Authenticity The last 20 years has seen an explosion
in the autographed memorabilia market. With it has also come an increase in the number of
forgeries in the market. What is a collector to do? The best way to protect oneself is to be there personally when their
items are signed. Unfortunately, for a majority of people,
this is not an option. Most collectors need to purchase their
memorabilia, but with the large number of sports memorabilia dealers
and the wide range of prices, this can be a challenge for even the
most knowledgeable collector. One rule of thumb to follow, if the
price seems too good to be true, it probably is. Another rule to
follow is to not just expect, but demand a Certificate of
Authenticity. However, in some cases, this
will not protect you if given by a non-reputable
source. |
