Hey guys what do you think of gai autograph authentication. I read online that some players mantle/dimaggio that they authenticate are very questionable. I just won this auction and I want to make sure it's authentic as the autograph is much more valuable than the card (high likelyhood for fraud). What do you think?

    This is a great site for ali autos. Has a ton of legit examples and even what some common fakes look like.

    generally though, stay away from GAI

    Liquidating my collection for the 3rd and final time. Time for others to enjoy what I have enjoyed over the last several decades. Money could be put to better use.

    The seller has quite a few VERY questionable GAI auto's in current and completed auctions, also selling a fake 2001 Fleer Pujols Auto RC (were sold at the fleer bankruptcy sale unsigned now all kinds of idiots are selling them weekly on ebay , he also sold a infamous topps rookie premiere auto (distributed to players unsigned as keepsakes, scammers got a hold of many and signed them.. adding the topps hologram from a cheaper card), and a Derek Jeter that gets faked all the time (people just hand number it and warm up a sticker from a garbage player autograph peel it off and sticker on a highend player, take a $1 card to a $100 dollar card. This wouldn't be the first seller to move fake stuff through GAI and blame the authenticator for any issues down the road. I'm not saying 100% that any of this stuff is fake (except for the Pujols) but there are was too many signs that say stay away from this seller.
