This item does not appear to be a forgery.... and looks nothing like the other items we've discussed in the drawing thread.

Glad you think this. You know the sad thing about this is it comes with a Roger Epperson coa. And no one will buy it cause of the coa from Epperson.

Make an offer. It has an Epperson coa.

Just trying to find out if the asking price is the reason you won't find a buyer.

are you able to make an offer on something that has yet to be sold?   This is another one that you are offering up for auction; - which apart from anything else is not very tasteful.

are you able to make an offer on something that has yet to be sold?  - Confused.

What's distasteful. Is the woman naked? No she is clothed. And many people sell pictures of naked people. Look on Artnet.

You wanna know what the asking price is. It is £200.  You know why cause we can't shift it. We have tried £350-£500. Epperson's rarely sell for big bucks these days.

Part of the problem may be that, real or not, I don't think that the MJ autograph on "Say, say, say" is a very attractive looking one. Although, I will say, that if it is authentic, £200 is really inexpensive.

It probably is real, but I think that style could probably be easily forged with a talented hand.

Yeah possibly, authenticated by Roger though, so his name carries a lot of weight.

When there is a lot out there of MJ then people can choose what they want to buy. An expensive genuine autograph of MJ elsewhere (even though the price has crashed on MJ), or go on eBay where people think a lot of MJ autographs are real.

That is the issue.

I agree, Roger carries a lot of weight. MJ autographs are kind of tricky. On eBay, there really aren't that many real ones being offered for sale - tons of fakes. But in the last few weeks, I've seen two 11x14 photos sell for $1999, and three 8x10s sell for $1000. But they were all PSA/DNA. I think the market is still there for real stuff, but it's getting people to believe the items are real.

Also, and I don't know where you are trying to sell your item, but I think there are a lot more people that are familiar with PSA and JSA, but don't know about Roger Epperson and REAL.

Many collectors who are somewhere between novice and intermediate may not be familiar with Roger even though we are here. When I joined AML a little over a year and a half ago, I did not know of Epperson, but I soon learned. After I learned he had a great reputation, I bought an MJ LP with his LOA.
