That sort of reinforces the notion that with a lot of collectors the authentication (and overt evidence of it) is just as important as the piece itself. That right there is the result of some great marketing.

Yes, as well as the result of people being previously burned by bad material. Even if what they have is bad, a bogus cert can provide bogus peace of mind.

Good point Wayne, but wouldn't a sticker on the back provide the same assurance?

For many it would, but I can imagine someone valuing the display value of a sticker. SEE EVERYONE! SOME "EXPERT" SAYS IT'S REAL!

Am I wrong here, but do we really care where they place the sticker on a fake? Maybe I am wrong, but that Mantle looks bad to me.

No I don't think so. We were all commenting in general after it was pointed out that many times customers rq that the stickers be put on the obverse of an item rather than the back.

Thanks Jeff. I would agree placement on a good item is very important and I certainly would rather have it on the back, but I guess if someone pays their money and just has to have it on the front oh well.

I think we all agree that the Mantle is bad. The sticker talk was a sidebar discussion.
