I´m confused. Some items look pretty good, some are very doubtful....

My first impression is that the inventory looks similar to that of Antiquities of CA. I immediately saw the same U2 Joshua Tree forgery that I've seen antiquities sell before. Same approach as Antiquities too - they do an elaborate framing job to try to mask questionable/fake material.

I wouldn't trust their autographs. I viewed a few random ones, like their Green Day and Areosmith signed guitars and a few movie cast signed posters. The signatures are no good.

Hi guys, nice to meet you.

I worked for SignatureDreams and seem right that I can answer these free accusations that have been made about our company.
First time: we always put before respect for who work and especially working in this sector. I hope you put too.

Second time: we, for selling our products, we need certificates of authenticity, exams, etc.. but to defame and judge other people need much more than suppositions, and attention, defamation is offense.

Third and last thing: every product is subjected to forensic examination and accompanied by a certificate of authenticity. There are hundreds companies of authentication in the world but who decides that this is valid and the other not? Who decides that the certificates of PSA / DNA are good and others not? We also remember the big mistakes made PSA / DNA? there is a lobby between the companies of Authentication?

We boast 2 different authentication American society + one Italian and we do our work in complete honesty and transparency.
If you do not believe in our certificates you are free to don't buy , but not judge our work on supposition, we work in this Sector about 25 years. Thank you and sorry for our english Language.

Well, here's what I'm looking at that prompted my initial post.

These exact items below are both for sale right now on Antiquities of California's website right now. Given their reputation among collectors with an actual competency in autographs, that's not a good thing.

This is, without question, fake:

And this one is also decidedly forged, though somewhat more competently done.

The first one is absolutely, unquestionably bad - just not even close. The second one is questionable at best, and anyone with a decent competency in U2 autographs can correctly point out that every one of those signatures is not quite right. In my opinion, it's undoubtedly fake.

Regardless, those signature sets look NOTHING alike. Very, very blatant difference. Along the way, did anyone bother to note that very obvious descrepancy and think, "Hmm, maybe something's wrong?"

Whoever does their shadowbox framing presentations, I wouldn't mind doing business with them on custom frame work for my own person collection. The autographs itself, eh? not so much. I agree with what Rich pointed out. These U2 signatures are not legit.

Signature Dreams,

A couple days ago you emailed us, asking to advertise with us. I browsed your autograph inventory and didn't find one item I thought was genuine...or even had a remote chance of being real. I didn't look at everything, but I looked at enough to tell it was more than the occasional mistake.

I was about to write you back when I saw your post here, and decided to just tel you here how disgusted I am with your company, SignatureDreams.net.

You're just another fraud.

Experts say authenticating autographs is not science, but rather an expertise based on years of studying signatures.

the autograph of a person (is my, is your or is of any celebrities) may be different if written quickly, slowly, in a signature event, in the confusion, etc... the first signature I do is different after 300 signatures in 15 minutes.

I understand your dubt but if 3 society say are authentics, there is a "high probability" there is real authentics.

Somehow this company is still allowed to sell on eBay, although I guess I shouldn't be too surprised. Their eBay ID is sign_dreams.

SignatureDreams, do you buy these fakes or produce them yourselves? I could make fake autographs, set up 10 different societies or authentication companies and then claim how can they be fake. Your stuff is total junk.
