Good morning,

I have made a post asking for assistance in authenticating autographed posters. Neither one of them came with authentication. That's fine by me, however I can't sell them on eBay due to their rules. That boggles my mind considering how many fakes and forgeries are sold there daily.

I have them up for sale on Facebook Marketplace with no interest. I belong to one group on Facebook and no interest. Nextdoor is an awful platform but I have them there too and no interest.

I would love some guidance on where I can sell both signed posters. I'm not wasting my money to get them authenticated. I have never believed in COAs of any kind.


One poster I purchased from the actor's website when he still had a website. It did not come with paperwork. Another poster the autographs were obtained in person and the poster was given to me as a gift. No paperwork came with it.


I own signed photos by all three actors that were obtained for me in person at conventions I was unable to attend as well as through the mail.  I know the posters I'm trying to sell have real autographs on them.

I'm trying to sell Sons of Anarchy autographs for actors: Theo Rossi, Kim Coates, and Emilio Rivera.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Anne

I know you don’t want to spend money on getting them authenticated but if you know they are authentic then they SHOULD pass (I know they make mistakes and fail in person autographs at times). They could bring $1000 each if properly authenticated. Signed posters, if authentic, are extremely desirable. I would recommend Beckett, PSA or JSA for authentication. I think JSA is more likely to authenticate stuff and generally cheaper so I would look into them. 

With them not authenticated people will avoid the signed posters like the plague since signed posters are so heavily faked. 99.99% are fakes. But with yours being obtained in person and having good provenance you know they are good but no one else does until they get them authenticated, unfortunately. 

Good luck!

Thanks. I don't have the funds to have them authenticated.


Emilio Rivera's signed poster I bought directly from his website. He no longer has a website. Theo Rossi and Kim Coates were obtained in person at an event. I have several of their autographs from through the mail as well as conventions. I can easily compare and I know they are not fake. The person told me they went to the event and gave me the signed poster as a gift.

JSA says one signature the minimum is $35. Then another $40 for another item with two signatures.  That's $75 I don't have to freely play around with. Even if they minimum that price could go up. If it is rejected then I'm out $75 which I could easily put towards in person autographs at conventions.

They are not worth $1000 each. I'm asking $120 for one poster and $60 for the other. I wouldn't consider these guys to be A listers in Hollywood. They've all been doing conventions on and off since Sons of Anarchy and even after it ended in 2014.

Also I posted in the thread as to whether or not these signed items are authenticated and received no response. I was hoping someone would respond and then I could sell them in a group here. https://live.autographmagazine.com/forum/topics/sons-of-anarchy-aut...

We're going to reopen our Buy/Sell/Trade group within a month or so. You'll need to get opinions here on authenticity first, and then when the group is started you'll be able to post them with a price. Check in a few weeks to see where we are. We have an upgraded Autograph Live website opening soon and it will be there.

Thanks!

1. How do I get opinions on authenticity?

2. Is there a link so I know where to go in a few weeks?

To answer 1.

Make a post in the 'Is This Autograph Real' section - https://live.autographmagazine.com/forum/categories/is-this-autogra...

I did back on June 10th and no one replied to it.

Apologies, I see that now. I believe that's the only place to get comments on authenticity here.

Thank you! I browsed all sorts of sections and menus and such before I got too far. I'm not on here often. I'm very eager to get both signed posters into new homes.

There are other places, but those items that's the best place. 

Thanks, Steve! I appreciate everyone's assistance. =)

Any updates on the Buy/Sell/Trade group?

I still haven't had anyone from here authenticate the autographs. Only someone from another forum. Thanks for any help you can provide.
