Fantastic responses. Great information!!!
Let's change direction a little bit. One of the guy's in the office told me that they know there are fakes out there and that is why they put the disclaimer in. They can't check everything. What do I want them to do? How would you answer that question? Keep in mind that this place is huge and they sell everything. Sports collectibles is probably a tiny fraction of their total sales. They may feel like it is not economically justifiable to employ an expert in that area. Maybe they legitimately feel that the disclaimer is a step towards fighting it. I would think that any legitimate seller would never sell their stuff through a place that tells buyers they believe their stuff is fake. |

Quote:
A legitimate, ethical business operator who receives a ton of complaints on one small portion of their business doesn't just add a disclaimer. They will either figure out a way to deal with the issues giving rise to the complaints, or shut down that small portion of their operation (i.e. stop taking autograph consignments). The only thing the disclaimer is attempting to fight is the deluge of buyer complaints. If an operator is determined to cross that ethical line without any regard for the damage to his business and reputation, pointing a finger at them and saying "You should stop that!" is not going to have any effect.
