All my dealings with this company have been great. Not only is Dave a pleasure to work with, I feel his staff offers the highest level of customer service. I have bought a couple of full size baseball tropies and those items need to be crated and trucked. The staff took my concerns very seriously and made sure the items arived safe and secure. just a great company!

I would be curious as to the process they go through to make sure the autos were authentic before they put them up for auction. I once found a few bad autos in a football lot they had when I was looking at their auctions and contacted them about it. To their credit they pulled them, but also, they were such obvious fakes it made me wonder what process they go through or who looks at them.

They also had a near signed 1987 Topps set in an auction a few months ago that I was going to bid on but saw what I thought were too many questionable signatures, especially some of the stars. I did not contact them about that one.

I noticed in a couple of their larger autograph lots this auction, they say they can not guarantee every signature since the lot is so big.

With all that said, I trust them as a good company, but honestly, if you are buying autographs, you really need to do your own diligent homework IMO to feel good about what you buy from anyone.

Well written, VintageChris. Know what you are buying. There are very few people in this industry I trust when it comes to autographs, which is the main reason why I know "my autographs." Again, know what you are buying.

As some who has both purchased and consigned items to Hunt I have found them to be both pleasant to deal and professional. I believe that one of the staff worked for PSA for about 10 years. I have had several items returned to me due questions about the authenticity of the item.
