Looks about right.

ripkenintheminors · January 28, 2008 5:16AM

It looks pretty good, but I'd be concerned about the COA.

storm888 · January 28, 2008 5:26AM

A poster here by the screen name of Fredcharles
is a super expert on that signature.

I do not know if he still visits here or not.

goraiders · January 28, 2008 5:34AM

i really bought the photo after a little studying of his auto,
was not really happy about the coa,but the auto really looked good to me,but
i'm no expert by no means on his auto,i knew people here could help.
thanks

ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.....???? Cant say..............last name placement concerns me. Is that common for his IP auto??

goraiders · January 28, 2008 6:34AM

nice card!great card!i'am wondering the same thing?maybe (i hope) theres more room on the photo
so maybe a little more fancy auto?

Is Valley Collectibles a big group? I'm not familiar with them. Not being disrespectful, just asking.

I don't know MJ's signing tendencies and have no clue what type if signer he is for the public. Either way, I would want the autograph to have a better authentication unless I got it from a friend that I trust who got it in person.

goraiders · January 28, 2008 7:01AM

i dont know anything about valley either,i bought a large lot

of cards and mini helmets(mostly gai)and a few autographed jerseys

and this was part of the deal.not a big money part so if not then i'm not really out
much money wise,most of the stuff was raider stuff i wanted!just thought if this
was authentic,it would be icing on the cake!

The sig looks too large for how he signs. His uda sigs are always very small even if the piece is large.

CDsNuts · January 28, 2008 7:15AM

Here's a site that deals with MJ's many different autos: Link

If you scroll down, it looks somehwat like the auto on the "I'm Back" book, but if I had to guess I'd say it's fake.

I got Jordan twice in person and the bottom of the M does not look right. Look at his certified cards and uda photos and the bottow M should almost look like a s or 8 not what yours looks like. Just my opinion.

For MJ, I'd stick with his UDA items. They will be easier to resell down the road.

envoy98 · January 28, 2008 10:58AM

The M looks a little suspect to me and the placement of the J in the middle of "Michael" is odd as well. I'm not a "super expert" on MJ autos but I'd be a little surprised if it passed. Everything else on the auto looks pretty good to me though.

<< <i>For MJ, I'd stick with his UDA items. They will be easier to resell down the road. >>

Agreed. They will cost a little more, but the investment will pay off. Once upon a time when I decided that I had to have an MJ sig UDA was the only option I would consider.

whats it cost to get it psa approved?

is it even worth going thru the perocess?not trying to make

money ,just looks good on my wall,it would look better(in my mind)to know for sure?

JeremyDie1 · January 28, 2008 12:28PM

$100 for PSA approved

goraiders · January 28, 2008 12:33PM

100$ for proably what 25%=no
75%=yes

tough call??

what do ypu think i should do???

anybody else think its worth it?

thanks for all the input so far!

ripkenintheminors · January 28, 2008 12:34PM

Is it rude of me to ask what is cost?

thenavarro · January 28, 2008 12:37PM

GoRaiders,

If you list it on ebay, you can get a PSA/DNA quick opinion for under $10.00. Then, if they say "Likely Genuine", you can submit to them for a LOA and they will deduct the price you paid for the quick opinon from the authentication cost.

Just put a unrealistic opening bid so no one bids and list it and then get the quick opinion. Will cost you a few bucks in ebay listing fees, and $10.00 or so for the quick opinion, but then you will know whether or not sending it to PSA/DNA is a viable option.

Take care,

Mike

goraiders · January 28, 2008 12:40PM

not at all,i bought a lot of cards and mini helmets mostly raider stuff i wanted,stabler

I had 5 real Jordan auto's. 3 from uda and 2 which I got in person. All 5 looked the same. The 2 I got in person I had to wait at a golf tournament for 9 hours each time. If you paid less than $200 for the auto is probably is not real. Anybody who got a Jordan auto in person had to put alot of time and luck to get it and they would not sell it for less than that amount. I had 2 autograph dealers offer me $200 for the photo after Jordan had signed it.

jordan auto-real or fake?
