Unfortunately Tony,

Guitar picks, in my eyes, are one of the worst areas to collect, unless you are very very experienced. And that includes autographed picks, or collector picks. Even the pros who go for solely picks often just have to trust their source or get them IP. As far as used picks go.

Autographed picks almost always look bad, even if they are real, and normally far far off from normal b/c of the tiny space to sign. Not always, but most of the time.

But one thing i have seen alot, is these disgusto sellers buying, for example, a box of 25 Slash signature picks. What they will then do is either forge the signature with something ridiculous like a single S, or they will just beat the pick up a little bit, or break it, and then sell it as used. I see this more and more lately, and ebay wont do anything about it.

And when the sellers are questioned, they just say they had some connection to get alot of used picks, and most of the time they get away with it scott free. Its disgusting and has ruined genuine pick collecting in my eyes. The only way i would buy a used pick or an autographed pick, is if i completely trusted the dealer. Sad but in my experience, its true.

Good luck to you on the item and getting an authentic piece.

The only reason I was gonna pick up a Pick no pun intended was for a presentation piece for my Slash Photo and that was it...But yes way out of my Element and I will be going to get a refund with it...Lesson Learned Stick to what I know and that is Signatures.
