Authenticity is Everything
Ridiculous Prices for GFA-Certed Items-Sellers Aware of What They Are Selling?
I cannot believe the stupidity. This seller had 10 of these!!! 10! $199 or best offer for a photo "signed" by Dimaggio, Ford, Martin, and Mantle???? Come on, please. At least price it so that it is not obvious that you KNOW you are selling crap.
So how much is a GFA certification? $100 bucks? Doesn't leave much profit for someone to buy an authentic signed photo of ANY of these players. What? These are machine signed? oh, ok, that explains it.
How much longer will this be tolerated by Ebay?

He only thing that could change eBays position on the garbage autographs would be a bulldog investigative reporter destroying them publicly. See below as an example.

The truth is that GFA is probably selling this s*** themselves. I don't believe anyone is having this crap certed.
I truly believe they are certing the stuff and selling the stuff.

Jason, more than a few of us here have speculated the same thing.
No individual submits their autographs to GFA at their minimum price of $100.00.

Seems like that would be an easily traceable conspiracy. Didn't ebay ban their COAs? If so, those could quickly be removed. Too bad this group can get away with BLATANT forgeries.

their COA's have never been banned by Ebay, and even if they were, it would not matter. it is such an obvious scam, the only conclusion we can draw from it is that Ebay is aware of it, and just does not care. If this were around when they had the EMR program, every one of these pieces of crap would have been pulled. but its a different ball game now.

In my opinion, Ebay is well aware that they are profiting from the sales of GFA (Stephen Rocchi) certed forgeries.

That is what I always believed they were doing. I think it is too confusing to have too many parts of the business going on at once. You certainly can't bring in any real authenticators who might blow the whistle. Keep it all illegal and keep it all in house.
