I saw a few weeks ago Cap Anson and Joe Jackson signed baseballs selling on that site for a couple of hundred bucks.
If an item sells for 0.001% of it's true value, can you really with a straight face call it a forgery?
That would be like if you bid and win a Ferrari online for $1,000 and then when it arrives, it's actually a kit car Fiero with no engine. Imagine how ridiculous it would be if you sue because you expected a "real" Ferrari for $1,000 and now you're a "victim" of fraud.
People would laugh at you, not feel bad for you.
