If anyone communicates with Ebay seller Dacardworld, hopefully someone can inform him of his forged/counterfeit Willie Mays listing.

For me, that stuff takes a long time to learn I just passed a decade of reading stuff here, and still can only get the big ones like Mantle and Ruth right a bit over half the time. Probably still in the coin toss range. What for me is quick are the distractions, so I always start with those. Is the object "right"? Did it exist while the signer was alive? Does it make any sense at all? What's odd is that I can eliminate quite a few that way. I also don't buy any expensive ones, which helps. But odds are even some of my cheap ones are fake in some way. |

Every week, my "eye" picks up something new about a particular autograph. The learning process never stops. And to be honest, I have tried numerous times (ask Steve Zarelli) "to stop caring" and walk away from this, but when I observe an issue like forged/counterfeit cards, I can sucked back in, because I do care. Like Michael Corleone once said "Just when I thought I was out--they pull me back in." |
