Posted By: <b>DD</b><p>Are the AAU guys also on the list of certified forged document specialists. Drew Max? Sounds like one of Homer Simpson's bosses. His accreditation includes apprenticing under his boss who is now retired (Howard Doulder). he also states he is a diplomate with the American Board of Forensic Examiners, even though his resume (<a href="http://www.aaunlimited.net/drew_v__max.htm" target="_new">http://www.aaunlimited.net/drew_v__max.htm</a>) does not indicated one of the following requirements to be a diplomate: Certified Forensic Consultant, Certified Forensic Nurse, Certified Forensic Accountant, or Certified Medical Investigator®. <br /><br />Could be an oversight. Could also be with these non-mainstram, specialist organizations, that no one has either verified their credentials, or checked to see if they employ them in the manner they were trained to do so.<br /><br />Also from the AAU site is this beautiful piece of work:<br /><br />BEWARE<br />OF DEALERS WHO ALSO DO AUTHENTICATIONS & OTHER SO-CALLED UNQUALIFIED &/OR INACCURATE EXAMINERS<br /><br /> It is logical and expected for autograph dealers to examine and attempt to authenticate merchandise they are buying for future resale, after all this has been done for years.<br /><br /> It is illogical and unethical, If not deemed illegal, for any dealer to examine, for a fee, any of their competitors autographs. Just think of the possible everyday occurrence that could lead to the impropriety where your Babe Ruth autograph is deemed to be not authentic but they just happen to have an authentic one for you at thousands of dollars of profit to them; or do they down grade it and offer you a fraction of what it is worth? Does a diamond dealer take his diamonds to one of his competitors for grading and appraisal? Does Ford submit a Mustang for road testing to GM? Would you submit your autographs, for examination, to one of your competitors? Of course not, it would be ludicrous! <br /><br /> THE CONFLICT OF INTEREST IS MIND BOGGLING FOR YOUR BUSINESS AND THE INDUSTRY AS A WHOLE!
