The fact you posted this video is awesome. Your helping the public, helping many new comers to autographing, and I am really grateful you did this. We all at least once fell for something in our life, anything we have all fell to a scam. If you can answer me one thing if you have a source, where is the best way for someone to mail things to? I am stationed overseas for a long time sadly, but want to buy my MaMa and wife stuff.
I recently tried to get 3 Michael Jordan autographs authenticated 2 of which I got signed in person at a golf tournament and 1 my brother got signed they all came back not authentic from beckett, and I tried 1 of them with psa came back not authentic it is just their opinion it doesn’t mean they are right all the time.
Maybe buy a really cheap ball thats Authenticated from Beckett, jsa, PSA etc. Then video you taking off there holograms then send it back to them to get it Authenticated again and see what it come back as???? If they say it not real then who can we really trust now days??? Everyone wants to just make $$$$$$$$
I could never trust any autographed stuff without it being me getting the autograph in person. I was hesitant to buy canelo memorabilia online but didn't feel confident and ended up getting 2 autographs from him in person.
Michael Jordan has a huge contract with Upper Deck. If it isn’t Upper Deck then don’t buy it. He rarely signs in person due to that contract. The same goes for LeBron.
Yes that's true. It's because their autographs are protected by UD and the huge amount of forgeries on the market so they can't sign autographs ttm or in person because of their deals.
im a collector from england, my items come from autograph hunters who collect them in person and get selfies with the celebrities which is better than any certificate or authentication
the one thing i have always wondered about is when someone does mass signings is i dont care who u are your signature can change from time to time as u get tired,maybe conditions if outside and so on and on,also some of the older ones so wanted drank alot,that can alter a auto,so what iam saying is that some of these that say fake might be real just wrong time or who knows what,likes i guy said seen alot called fake when they witnessed it in person,and yes there are alot of fakes to iam sure its big business,just wonder if anyone else ever wonder abotu autos changign during a sititng or time or thigns in there life goin on,i knwo mine sure does
They need a notary also on the certificate Beckett also a awesome grading place. Yes sounds to good to be true buy I buy stuff I can check before getting got robbed at beginning so looked out.
Great tips there. It's always best to get memorabilia signed by the athlete(s) in person, even if it takes some time in getting the opportunity. Eagerness to own a signature has the tendency to shutdown the 🧠, which leads to lost $. Patience has its benefits.
I have a local memorabilia store in my city. They have amazing autographed merch. Signed jordan jerseys ($15k), signed babe ruth baseball ($28k) and so on. I purchased a signed cowboys jersey that came with a COA from Steiner but there is no serial number. I emailed Steiner and they said anything pre 2016 will not have a serial number but that I could send it in and get re-aunthenticated with a serial number. I also have a signed football on layaway and that does not have a COA but player holograms that I guess their signing company (GTSM) only issues out once they witness the player sign the item which "is considered authenticated". Should I trust this local retailer....especially with such high end merch or should I be extremely skeptical? Any advice from avid collectors would be greatly appreciated Edit: I contacted the stores manager and he invited me to meet with him this week to go over the COA's and show me what to look for. The signatures do look legit based off of comparison photos I've done from other reputable memorabilia websites but the lack of those COA's and/or serial numbers has me second guessing
I bought an autographed MJ basketball for 500 bucks, I eventually realized it was a total fake, I brought it to a pawn broker who resold it for 700 giving me my 500 back, I will NEVER buy autographed crap again, Even if it's real prices drop over time and fans move on.
This item on ebay shows a coa from a company called legends of sports authentication. When i go to the website and type in the number it matches what their selling but the website is not ssl encrypted and is a very basic looking website. Its suspicious anyone know about this company?
Lol you funny bro. Good channel. That sucks man. I drive to jsa often. I use other authenticators than jsa, Beckett and PSA all the time because they are cheap and still well seasoned. and never had a problem thank God I'm pretty good with telling real from fake signatures also. That definitely helps. What if jsa pulled a fast one and they were real? Lol. That would suck because like you said all these companies let something slip through the cracks and you're paying for an opinion
I only have 2 items authenticated by JSA. I bought the item with the sticker on the autographed item and the cert. After the purchase I contacted JSA and ordered a Letter of Authenticity for a few more bucks. It gives me a little more piece of mind. It's still not 100% as it's just another opinion but it's as good as it gets unless you hunt the player down.
What do you think about star truck signatures? I have a signature with this coa..but I think is fake. I bought in ebay. T'he seller, sold a lot signatures, later missing. Thanks Thanks
@@BlvdTelevision a long time ago ... there is no solution ... I feel cheated. It was a profile that had many sales and many positive evaluations. Then it disappeared. star struck signatures Thank you very much for your answer.
