I understand but isn’t there the slightest chance it could be legit I haven’t bought it from him personally. It would be a big letdown if it indeed turned out to be fake. I saw the testimonies on his site are they all fake? I don’t understand how a lot of people vouched for him if he was a prolific forger. I also posted this on racc group on Facebook and other sites and they all say it looks good so I don’t know what to think. Just hoping it not a fake would be very disappointing.

You know that it originated from a known forger but you feel you are protected by the fact that you didn't buy it from him personally?
You contacted the forger to ask if it was real and he said it was, and you were reassured by that?
You trust the testimonials on his site? Do you think he includes the ones from people who called out his forgeries?
I don't know Bowie's signature enough to authenticate it, but he has been discussed here at great length and I trust the people who have extensively studied him.
You want to believe it is real and that is clouding your judgement, to say the least.

Kieran,
The correct domain URL is Davidbowieautograph.com, BTW. I forgot that as well.
If you're looking for a Bowie autograph with the slightest chance of being legit, one with a DavidBowieAutograph.com COA is hard to beat. But I'd suggest looking for one with only the slightest chance of being fake.

Kieran. I specifically pointed you (from RACC) to all the articles HERE on AML in regards to "Andy Peters" Tony Ford. You did not receive many opinions on RACC to be perfectly frank. I did however alert you that he was a fraud. Regardless anything associated with his LOA is suspect.

I understand but you can understand my concern and reason for trying to make sure I have spent quite abit on this. But I suppose I could have bought a fake you told me to come here and ask so I did.

They are the same person. There is a thread I will look for that explains all this. When I find it I will link it.

Hello Kieran,
I am (still) listed at that Bowie site as "a gentleman with the sharpest eye out there..." - and I would not go near that signed LP. I hope this helps you.
Best wishes,
Eric

PS - Shoot me a friend request and I will tell you why I'd avoid that LP in a PM.

Wow, those are some pretty harsh accusations. How did I miss this? Did it get a follow-up after October 2023?
Hard to believe he is a serial fraud. I've had nothing but friendly conversation with Andy. Although I did correct him once for an auto he incorrectly believed to be good (and he agreed with me later). Maybe he got a little overwhelmed by the huge amount of send ins?
