Ebay seller ....
I saw a listing of a Natalie Portman and Liam Neeson signed index
card. Read the description and here his response: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...EBWA%3AIT&rd=1 I asked him if he was a dealer and what his number was and if he could state where he got the items so I could research a little on it. Here's the response I got: Greengs, First of all, I am a physician and collector--seldom a seller--I am a regular member of UACC--regular dues paying members do NOT have numbers--only registered full time dealers have numbers--I am on a first name basis with many of the officers of UACC as I enjoy taking my kids to the UACC shows. As stated on our ebay page, ALL signing info will be given to the winner--All items were obtained in person and are real--If you have doubts, don't bid---I know a fake a million miles away and these are NOT-- Thanks, Jon This crap about not receiving information until AFTER a winning bid is craop..... Here's my response: Jon, I am assuming this is the email about the Neeson/Portman signatures. Being a phsician has nothing to do with collecting and or knowledge of autograph collecting... and I too am a collector (for 10 years now) and understand the UACC membership verses dealer. So no need to instruct me on that. I wasn't clear about the way it was phrased; dealers are also members... By the way, UACC shows have many fakes in their books. Just because something is bought from a UACC registered dealer does not make the item legit... I have seen very reputible dealers have some slip through their fingers. No one can be versed on every signature. And for the record, I've personally witnessed some GREAT forgeries out there. The fact that you will not provide signing information until after the auction is suspicious. At that point, I am committed to buy something with no background on it and if I don't like your response on how it was obtained, I risk negative feedback. I don't know you from Adam. Therefore, as a buyer, it's my job to ask questions before buying. If you are indeed a physician, you are obviously intelligent. Therefore why would you not provide this information now? And to sell these items for only $5? Why would a physician who has time to list items on Ebay, not answer questions? And why so low a price if you are a collector and attend UACC shows? You'd know the value of the item would you not? I guess I sounded snippy if this is the person with the Neeson/Portman because my emails went unanswered. To me, this is the sign of one of two things. I may be wrong, but as I see it, you are either hiding something or don't wish to be bothered. If the latter is the case, you ought not to be in business. A true business person would honor a customer by answering their questions I just wanted to know how you got it so I can research it. I don't know you and though you may be an upstanding person, for all I know you could be a blatant forger. Sorry if you're offended, if you asked me the same questions, I'd answer knowing you don't know me. Thanks for your time. Sue www.starwarsautographcollecting.com http://dahoov2.topcities.com |
