For years I tried to get Steiner Sports (Brandon Steiner) to help fight autograph fraud in the hobby. I must have emailed Steiner Sports over a dozen times about certain issues. I remember two years ago I emailed Steiner Sports about a website that was selling over 100 Derek Jeter forgeries. The forgeries were the GAI (Steve Sipe) certed forgeries. There I was going out of my way to protect the interests of Steiner Sports and nothing, and now they want to advertise their over-priced items here!!! I vote "No." The heck with them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you, Leon, for not dealing with them.
I think that anybody who wants to buy items from Steiner Sports can go to them directly and buy from them. If Steiner can give a discount for an affiliate then an individual can at least ask for a discount if they decide to go to them directly. Also, I might be wrong but I would think that if you knew what Steiner items looked like, you could go to eBay and get them at cheaper price if you were patient..... Finally, when I think of "created collectibles" I think of Beanie Babies and Danbury Mint plates. Both of which were hyped when they were made, initally overpriced and that sell for much less (if they sell at all) now. David

No way. This website is better than that. Have you seen their pricing structure and discounts? They mark up the price then give you a 10% off code. Pitiful. They are a company for the casual collector or somebody desperately wanting that Mo or Jeter autograph. Not for us!

I am going to tell them NO. Is it ok if I cut and paste your message above? If they want to be in the sports memorabilia business they should join the fight with us....

Good for you Leon!
Steiner is part of what is wrong with our hobby. They are pricing the kids out and once we are done collecting where will the hobby be? $300 for a Jeter or Maddox ball- like they need the extra $$$$ Charlie.

"Hi Ann I run a forum of extremely avid collectors. We look out for the hobby a lot. I personally have helped the Secret Service, FBI, Postal Inspector and Dept. Of Homeland Security, over the last year in rooting out fraud. Unfortunately it seems Steiner is only out for the money. Here is a message you might pass on, if anyone caresﾅI cut and pasted it from my forum, and it is from Christopher Williams, who helps the hobby a ton. "For years I tried to get Steiner Sports (Brandon Steiner) to help fight autograph fraud in the hobby. I must have emailed Steiner Sports over a dozen times about certain issues. I remember two years ago I emailed Steiner Sports about a website that was selling over 100 Derek Jeter forgeries. The forgeries were the GAI (Steve Sipe) certed forgeries. There I as going out of my way to protect the interests of Steiner Sports and nothing, and now they want to advertise their over-priced items here!!! I vote "No." The heck with them!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So with that being said I will respectfully decline working with Steiner until Steiner proves they help more than their pockets. Thanks leon"
