I agree.... pure arrogance. I also question what Spence is doing to remedy this. It seems he should proactively and vocally make a few necessary changes, and should be personally involved with counseling his authenticators.

I don't think that a detached or passive approach to fixing this is warranted. It also seems that something should be posted on his website, in order to alleviate people's concerns.

I know that Spence's authenticators must put greater effort into the review process of rarer/more valuable autographs than Bando (who was signing at the very event in question). There is little reason for an authenticator to suspect a fake Sal Bando autograph. But this is still a "black eye" that should be addressed with strong corrective action, if Spence hopes to retain any of his previous status.
