Slander is spoken, libel is written. People really need to take some courses; it is hysterical.

Anyways, great eye Steve. it seems as if finding an authentic looking signature is like finding a needle in a haystack.

Steve the very same thing that you accuse me of is exactly what you do to me when I come on this site and actually do something about one of your issues and then you continue to bash and harass. This up coming week I will show you items that have been certified by your beloved PSA that are obviously not genuine. What happens from there will be a series of ridiculous posts by you covering their a**** with another spin job by you and the post will get buried into oblivion.

Also, what your "followers" do not understand about the condition that you suffer from and have been diagnosed with is that you turn everything around on those you want to discredit and continue to do this without a care in the world. Starbrite went out of business because you are a fraud and you will be exposed for what you are. You are the one who attacks people when all I have tried to do is actually fix something that a member of my staff has done at one time or another.

In keeping with your " trying to protect collectors against forgeries" their is a certain candor that a person who calls himself a "moderator" should exhibit and you obviously throw all of those rules out the window. If it is true that you actually want me to come on here and contribute then the twisted view point and obvious slanted bias must end, as well as your personal attacks on my company.

Judging by your comments it is obvious that you have no clue at all that many of our clients submit their items to both PSA/JSA and those very same items when certified by us are "not likely genuine"? It shows that you have an agenda of your own and because of your "condition" which you have not addressed with your followers, you turn this all around on my company because that is what you want everyone to believe.

Get back on the meds and stay away from the alcohol Steve as you are a very sick individual and you know you are in denial of that. That is not extortion as you call it but the plain and honest truth.  Deal with it.

What condition are you referring to that causes me to turn everything around? And please tell everyone why you claim I'm a fraud and why Starbrite went out of business because of it.

Steve, there are many but since you asked let's start with Avoidant Personality Disorder you suffer from.

In adults this disorder can lead one to Emotional blackmail, a system
of threats, and punishments on a person in an attempt to control their
behavior.  People suffering from this also commit false accusations,
distortion campaigns and smear campaigns are patterns of unwarranted
or exaggerated criticism which occur when a personality disordered
individual tries to feel better about themselves by putting down
someone else; usually a family member, colleague, friend or partner.

Without treatment, a person with avoidant personality disorder may
become resigned to a life of near or total isolation.  They may go on
to develop a second psychiatric disorder such as substance abuse or a
mood disorder such as depression. Should I go on?

So if I am understanding you correctly it was Steve's second or third personality that stuck the GA sticker on the crappy Elvis item?

By the way Steve Sipe, where did you get this information from? In my opinion you should spend more time studying autographs and less time blogging garbage like this.

Roger, I'm going to stand up for Steve Sipe here. His psychiatric expertise is on par with his authentication expertise. Google his description of the symptoms of Avoidant Personality Disorder, the condition he says I have, and you'll see.

Steve

I don't understand how Mr Sipe says that you personally attack him when the only things you state are the mistakes his COMPANY has made.  Now he did personally attack you and that is uncalled for.  Instead of manning up to the mistakes he points the finger at someone else.  And one last thing; fixing the problem after one makes a mistake is one thing but the real trick is to get it right the first time.  Thats what the client is paying for.  It's not their job to check up on the TPA's mistakes.

Steve,

In May 2010, Jerry Gladstone from American Royal Arts called me out of the blue. He thanked me for exposing the photoshopped photos we found that he used to sell forged guitars, said HE was the victim of his sources, offered to open all of his purchasing records to us and let us interview him for Autograph. It was an interesting call to say the least.

Gladstone said he had dug up everything he could about me, including files from my early 90s divorce, which was an incredibly horrible time for my children, family and me. He said that Steve Koschal of Autograph Alert was begging him for more "dirt" on me, but to show what a good guy he was he wasn't going to give him anymore info.

All I had to do was take down everything on this website about him and ARA and not let anything be posted again. Gladstone said we were putting him out of business, and he needed to stay in business to pay back all of his customers for the forgeries ARA sold them. 

I couldn't do that.

A few months ago, anonymous postings on Autograph News Live and Ripoff Report start mentioning our "200 page divorce file" and now you are referring to things that are probably from that file. If it's true that you can judge a man by the company he keeps, that doesn't say good things about you.

You can continue down your vile path and rip open my family's wounds again. Or you can act like a decent human being. The choice is yours.

Steve how on earth can you possibly turn this around on me? Do I need to go back over a year ago and pull posts where all that I ask is if you have an item in question please contact me (like you have done to OUR CLIENTS) and I personally will handle it. Yet you still go down the path of attacking my company and me personally.

In the instance of the Elvis all you needed to do was send me an email and as you can clearly see it was handled within 30 minutes of being brought to my attention. Going down the path of personally attacking me again after I actually took care of the piece by voiding the certificate, contacting the customer directly (who actually bought it from a very high profile dealer) and continuing to rip on me does not sound like a person who wants this all to stop.

You seem to think that it is open season on everyone that you have some personal vendetta with but when they actually dish it out to you it is now all of a sudden a "vile path to rip open your families wounds?" Go figure.......

Since you have already contacted one of our larger customers and they have stopped using our services due to this particular phone conversation you need to take a good look at the crap you have done to make this all happen as well. 

Nothing I have stated in my prior posts have anything to do with a divorce filing and not related in anyway to any vile attempts in the past to cause harm to anyone in your family. You might want to think of them in that respect prior to launching these kinds of personal vendetta's on others Steve.
