Expert: Michael Kasmar - 9/7/2008

Question
Dear Sir,
    I am interested in purchasing a 2 different footballs on EBAY from a seller that claims they are legit and come with a COA which I know can be printed on any computer. The first, is a Giants ball is signed by Eli Manning and David Tyree for a total of $20 incl S&H. The other is Georgia football signed by Knowshon Moreno, again for $20. Sounds to good to be true. The listings can be found on EBAY from seller known as graphs-r-us. Any assistance on the legitimacy of these would be greatly appreciated.

Thank You
Tom Ferrigno

For a few bucks you can get it quick opinioned and if it comes back as good, it will WAY increase the value of the item.  If it comes back as bad, they could potentially be kicked off ebay for peddling fakes.  Either way it's a win/win and a pretty cheap service which will allow you to sleep better at night knowing you didn't fall prey to the countless forgers out there.  Hope this helps.
