Open letter to STAT and Christopher Morales

[Archive]

Posted By: <b>Richard S. Simon</b><p>Wow! A baseball signed by: the following Presidents: Bill Clinton, Lyndon B. Johnson, JFK, George Bush Sr, Jimmy Carter, Richard Nixon, Ronald Reagan, and Gerald Ford.<br />This did not have any COA, but it achieved a high bid of $300 and did not sell according to the website. <br />This piece should be in the Smithsonian or HOF and I am sure (John <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14> ) that the HOF would put this one out.<br />This company also sold, again without a COA, a Ruth-Gehrig cut for the amazing price of $60. Yes $60.<br />There are COA's from Mr Morales scattered through this auction. Take a look.<br />Apparently Proxy Bid runs auctions for companies that are not set up to run their own auctions. <br />This auction is actually for a company called Colbert Auctions.<br />Geez, if this is Stephen Colbert I will be deeply disappointed <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14><img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14>. <br />edited to add this -<br />I just found the rules of this auction company - read this:<br />All items are guaranteed authentic. We will only accept rejection letters from Chris Morales or Stat Authentic. Both companies have the credentials to render an unbiased decision as to the authenticity of autographs. All returns must be accompanied by a rejection letter from one of these two companies only. If you do not agree to these terms, please do not bid on any item in this auction. There are a few reserves, but the majority of the items are being sold without reserve. Good Luck and Happy Bidding! <br />--<br /><br />I refuse to engage in a battle of wits with an unarmed opponent.<br />Unknown author <br />--<br />We made a promise. We swore we'd always remember.<br />No retreat baby, no surrender.<br />The Boss
