AGS autograph service? ever hear of 'em?
 
This eBay seller has a bunch of autographed slabbed cards from a company called AGS...the slabs look just like psa.

Has anyone ever heard of this company the Mantle autograph is obviously a fake.

I never heard of them, and several of their items look cruddy. Look at the four person signed card w Mays and Clemente on it. eeek.

well if this gives you any idea. They are authenticating for coachs corner as well.

Well, that says it all...AGS = Autograph Garbage Services

Just wondering if any of you guys have done any psa/dna quick opinions on any of the cards? I am working on a 1954 Bowman signed set and did a quick opinion on one I needed and it passed and got the seller to end the item early for me. Not saying that there aren't bad signatures listed because some just don't look good. I have no clue who AGS is either but I don't think they are authenitcating for coach's corner apparently the seller is consigning cards to coach's corner was the explaination I got when messaging him.

Nothing like using an unknown authentication service to grade autographs of the greatest players from the 50's and 60's. Boy he's got them all! Anyone who bids on this stuff deserves to get burned.
PS - is it just me or do they all look like they were just signed yesterday?:confused:
PPS - I think some of those Mantle reprints were issued after he died!?!:eek:

Getting a PSA quick opinion is very smart, i'm glad to hear it passed. however, I just don't feel 100% comfortable when someone is selling some items that are real and others that are fake.

Good luck completing the '54 Bowman set! that is going to be very impressive.
