Thanks, Chris. Steve Sipe said recently that he didn't authenticate the Derek Jeters and that the person who did was fired. He's trying to get them out of circulation, but I see that SportsMemorabilia.com still has 13 of them (they had 14 yesterday).

You did a huge public service to the hobby by exposing these forgeries, Chris. Now to get the word out to all the people who bought them.

did you notice the drastically reduced prices? looks like a fire sale, while Steiner prices are holding firm.

does anyone really know if www.sportsmemorabilia.com actually own the items they are listing or are they simply a "distribution like warehouse" for those that do own them. Sort of like www.americanmemorabilia.com where you can consign the item to them or hold onto it and when it's sold they notifiy the seller to complete the transaction. Unlike americanmemorabilia.com though sports memorabilia.com appears to have the COA identified with the item and not misleading the seller as amercianmemorabilia does in many instances by indicating it has one (e.g. JSA) but it doesn't.

When I spoke with the online chat service people sometime back I seem to get the implication that were a distribution like warehouse but I couldn't quite nail down if they actually had possession or not. Does anyone know?

They both own inventory and take it on consignment. I heard that from the president of the company. When we spoke once he mentioned that PSA/DNA was coming in to authenticate pieces they owned. Autograph Pros consigns to them and their stuff is top notch. But they also had some horrible forgeries at one time on consignment. It looks much better now but I haven't dug deep.

There is another signature if we use the sorce Advanced AUTOGRAPH collecting. It has nothing to do with both... Changed through the years? Drug abuse? Since I'm not an expert I would't buy it without a respectable and professional expertise. My answer is NO.

Now, was it a test? I'm sure Mr. Steve you already know the truth...
