advice Michael Jordan

[theshleps]

I gave a signed ud Michael Jordan baseball card to JSA as I wanted to sell it. It was an IP autograph at Arizona fall league- 100% legit. They rejected it. I only sent it as I want to sell it. If you were me would you submit to PSA or just try to sign without a LOA?

I don't think you'll find many serious buyers willing to buy a Jordan without a cert.

There are plenty of Jordan collectors well enough comfortable with his signature that if it is good you can move it. Obviously your market, and the likely your price, would be larger with a cert. I've been looking for a Jordan baseball card auto for awhile, would love to see a scan. Lately I've seen JSA and PSA reject many of the big modern stars (Jordan, Harper, Trout, and lately Kris Bryant) if they comfortable with it. I had a Harper fail PSA that I knew was unquestionable good, but the signature was rushed and I get why they wouldn't cert it.

Send me your email and I will send a scan once I get it back. May be a couple of weeks. Gotten in person by a friend of mine whose collection I bought all of 10+ years ago- another in person grapher like myself
any other serious inquiries send me emails too.

Well, then you didn't get it yourself. I've had a number of experiences with friends getting autographs that weren't genuine. Not malicious, usually just secretarial.

Another case of JSA not knowing everything and people getting screwed because of it. I have a Muhammad Ali glove signed at a show that they shot down so i can't sell it in an auction now. But they can put there cert on a forgery and it goes to auction like this one...

both items fake.

not sure how he would have gone to Fall league got 1,000 cards signed and any were secretarial. All in ll I bought 10,000 cards from him and new him personally and this is the only one that has been questioned. All the others Jeter, Piazza, etc passed. I have been told that JSA routinely rejects Ali, Jordan etc. They recently rejected one I sent in and then I resent and it was approved by same authenticator. Just frustrating that they can reject real stuff which then becomes much harder to sell and at the same time autheiticate other items obviously fake
I trust people like Jim Stinson, Rich Simon etc much more and I have been collecting since 1967 and know a few things too. But the way it is you sometimes want to play the game to get a higher price
Once I get it back will post
