The Mantle is a forgery.

[David Atkatz]

The forgeries you're wasting your money on, Bobby, aren't even close.
Perhaps you should do a bit more homework before buying your next one.

bobby doerr looks off as well.

in south Alabama there is not many places to buy cards besides Walmart.

I bought these items in the 90s probably of QVC they all have certs. for what that is worth.

I have understood for years who and were to buy items.for years and I have not bought a signed item not certified by PSA or factory items.

that didn't change the fact that I still had these items that needed real authentication and until I found this site my only option was to spend money on something I wasn't confident with.

I have a couple more like Jordan and Montana I wouldn't mind yall telling me there junk also? thanks for your info.

thanks bobby

I live in south east Missouri, closest shop is over 2 hours away in either Memphis or St. Louis.

still gotta do your research on items before dropping money like that on items.

Uhh... no, Bobby. You had another option. NOT to spend money on something you weren't confident with.

And essentially saying "It's not my fault because I hadn't yet found you guys to do my work for me" is not the best excuse.

jordan is one of the most faked autographs out there, so most likely yes.

I didn't think there were fake Doerr's out there but this one has proven me wrong.

Oddly, the only people who take your recommended approach are people who don't need to be told to do so. Coming on here for opinions is great if you've already done your research;otherwise, 5 times out of 10 (perhaps even more), you are just getting opinions from people who know very little more than you do.

Learning whose opinions you should ignore is half of the research. There are even a couple of guys here who I use as negative barometers.

Now why make a comment like this unless you are going to name names?

My point is that you can't trust many of the opinions you read in this sub-forum. There isn't any need for me to give any names; however, I understand completely, and I admit that a good old-fashioned sub-forum brawl would probably be more interesting than what we've gotten in here over the last year.

On the positive side, I would list the last two posters in this thread.

wow...no one was up to the challenge. That really surprises me.
