One begins by drinking a Cyanide laced glass of arsenic. What a Fiasco. Two of the biggest crooks with fakes, and their partner in slime, Morales. And that company on another thread, thats Coach's coma south.

LOL and cry both at the line by Trythall, that there are a lot of forgeries out there.

If you can't trust the Bucks County Courier Times, who can you trust?

My question to STAT is, when they appraise stuff, do they appraise it at the prices that their stuff would sell for, or the price it would sell for if another auction house handled it and if other authenticators gave it the thumbs up?

And so Stevens worked the retail portion of a museum and therefore he can help a guy who worked for a baseball card company authenticate Sitting Bull and Abraham Lincoln?

Funniest article of the year so far and I don't think humor was the intent of this article. That's the sign of some fine journalism, lady.

A quote from the article

"Unless you saw the items signed, it's an opinion," Stevens said. "We sell our opinion, based on our names and credentials."


So that must be the reason their "authenticated" items sell for so much less than other, more reputable, authenticators.
