My Son and I are getting involved into buying signed baseball items and we came across this site on ebay.
This "Sports World Hall of Fame Reggie Jackson's Master Distributor" Has sold over 12000 items in the last year. The prices are very low and hard to believe.Is this place for real? If not how can they get away with selling so much and no one complains? If they are for real I'm very amazed. Thanks for the help. I'll be coming here more often. You guys are very smart. Thanks...Mark

Autographs are probably the scarest segment of the market to get into. Several studies of been done that show taht 75% or more of all sigs out there are bogus. And a COA is no gaurentee that it is real. Ther is only person in the hobby that I trust when it comes to sig, Mike Gutierrez. I am sure there are good experts too, and others here can point you to them. If signed stuff is important, I'd recommend getting themself yourself at a show, if possible. That way, you have no doubt that your sig is real.

I wish you best in this endevore, and keep asking questions. It's the best thing you can do.

Mark, I think you need to be aware that this site concerns itself primarily with pre WWII baseball cards.

I've never dealt with this seller or with Reggiejackson.com. I beleive reggiejackson.com, which sells autographs, is owned by Reggie Jackson. As far as I know, it's a reputable company, and their autographs come with a RJ hologram and COA.

Also, from from what I have read, all of the reggiejackson.com stuff (with the holo) is either in person signings (with a rj.com employee witnessing) or at a distance but with the signer under contract to sign X amount of balls and with the signer signing an affedavit that he signed the stuff.

I'm not advocating or endorsing, just relaying the third person info I know of.
