Is this an Authentic PSA Letter of Authenticity?

Came across the PSA letter from 2004 and the font looks different on the top where it says "LETTER OF AUTHENTICITY" could it be fake? Any opinions would be appreciated.

So glad to hear you just bought it. Dispute it with eBay now, Gio. Don't wait for the seller. And please download and post their other autographs and COAs/LOAs.

Yes, I will. The seller doesn't post pictures of the Certificates on the listings I had to specifically ask him for a picture of it and that is when he sent me it to my email address.

Steve, I believe Gio said he bought it outside of eBay...but you're right...he should dispute it immediately PayPal and NOT wait for the seller...

Yes, seller ended the Ebay listing and I paid straight through Paypal. They are two different companies now so I have protection, as long as it was through goods/services and not through friends and family.

Gio...I am curious....did the seller end his listing early...through communicating with you....or did the listing simply end after a "normal" 7 or 10 day sale cycle ??

The Kennnedy and Clooney are both obvious forgeries in my opinion.

The JFK was printed on computer photo paper from a photo downloaded from the internet.

This Michael Jackson is clearly fake in my opinion.

Previously he had sold a PSA Signed Michael Jackson thriller album with a different looking signature that had the same certification number? If you look at the Michael Jackson signature it is very questionable.

Don, seller in the description stated that the item came with a PSA certificate but it wasn't pictured so I asked for that and the certification number at which point he asked that I should make him an offer and that he would end it early. He wanted up to 2,500$ but I said best I could do was 1,000$ and he said it was fair and accepted.

Believe me Gio I am cheering for you in this matter but I have to ask two things....can you post the sellers eBay name or a screen shot of the auction so we might see some of his handy work ??

And do you expect to get the full cooperation of PayPal considering there's been a "skirting of the rules" by dealing with the seller outside of eBay ??

Believe me I've done what you did a number of times too...convinced the eBay seller to end it early and make a private sale to me. And lucky-duck.... I've never had a problem. But you are going to have to go back to them to ask for help.

What do you think ??

Paypal has assured me that there is buyer protection for transactions outside of Ebay, in the past, this was not the case. Thank you for your concern but at this point I don't want to tick him off and have him go against me and deny my refund. Rightnow he is cooperating with me and is being polite although he says he transfered my money to his bank account so he can't give me an immediate refund.
