If you see a Cal Ripkin autographed baseball, it is a forgery!

It is a myth that what you paid for a card determines what your sale price is.

What are you saying?

You can probably substitute PSA with a well known sports signature authenticator whose initials include an S and a J, as well as a few other TPGs and so-called autograph experts.

"Set break" actually means what the name implies.

When used in a sales listing, the term 'complete set' means that the set is actually complete.

There are obvious forgeries in TPG holders. People need to look at the card not just the holder.

The 1952 Topps Mantle is a "grail" card, not just a normal double print that you can buy in almost any auction
