They could become the industry leader in grading fake cards.

I say give them a chance. They might not ever surpass PSA as far as volume, but they at least could be honorable competition.

zurbs17 · March 15, 2013 10:32AM

Yeah pretty sure that won't happen.

cubfan89 · March 15, 2013 10:41AM

I'm sick of Coach's Corner getting a bad name. They have a Jordan piece that's clearly UDA. My uncle won a lot of 5 single signed baseballs last year and sent them to PSA/DNA. The Frank Tananna, Vance Law, Bobby Shantz, Bobby Doerr and Virgil Trucks balls all passed! I'd take 5/5 any day.

handyman · March 15, 2013 11:19AM

quit while you are ahead then. Try buying a Babe ruth or ty cobb auto from them and see if you can hit 5/5 on those.

GR · March 15, 2013 11:40AM

Chris morales or Drew max would surely give those five the old seal of approval (;

He bought 5 balls that are so common or low demand that it would be ridiculous to forge them. Pardon me if I'm not impressed.

Try a google search for coach's corner fake, and read the first few links.

CCA is still in business?

.Since SCD finally got a conscious or such and banned them did they owe SCD money? Wonder who stll buys their
questionable autographs or even deals with them.Guess proablly feel that they are getting a bargain buying autographs and such.

Good grief.

<< I'm sick of Coach's Corner getting a bad name

Thanks for the laugh!

Yeah a company that stole who knows how much money for selling questionable items. Wonder how they escaped the FBI investigations.

Here is a good questionable item 1927 yankee team ball signed. Wonder why all the autographs look very similar and have not much fading on them as well.

My uncle also won another lot of single signed baseballs not long after he went 5/5. The Ron Cey, Don Baylor, Bobby Boninia, Richard Dotson, Larry Bowa, Carl Erskine and Mike Bilecki also all passed PSA/DNA. He went 12/12 on both baseball lots he won. Not bad!

So cubfan89, how long have you worked for Coach's Corner??

I went 0/0 with Coach's Corner. I'm even happier than cubfan89's uncle who went 12/12.

They had to turn to card grading to make money because they ran out of George Washington signed baseballs in blue sharpie. Had a few flunked items over the years, most notably a book page signed by Jim Thorpe. Thankfully I got my money back. Never again.....

He submitted a Mike Bielecki signed baseball to PSA/DNA.

Does he also send in '70s commons with dinged corners for express grading?

We found 7 more guys who nobody forges because it's pointless to. A new ball is $16. These signed ones sell in the same range or less. Getting them PSA/DNA certified is throwing away money even when genuine.

Nick

cubfan89 · March 16, 2013 5:30AM

Then explain to me Nick: how come the autographed 8x10 of Pat Neshek he won also passed PSA/DNA?

Lol, I'm just joking guys! Of course CC's are the biggest scam going. I can't believe they are still able to flood the market with thousands of fakes a year. I remember reading around 2008 that CC's profited close 1.5 million per year. It's amazing they get away with what they're doing & the FBI just watches.

Coach's Corner Grading

It's a step in the right direction, but what I really am waiting for is them to enter the autograph authentication business.

In fact, I suggested the idea to Coach himself when we were sitting around signing Mohammad, Moses, and Jesus baseballs last night.

Coach's Corner is offering the deal to slab & grade your cards for only $5 each!
Lee & Scott will closely examine each vintage card you send them, switch it out with a reprint card, assign a numerical grade & encapsulate your new reprint card in a tamper proof case! I can't wait to see what their slab looks like! Lol

kingnascar · March 17, 2013 6:44AM

But I can save 50 cents a card on grading fees...

Think I will switch to them............NOT!

GR · March 17, 2013 7:07AM

anybody got some reprint t 206 wagner's we can bury in dirt for a week!?!?!!?! (: MONEYYYYY!!!!!! lol

You're wrong. It's not a tamperproof case. It's a screwdown. I just threw up a little in my mouth.

The missing screw is a nice touch, not to mention how the longer card will get an imprint from the mold of the screwdown case being for a 2 1/2" x 3 1/2" size card. Could be why screw is missing? Crazy Stuff!

cubfan89 · March 17, 2013 11:37AM

It sure looks like their grading career is going to be a smashing success! Lol

bigjed · March 17, 2013 12:29PM

Apparently CC believes inserting a card in a screw down holder and applying a label is "slabbing" it.

corncobb · March 17, 2013 8:39PM

Good thing you guys can tell the difference between the good guys and the bad guys!!!

I almost bought a trimmed million dollar Ty Cobb card!!

I will surely add this Coach's Corner to my list of people to beware of.

cubfan89 · March 17, 2013 9:05PM

I still find it funny that their case has a screw missing? Lol
Does anybody have any info on how they continue to stay in business & flood the market with thousands of fake every month?
