How much longer will we have to look at GFA garbage on Ebay

All this GFA stuff is comical. I'd much rather buy something with no COA than a GFA coa. Atleast the won with no coa might have a 1% chance being real. That's 1% more than something graded by GFA.

Until ebay removes them, which will probably be never.

as long as there are idiots out there ignorant enough to fall for that gaudy COA, GFA will continue to exist. All it does is put money in Ebay's pocket. they do not care.

You never know. Something just might happen sometime in the future.

You got the scammers on Ebay who know they are selling GFA-certed forgeries, but are hiding behind the GFA (Guaranteed Forensic Authenticators, Stephen Rocchi and John Goraczyk) COA.

Then you have the idiots on Ebay buying this crap.

Indifferent Ebay + stupid people + greedy people + slightest semblance of professionalism = GFA rules.

has anyone ever taken them up on their authenticity guarantee and sent one back? I have yet to see a GFA sticker on an authentic signature.

I've never seen one real thing from them either. I collect a lot of 500 home run stuff and the 500 home run stuff with their coa are just horrible. Not even close to even being good fakes. The mantle and Killabrew auto's are super bad. i could sign their names better.
