I thought "estate auctions" were typically the personal belongings of the estate - furniture, paintings, jewelry and maybe collectibles once in a while.

How are these estates chock full of rare collectibles with newly minted FDE COAs? Does the auction company supplement the true estate auctions with inventory they get elsewhere? Like Coaches Corner?

Over/under on when ACE/Priddy will be banned from eBay? How can one repeatedly cert such cartoonish imitations and expect to maintain the charade for any length of time?

Under for Priddy.
That Jackie is too funny, looks like it was on a roller coaster, Jackie heading up the roller coaster and Robinson heading down the roller coaster.

It's amazing that these people who make these "estate" purchases always seem to find Drew Max, Justin Priddy, Ted Taylor and Chris Morales to cert the autographs that come out of "estate" sales.

Is it possible that so-called collectors go to Drew Max to authenticate their autographs because he's on the Pawn Stars show and his proud announcement "I'm a Forensic Document Examiner." Of course, those same so-called collectors never hear about his screw-ups on the show. Makes me sick.

I, for one, have always known how widespread the forgery problem is in the hobby. There are probably fewer than ten people who produce those vintage (Ruth, Gehrig, Matty, etc.) sigs that now show up at a ton of local auctions, online auctions, etc. The buyers (who know exactly what they are purchasing) are finding new outlets to distribute that vintage garbage. Almost all of that crap gets removed from Ebay, and with all of these new local and online auctions popping up, the distributors of that vintage crap have no shortage of outlets.

Why do they always go for so many Ruth signatures? If I wanted people to believe in my stuff I would not want six Ruth autos at $10 a piece.

As Sir Elton John said in one of his classics:

" Its sad, so sad, its a sad sad situation"...But, in the case of Poopy, Drew Muck, Moorales, Scat Authentic and others, Sorry doesn't seem to be the hardest word. Just give me your money, and I'll give you a COA

Amazing isn't it. Look at Roach's Corner this month. Sixteen (16) various Babe Ruth autographs.

I am surprised that they don't just advertise a private signing with the Babe and you can send in whatever you want signed, Bobby Brown AL balls, 1999 lithos, 1961 Golden Press Babe Ruth card,,, imagine the thrill of getting those signed,,, the boys at CC can do it for you!!

there are two kinds of babe ruth forgeries, one is just a higher class of forgeries, they go one way to the abc, xyz and get certed and sell for 30,000 t0 100,000 dollars each, and trade in the legitimate market, including the largest online auction place, and the sloppier ones go to other places to get certs and sell for 500 to 2000 dollars and trade on the flea market circuit.
