Cleaning up the "Hobby"

Posted By: Lee Behrens

I think anyone buying "game used", "authentic" or what ever you want to call them item are taking a serious gamble with there money because if you did not get it personally i don't believe anyone can be absolutely sure it is what they say it is. I just can not be confident that any of it is what they say it is.

Heck I have a game worn batting glove with the number 12 on it. With out personally seeing Wade Boggs throw it up to me and me catching it how in the world can you authenticate something like that?

This is why I will never pay for an autograph, or specific game used equipment.

By the Way, I think our buddy Al is a big blow hard, how he can not authenticate a card from a common issue, by himself is shameful for all he thinks he is.
