Other pieces will say that a piece is signed by numerous individuals, but they don't list all the signatures, just a few key autographs, leaving it up to anybody to add any autographs they want to on the piece to increase its value too.

a proper loa would list every autograph and show complete pictures of the piece showing the autographs so no additions/revisions could be made.

Auction LOA is a way for them to make more money off of the customer, they don't want you to feel comfortable with it, thats why they do it that way, so you feel uncomfortable and send it in for the full LOL from these companies. Until they do it right, the hobby suffers.

Really good points Travis!!!
