the same charity:

Ed Sheehan - https://www.ebay.com/itm/125049734447?hash=item1d1d8b852f:g:S-UAAOS... - certainly looks legit to me compared to the art cards he's been selling this year.

Paul McCartney - https://www.ebay.com/itm/125048605200?hash=item1d1d7a4a10:g:RCsAAOS... - based on the price and they didn't even put the signature on the item as it will be signed and personalized after the fact

Other items: https://www.ebay.com/sch/m.html?_nkw=&_armrs=1&_ipg=&_f...

Doesn't appear to be a bunch of forgeries?

2) Doesn't the signed blu ray look like the way he signed for Soundwaves? Look at the piece recently listed on eBay, which is certainly legit: https://www.ebay.com/itm/334281713876?hash=item4dd4be28d4:g:mowAAOS...

3) The price, while yes this is an extremely good deal for an authentic Eric Clapton autograph, and that raises red flags, he is going through a bit to a down moment in his history (not the first time) where a lot of people are not going to be particularly interested in collecting items due to his current reputation. Plus its a signed blu ray which no one really specifically collects. I didn't think I was going to win the auction with such a low bid.

Most importantly does the attached letter change anyones opinions? Im at a crossroads where fight tooth and nail for my money back, or I got a great deal on a real Eric Clapton.

I greatly appreciate everyone times and input on the matter.

Thank you,

Danny

I have a letter from David Gilmour's PA which explicitly states the 5x7 enclosed was hand signed for me as I could not obtain his signtaure, only preprints. I was sent yet another preprint. I don't think it has any value apart from a fan. Fortunately I have him 2X.
