It definitely has its risks! But also, I think I still came out ahead on this one, considering what slabbed authenticated autos sell for vs unslabbed unauthenticated ones. Thanks for watching!
I agree - Iâm going to eventually send that into PSA for a second (third?? đ) opinion whenever they have an encapsulation special. Thanks for watching, LouRok!
Haha, yeah 1990 Kingpins are great! I know thatâs not most of my subscribersâ thing, but I do like them, and itâs my channel! đ€Łđ€Łđ€Ł Thanks for watching!
Interesting! Iâve seen some good stuff out there showing how to tell autopen signatures. âZarelli space authenticationâ has a great video detailing the telltale signs of what to look for in an autopen sig and Iâve used that as a resource thatâs helped me identify a number of others to avoid. Still, you may be right, Nate! Thanks for watching!
So many great autographs and really cool on the diamond kings. The Schmidt definitely looks legit. When you turned it at the right angle I could see it looked liked the card was almost etched from the pen pushing down too hard. I wonder if he had to push too hard with the pen he was using and it failed just because of that. They have it listed as one of their 50 reasons to fail not including the blank line. Lol Nice return regardless
Yeah, Iâm definitely getting PSAâs opinion on that one. Someone else in the comments thinks itâs a clubhouse auto maybe through TTM, but Iâm not sure. Thanks for watching, Joe!
@@HighPopProfessor itâs the bowling alley I bowl at and it was my first time seeing pros bowl, so I was a deer in headlights. However, it was drop dead silent when these guys went and I didnât even hear or see what was bothering him. I also heard the rumors (a kid), but I canât confirm.
I canât say Iâve been to watch a big PBA event, but I did get to see Mike Scroggins coaching his son back when I was a high school bowling coach in Texas. I walked by him and then basically did a double take, thinking to myself, âWait, was that justâŠ?â I introduced myself and told him I was a fan and he seemed like a great guy.
â@@HighPopProfessorHe has been having people sign his mail his whole career and life. I read on a message board (I am sure it can be Google'd) where someone sent him an item to hia house and received a funky looking signature. At a show in Philly, the person who got it asked him if he signed it and he said that he didn't know who signed it but he admitted that wasn't signed by him.
If you don't have photos of the original participant getting the signature. I don't give any thought to it as added value. I don't believe any autograph on any item unless there is proof of the original individual who got it.
Hey, different strokes for different folks! I personally disagree with what the market is for PSA 10s! I would never pay the â10 Taxâ but clearly, plenty of others in the hobby are only too happy and willing to do just that! I trust my eye for lower value autos, but for higher value guys like Bonds, Jeter, Griffey, etc. who are more likely to be forged, I put my trust in PSA and Beckett as I believe that they get it right WAY more often than they get it wrong. Their âbatting averageâ is acceptably high to me, and the market seems to agree as authenticated & slabbed autos sell for significantly more than raw ones. I personally wouldnât trust photos in most cases as photoshop and AI have compromised most of those, so again, different strokes đ€·ââïž. Thanks for watching!
Fascinating! I wasnât aware that Schmidt had a ghost signer at any point. Was this a clubhouse phenomenon or maybe a TTM thing? Now Iâm curious! Thanks for watching, Greg!
Sorry, that Maddux is definitely fake. Both first and last name look off. Great other returns. I don't buy un-authenicated autos, but glad to know there are a few real ones out there
Yeah, canât win âem all. My batting average isnât too bad going for unauthenticated autos, but I wouldnât recommend others try it - especially for bigger names. No one is probably trying to forge a Rollie Fingers. đ€·ââïž Thanks for watching, Allen!
I love the video and your idea! Iâm going to try this. Very inexpensive, but entertaining way to collect autos.
It definitely has its risks! But also, I think I still came out ahead on this one, considering what slabbed authenticated autos sell for vs unslabbed unauthenticated ones. Thanks for watching!
Absolutely awesome Chief Petty Officer Feller auto!
There may be more signed cards of Bob Feller out there than unsigned ones!

Thanks for watching, Jon!

That Schmidt may be autopen, he is known to use that.

â@@HighPopProfessor100% clubhouse, save your money.
Nice Duke and Weber. âWho do you think you are I am!!â
Whatever you think you are, he ALREADY IS! đđđ
@@HighPopProfessor Idk if I mentioned it but I was in the crowd that day. Who knew that would become like the biggest bowling clip
NO WAY!! đ€Żđ€Żđ€Ż Wasnât that outburst directed at like a 12-year old kid who was pseudo-heckling him? Amazing!

BAS service needs a lot of improvement. Problems with my last 2 orders as well.
Heck, with the new option of CGC with JSA authenticity, I may look out for THEIR next authentication special! đđđ
That Schmidt looks like it was TTM. He tended to rush through those much more than in person examples at least back when I did TTMs years ago.
Yeah, Iâm going to have to get another opinion on that one. It still looks good to me! Thanks for watching, The Drew!
