This is Bowie's hand:

And another authentic:

A detail;

And this is...not.

This is Roger Waters signed July 31st 1984 in Montreal:

This is...not.

Here’s the most expensive item in the eBay store and an exemplar that’s included for comparison.

The letter is from 1963 and the sheet music is from 1968. Compare the Ringo signatures and look closely at the formation of the “R” on the sheet music.

Ouch.

It appears to be a direct attempt to copy it 

Agreed. It looks like the forger misinterpreted the formation of the “R”, and the top portion is mistakenly drawn counterclockwise.

So you are taking one letter and using it to deny an entire piece with 4 signatures, each including lengthy inscriptions? The Ringo Starr example was for his handwriting, not the signature. There are examples for the other 3 Beatles handwriting on the listing as well, which you failed to include. It is one thing for someone to fake signatures, but another thing entirely to fake handwriting. 

I’m pointing out one major issue. Do you understand that you have a 1963 Ringo signature style on an item from 1968? Both the signature and writing appear to have been directly copied from the 1963 letter, and as mentioned not entirely correctly. You also have writing from Paul that appears to have been copied from a letter from the 1980s. The writing on the sheet music was taken out of context, as it was originally included in letters.
