James,
I hear you, and it does give me some reason to pause, but I have seen real items with terrible descriptions before. Look at the one member here who bought the real single signed GC Alexander ball on ebay. I think it was listed as a generic signed old ball. If I remember correctly, he paid less than $100 for it, or something like that. While this situation is rare, it does happen every once in a while.
I happen to think the auto looks pretty good. That being said, because of the anonymity of the seller and poor description I certainly would not have paid top dollar for it?

Edit: If it is a fake, it is a brilliant one. To pull off a sig that good, including a salutation, without a single hesitation mark anywhere is pretty exceptional.
