I actually did have a couple brief emails with the guy before he pulled the Cobb down. Someone had made him a healthy offer and be wanted my offer, but based on the emails I didn't feel comfortable with the seller. The Cobb matches exactly to one of the examples Ron K. has in his book and after emailing the guy I thought it was weird that you wouldn't mention the signature came from a top dealer.
I appreciate Jim and Rich giving their opinion, but no one seems to want to make a comment before Jim, Rich, Chris, or others give their opinion. The signatures were good on face value, but most likely color copies. The guy had good feedback if I remember correctly and you are backed by PayPal if you were to purchase. Obviously a huge pain in the ass for a refund, but you probably be ok. I just find it a little ironic that there is so much talk now and not when the OP was asking for help
