Must be that Platinum is now the new element of choice for the Florida crooks.
Better than gold or silver ,,, you guys do know how to pick your elements.

If Ebay wasn't so heavily-populated with the gullible and delusional, those sellers of the "Florida" forgeries would be out of business.

And that Forensic BS. The majority of that garbage is machine-produced and yet Rocchi claims to have forensically examined them.

The newer "Florida" forgeries are hand-signed and they are just as pathetic.

This is from the 2016 National in Atlantic City.

Below are photos of the "Florida" forgeries.

Yup. Same exact "product" that typically comes with a "forensic" COA from any number of ebay sellers.

What a hobby...

There seems to be no way to stop this garbage from entering the marketplace and continuing to stain and eventually ruining this hobby and its sometimes already shaky reputation with the collecting public and the non collecting public as well.
They say an informed buyer is the best defense against this happening but that is in no way true as long as criminals can hide behind fake credentials and worthless COAs and the SCOTUS is there as their defense, even going so far as to post SCOTUS rulings on their sale pages. Plus eBay knowingly allows this to happen and is complicit in allowing this to continue unabated.
You got to love this hobby !!!

As Richard as commented previously in other threads, Ebay is an enabler of this garbage.

I agree 100% . An enabler with no recourse against for the buyer .
