Ridiculous Ted Williams Joe DiMaggio Forgeries

[mr2686]

Do you think these forgeries are getting worse because the sellers are so dumb, or is it that the buyers are just plain stoooooooopid?

A little bit of both, Mike. The seller's starting bid prices will not even attract the dopey buyers on Ebay.

Whats a matter with those? LOVELY child like, or perhaps a dog scribbled them w a paw.

BUT, the Williams comes w a stand, original box and the "buyer should no trouble obtaining certification if needed". From who, a blind FDE?

Ebay has removed both auctions.

Probably just someone that didn't know any better as evidenced by the "starting" bid. Even if they were legit they would have never sold at those numbers.

I remember seeing that Ted. I kinda had a WTF? moment when I saw it.. I wonder if the thought process behind creating it, was that maybe they'll think "it's so ridiculously bad that it has to be real"? Kinda looks like the work of that "Corned beef hash" guy.
