Legit eBay seller? ~ khw

[dgo71]

Checking out "khw" on eBay, and he has a ton of old HOF stuff, most all of which is PSA authenticated, but a couple items raised my eyebrow. Specifically, Ernie Lombardi and Cal Hubbard autos that appear to be signed in blue sharpie.
Both men passed in 1977, and while I'm pretty sure sharpies existed then, they definitely weren't widely used and it would seem fairly revolutionary for anyone to have gotten either of these men to sign with one. The majority of the stuff I looked at from this seller looked good, at least to my eye, but these items got me a tad nervous.

Does anyone know anything about the legitimacy of this seller?

Thanks in advance for any insight...hopefully I'll be able to answer a few questions in the near future instead of always posing them....

Good seller although he is sometimes slow to respond via e-mail. He definitely has some nice inventory.

Obviously, if you are looking to add an Ernie Lombardi to your collection, there are lots of great sig options available. I recommend holding out for a nice example of his sig in fountain pen such as this one that I picked up within the last two years.

Kirk is a great seller, have bought from him numerous times. I had the same question you did about blue sharpie and contacted Sanford Corporation and they told me the blue fine tip sharpie was introduced shortly after the black came out in 1964.

As others have said, KHW is a good seller and I've done business with him several times and will do business again with him in the future.

Just bought my Billy Evans from him. Shipped next day....

He's got many toughies, and is very flexible with 'Best Offer'. Knocked ~20% off his orig. BIN price.

Never had any problems dealing with Kirk.
