Very true, Chuck. Fortunately, Mr. Bassett, got his money back. There was another story of "1919 Black Sox" team-signed ball certed by Morales. It originated from Coach's Corner and sold for almost 3K. It was then sold at a store on the west coast for 10K. Fortunately, the buyer did some research, and discovered it was a forgery. That buyer got their money back.

But what about the thousands of other items that are flipped for 5-20 times after the Roach's Corner purchase price where the impulse buyer still believes they own a Christy Mathewson signed baseball; or a Mike "King" Kelly signed ball; or a Geronimo cut sig; or a Mark Twain/Samuel Clemens signed letter; or those hundreds of Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig signed bats.

Because we're always talking sports over here, we (I do) never think about all of that other crap that Morales "authenticates." Music-related autographs like Beatles signed albums; Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix and Jim Morrison cut sigs, letters, and lyric sheets.

You're right, Chuck, I guess those millions of dollars of crap out there don't matter.
