Colossal Auctions?

What their return policy really says is don't expect to ever actually get a refund, because no matter what your forensic expert says, we will find one who will say it's good. And once that happens, you are SOOL.

So Barry, what you're saying is, don't make a COLOSSAL mistake, right?

Yep...run the other way as fast as possible!

Wow, you can't even see the descriptions of the autographed stuff. What a bizarre marketing scheme.

Was Mathewson ever the cashier of a bank? If not why was he signing as cashier?

"Mathewson" signed as cashier because that is the only old check that they could find when Matty had his private signing session.
FYI - He still holds the line on his pricing. $12 for flats, $20 for baseballs.
Matty does not believe in overcharging for his autograph.
This business and website is one of the stranger things in this hobby/business and that is saying something.

Here is a link to the prices from their last auction. Ruth and Mathewson autos for under 400 bucks! Hughie Jennings for 150! Anson and Plank for 300 each! "J. Collins and J. Kelly" lot for 225 total!

Unreal prices for according autographs. What an interesting website.

Max,
You have to ask for these things when you want them. They just don't appear out of thin air .
Send a letter to Colossal and I bet you can have one in a few days .
Matty was also a poker player, I am going to write to Colossal now and ask for a Matty signed Ace of Hearts.

In many cases; just a little description would help their prices. I looked at that lot of the 61 Fleers which were PSA graded. Nothing wrong with adding a little text as to the player's name and the grade. I did not see any qualifiers, but in either case, legit grading company, legit cards. Add some detail and make yourself some money