Only buy Jordan auto items directly from Upper Deck. Tupac autos are extremely rare! Good luck finding one under $20,000, and MJ Photo was easy to spot FAKE-the COA had NO merit or validity. Easy to spot those all fakes. Do your homework first before you bid next time!
You can definitely get lucky with some Jordan auto’s provided they’re upper deck and you run it by them. The Tupac was a stretch definitely. I was able to acquire on for $1,500. The MJ signature was spot on, however it was shown to be an auto pen. You win some you lose some. Thanks for watching!
Do you feel that all global authentics are fake? I did what you did and went to jsa and they said it was fake. Spoke to the owner of GA and was told that JSS will say anything from them they will say is fake juat because they dont like them.
I've watched several major auctions online, and a lot of them use GA to authenticate their major ticket items... We're not taking about cheap $100 autographs either.
So which company on eBay would be trusted for basketballs with coa ? I tend to stay a way from coa like jsa or psa where they look at autos and give approval . They have passed fakes before . I’m wondering which company’s sell legit autographed items that they have personally witnessed from signings they have paid for .
@@Ac-gh1mq PSA & JSA offer OPINION-BASED authentication. They're sometimes hired to witness signings, but unless it's specifically stated on their COA that a company rep witnessed the signing, then the item is authenticated by way of opinion. And trust me, they're not infallible. I once got a Hulk Hogan (in-person) auto at a convention and JSA failed it. And a quick Google search will alert you to tons of high profile mistakes made by both companies. The following companies actually contract athletes/celebs to sign items: Steiner; Mounted Memories; Celebrity Authentics; AJ Sportsworld; Sportauthentix; Frozen Pond. You can't go wrong with any of these companies.
I don’t buy auto stuff on eBay except on cards that r graded by psa or Beckett and I don’t purchase nothing from pwcc ssi probstein breakersrowe buynicecards or comc. They all r scumbags. They all have been known 2 sell trimmed and altered cards.
I recently bought a signed guitar off eBay and everyone I go to to authenticate it says it’s real. I’ve even went to get it authenticated by the artist if she did sign it and it also have matching Real numbers and one of a kind holograms
I'm just got in the game aswell brother,, got Stallone memorabilia and collectibles etc.. BUT CAN U GIVE ME ANY ADVICE ON A COMPANY CALLED (AUTHENTIC SIGNINGS INC). ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED. CHEERS MATE GREAT VIDEO!. subbed immediately.
MATT GLOBAL J DYNAMICS I wouldn’t trust that’s not JSA or PSA authenticated and even they get it wrong sometimes. All these other companies I would stay away from.
The whole thing looked bad he obviously didn't know what he was doing anyone know all these authenticators coa he had with those items were red flag trash
Beckett is reputable... No authentication company is perfect by any means. They all make mistakes. Your paying for an opinion. The only 3 I'd roll with are PSA, Beckett, and JSA. The Chief authenticator at Beckett is Steve Grad he used to be the head guy at PSA. He authenticates autographs for the guys on Pawn Stars too.
@@BlvdTelevision Hmmm... That's rather funny, because you talk as if you work for JSA or are they just paying you to shill for them? 🤨 Seriously though... What's your beef with Beckett? I think we at least deserve that much... 🤨
Autographs are tricky I've been collecting over 25 years.i live an hour away from the baseball hall of fame so I purchase most my autographs there.this is the thing..if the price is to good to be true the item is to...your not getting a real Mickey mantle ball for 100 bucks ask yourself is it possible this item was signed in the person's life span? For instance on baseballs on the back there are commissioner's names and they only produce those balls the years there in office..so if a mantle is say on a bobby brown ball that would make sense cause mantle was alive during that time..beware of a ball that's ultra white!!! Never buy anything without jsa psa or beckett..there are some exceptions like Steiner upper deck..mantle signed balls for upper deck in early 90s my choice for a mantle ball..have they made mistakes at psa jsa yes but here's the thing to the market there real now.at the same time they don't pass every item and you pay regardless nothing to gain by them lying..as far as autographed cards on e Bay just make sure you by autos from the card company pretty straight forward. Another thing forgers don't waste time on small money items it's the Ruth's Jordans mantles and so forth there after..if the auto is not from psa jsa Beckett or the card company don't buy it fanatics id also trust hope I could help
@Rimawanny BUY Gold or Original Stock Muscle cars Diamonds Silver and memorabilia Sports or movie Stars is a Bad investment unless u keep it for a conversation piece 👍
