As for the ticket. Until irrefutable information comes out, which Chris seems to be withholding, the ticket and signature are good. As much as I am always in Chris's corner (hi Chris) I think this situation could have been handled better. At very minimum I would have hoped that Chris would have privately shared the smoking gun, if there is one, with H & S and the consignor.

I've gotten lost on this story. Someone is going to spend 7000+ on this autographed item. I enjoy Chris' videos and contributions, but unless there is DEFINITE PROOF that it is a fake, stub/autograph and all, then the usual "leap of faith" needs to be taken by the bidders. It really doesn't matter who the COA is from, etc. because ITS ALL OPINION, as none of us saw Babe sit down that day and sign that VERY ITEM.

I am not knowledgable like a lot of you guys, but to me, that looks like it could be close enough to a certain as can be Babe to allow a little variation, and it still be good.

"This situation could have been handled better"?

There should not have been a "situation"!

Chris hasn't "shared," because Chris has nothing to share.

(And yes, it's been obvious that you're "always in Chris's corner.'

Chris does more good stuff than you have enemies on the board. And that is saying something!!

Just because I don't care for the way this one thing has been handled doesn't mean I don't appreciate what Chris has done and does. I do, a lot.

But I doubt he'll be doing much, anymore.
