Authentic Autographed Collectibles
I was wondering if anyone has dealt with them before and can give an opinion on how good their stuff is. He's a seller on Amazon who seems to have a lot of the tough cards from the 53 Topps set. I included a link to part of their storefront here. Thanks in advance

Have you checked out Mickeys Clubhouse. They have some great deals on vintage signed cards

Always trust your gut. I am working on a 1957 set and it can be hard to be patient when you see something that you need and haven't seen many of before.

I believe this is Roger and Vic Till's operation out of Illinois. I believe virtually every autograph they sell is fraudulent. They used to sell the same stuff on Amazon under the name vintagesportsbb. Here is a link to that store that is no longer active, but has the same stuff. The phone number is the same. I am assuming they got kicked off and came back on.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aag/main?ie...57&isPopup=%23 The Tills have ripped off a lot of people, but for some reason show promoters still allow them to set up at all the big shows. I saw them at the national last summer. There are several threads on SCN. I would say well over a 100 people over there (including me) have been ripped off by them. I would stay far far away |
I bought a crap ball from them at the National. When you call the number, the brother answers, gets testy, and says he has nothing to do with the memorabilia seller. I told him fine, tell his brother I'm calling my credit card company. 5 minutes later, Roger called me back.

Thank you everyone for your input. It's a bit disappointing to see that stuff and then find out it's fraudulent, but at least now I'll know to avoid them. Thanks again.

So that I can get better at sniffing out fakes on my own, how did you guys know they were bad? I'm curious because I looked at a few on them and thought they were good
|
Unfortunately, virtually everything they sell is fake. They are close, but it just isn't good. It's hard to explain, because so so many are bad.
I purchased a few signed Sport Magazines from them on ebay a while ago. The autos were close, but some thing about each auto was wrong. As I looked at more and more of his stuff, it was the same thing over and over again. I sent them back and got a refund. I will never buy anything from them again. M@rk V&l@rd& |
Good info guys...

Roger has been around forever. I can remember him being tossed from a Gloria Rothstein White Plains show for having a 100% bogus inventory. Amazing how people are so openly, blatantly crooked and just keep getting away with it. Amazon had approached me a long time ago about opening a store there. I warned them about what was going to happen. I see how that warning did no good. |
