Wow...nice find. The hits just keep on coming. That guy Mark Calamusa from CSC is obviously crooked....

There is NOTHING BUT FORGERIES ON HIS WEBSITE. He is a SCAMMER In YODA's Opinion

This is the run down on MR CSC COLLECTIBLE, FAKE FRAUD AND SCAMMER, MR. Mark Calamusa...


"Mark Calamusa started selling and trading baseball cards in 1979. During the 1980's, he started going to area and regional baseball card and memorabilia shows in South Florida. After graduating from high school, he entered the military for 4 years. After returning from serving his country, he continued his contribution to the community by serving with the Broward Sheriff's department from 1990-1993.

In 1993, Mark started his own business called CSC Collectibles. He then acquired his auctioneer's license, and began a significant career in sports memorabilia shows and auctions.

The first retail store was located on Federal Highway in Fort Lauderdale, called Solid Gold Sports. This business was sold in 1994, and a new retail store was opened in Sunrise, Florida, called CSC Collectibles.

The most recent retail store was the "largest wholesale retail mall store" in Florida. This location served as the headquarters for private signings, and public appearances of sport and entertainment celebrities. Because we were able to have so many items signed at one time, this allowed the public to buy items at wholesale prices, while getting the same quality that the high priced dealers offered.

CSC Collectibles has also been one of the largest purchasers of collections, spending millions over the years on private fraudulent collections. Many fake items have also been purchased at other memorabilia shows, and added to our extensive inventory of forgeries. By purchasingforgeries basically in "bulk", this has allowed us to pass those savings on to our moronic customers.

While running the stores, he also started several regional baseball card and memorabilia shows. These shows included:

Beltz Outlet Mall in Orlando, Florida - the largest in the southeast, ran for 3-5 years on a monthly basis ripping off hundreds of unsuspecting boobs.

Plantation Fashion Mall in Plantation, Florida - ran show for 3-5 years, bringing in some of the biggest celebrity and sport names in the hobby, such as Joe Montana, Johnny Unitas, the 1977 Yankees, the 1972 Perfect Season Miami Dolphins, David Carradine, Carmen Electra, Verne "Minnie Me" Troyer...just to name a few!

Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino, Hollywood and Sunrise - hosted memorabilia shows at both the original Hard Rock location at Sawgrass Oasis, and then at the current Hollywood location, in which we have previously hosted the 1977 New York Yankees.

Holiday Inn Memorabilia Shows, Fort Lauderdale and Sunrise - these shows ran for 5 years through the mid 1990s

Mark has also actively used his auctioneer's license, by starting several monthly Sports Memorabilia Live Auction - held across the country. He also continually does charity auctions, for such organizations as the Boys Club of America, Make a Wish Foundation, the Don Shula Steakhouse Charity Auction, The Ernest Wilford Foundation (where we did a live auction at the Jacksonville Alltel Stadium). There have also been numerous churches and local civic organizations that benefited from our auction services. We have also worked with Princess Cruise Lines, supplied all memorabilia for The Original Steakhouse locations...just to name a few! He has repeatedly sold forgeries for many years and continues to stink up the Autograpgh Hobby by selling forgery after forgery to unsuspecting saps."
