Doesn't look like he's really an autograph dealer, so asking about individual items might be the way to go.  Looks like he's overpricing the hell out of a lot of his stuff, authentic or not.

He's expensive. The reason I'm very interested in that signature is that I have the same box set

signed by the entire band, that I got face to face, minus Alan White. (He had a cold that day.)

That piece would complete my set.

I just did a quick check on eBay and found YES FRAGILE AUTOGRAPHED ALBUM CERTIFIED AUTHENTIC REAL EPPERSON 5 AUTOGRAPHS. The person has a buy it now price of $500.00. For Yes I don't know if that is too much to ask for. Scott

Thanks for looking Scott. That's a fair price for all 5 signatures of Yes. They are signing so much stuff

these days. They really exploited there 35th year anniversary. It was like a marketing blitz for them.

I met them on their 35th anniversary tour/signing and got 4 signatures. Their drummer Alan White

was sick and couldn't make the signing. The box set you see with White's signature is the exact same box set that I had the band sign for me. That's why I'm so interested in getting it.

I could get less expensive signatures from him but it will look like I got the signatures at a different time and I'm trying to avoid that.

What boxed set are you looking for? I did a search on YES Boxed set and all I saw was YES YESYEARS 1991 CD BOX LID SIGNED BY 7 YES MEMBERS!! BEAUTIFUL CO... and so far the high bid is $91.00 with no COA. So it makes me think Forgery!! Scott

Woops! Sorry,I didn't realize that we were talking about the same box set! I checked your link to it and that box set is no longer available.

I was able to search and find the box set you are speaking of. Jon Anderson's name is signed all wrong unless he really switched it up over the last decade. I will steer clear of this one.

Thanks for the tip,

Dave

I don't know them well enough to say weather its real or fake. But when the market says its still only worth $91.00 just screams fake to me. Scott

To make my heart ache the top of the boxed set sold for $321.00 to some poor person. They did not even get the whole boxed set just the box top! They must think they got treasure and will one say find out all they got was Sh*t.

Jon Anderson has actually switched up his signature (at least) twice since the early '90s (when this item was supposedly signed), and this looks right for that period.
