Does anyone in the autograph hobby get along with anyone else in the autograph hobby?

HAHA. I have been thinking exactly this the more I look around these boards. I haven't figured out which is worse the bickering the self proclaimed auto experts or the self proclaimed t206 experts. I am glad I am not an "expert" in anything.

Andy has got it right. I have tried to gain knowledge and have on here, but man, not being an expert or "expert" in anything, this constant back and forth stuff is getting out of hand. Makes me kinda sick.

LOL. I have wondered the same thing myself.

As far as TPAs and authenticators go, they are offering an opinion. If you tend to not like or trust that opinion, then don't use them. There is really no point in attacking each other or whoever is doing the authenticating.

I hate fakes and frauds as much as anyone. My goal is to build a nice collection and do my best to stay away from them. How I do that is up to me becuse it will be my collection in the end. Consider yourselves fortunate that you are educated collectors and enjoy the hobby.

Geez, my thoughts exactly. Enough drama for a new series, "The Real Authenticators of Net54."

everything reality is a war or star now...pawn stars, rock stars, storage wars, shipping wars. i'm firing off a letter to a&e proposing an "authenticator wars" featuring richard, chris, travis, and david. they would travel across the country to the various auction houses looking over autograph consignments while sniping and snarking at each other. the auction houses would save on the psa/jsa fees and i think it would go over middle america well....win/win for everyone.

Since I am credited first I want the most money for this deal .
Chad let me know what they say, I could probably use a good agent. Are you up for the job?
I want it to be on F/X though, they have some quality shows (Justified for one) and I want this to be a quality show.

After reading this thread today I watched the episode.

Am I the only one who recognized the guy selling the triple-auto Tristar photo? He was set up at the National in Chicago last year.

My buddy and I tried to buy a 1988 Jordan SLU, but he wanted well over book. He told me "Come back on Sunday, and if it's still here I'll sell it to you at your price." I ended up buying one from another dealer at my price the same day. That was crazy to see him on Pawn Stars!

I really thought someone else besides me recognized that guy.

I would watch... but then I may not have a reason to come here and read the autograph posts anymore.

Oh well there are still enough other things on here to read.
