Default Watch List help needed

Considering adding this seller to the watch list. A person submitted
information after she got a "bad" feeling about this seller. They
wouldn't tell her where the items came from other than "in person" and
they wouldn't scan the sigs closer for her...

When I looked, I knew nothing about country singer sigs so can't judge
the sigs.

No red flags like ID changes, bad feedback or unusual activity or
complaints etc. HOWEVER I did have some concerns over a new seller
offering a bunch of multiples of the same harder to get singers.
Sounds to me a little fishy and I know sometimes people test the
waters then begin selling fakes.

Now here's the ID: http://myworld.ebay.com/hbuford2005

Can someone tell me opinions on these sigs? Are they even close?
Does anyone notice anything unusual like misspellings/wrong photos
used and stuff like that? I really would like something else to go on
before putting someone on the list. However the refusal to do the
scans and answer the questions is reason enough MAYBE to be on the
watch list.

are you interested in any special autographs?
or do you want a list about "this one seems to be real, this not..."?

If anyone is familiar with the sigs because they've either gotten them
a few times etc, I'd like an opinion if they think these are legit or
not... any and all

Thanks!

The Red Flag on this person is that the Item # is kept private after
the sells. That's the first time I've seen something like that before.

Sue,

I looked at the items this person has for sale. I didn't see any
misspellings or wrong photos.
I have a lot of country autographs in my collection. I have all the
people for sale except Brian Bloom. Here's my opinion on the items for
sale:

Keith Urban-looks good-I have 1 of his
Kenny Chesneys-looks good-I have 5 of his
Tim McGraws-looks good-I have 2 of his
Shania Twain-looks good-I have 10 of her
Brian Bloom-?-don't have this one

It is hard to tell from the pictures if their real or copies or
preprints.
I don't think I would buy from them based on the pictures not being
closer and the fact that the item number is hidden in the feedback
section. The Autographs do look real based on the ones in my collection
and from what I know. But again not sure if they're real, copies, or
preprints.

Hope that helped.

Thanks Mike; that hidden feedback along with their unwillingness to
scan large photos upon request and also their unwillingness to state
where the items came from exactly is of concern. I am going to put
them on the watch list with this info, but no way for a long time can
they be upgraded. Right now it's a caution thing only. I think
there's enough to be cautious about.
