Many competitors sell fake autographs, especially on Amazon (which doesn't care about authenticity). Authenticity is our #1 concern. We stake our reputation on every autograph we sell. Every autograph you see here was obtained 1) in person by us or one of our representatives; 2) at a paid signing by a company such as Ironclad, Mounted, Steiner, TriStar or UDA; or 3) by one of our exhaustively screened wholesale sources. We won't sell any autographed item unless we are 100% certain of authenticity! If you would like to discuss authenticity of an autograph you bought or are considering buying here or elsewhere, feel free to e-mail us or call us at 858-384-7057.

Each autographed item is accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity (COA) from AutographsForSale.com OR the company that obtained the signature. All autographs come with a lifetime guarantee of authenticity. If you provide a written opinion from the celebrity's agent, estate or team that your autographed item is not authentic, we will provide a full refund. However, opinions from third party authenticators such as Global Authenticated (GAI), James Spence (JSA) or PSA/DNA are NOT ACCEPTABLE for refund due to the documented incompetence of ALL such companies. For example, see the photo above for three glaring examples of PSA/DNA incompetence.

To further educate yourself about third party authentication company incompetence, please see Autograph Alert or Safe Boxing Alliance or Autograph News Live or read the book Autograph Hell written by autograph collector Charles Irion. You can also read numerous Better Business Bureau complaints about PSA/DNA. NOTE: The few autographed items we have with certificates or stickers from third party authenticators were witnessed by us and/or authenticated at paid signings.

Unlike many of our competitors, at AutographsForSale.com we sell only REAL AUTOGRAPHS. If a competitor's price seems too good to be true, BEWARE! Fake autograph sellers use many tricks, including stealing images of real autographs from sites like ours and shipping forgeries instead. Amazon in particular is notoriously flooded with fake autographs because they have no authenticity policy. Amazon collects fees from every item sold, real or fake, so they have an incentive to allow fakes to be sold on their site. Amazon accounts can be closed and opened in a matter of minutes, which allows forgers to hide their tracks. Positive feedback from customers may only mean that the seller has successfully fooled unsuspecting buyers.

We've been in business since 1999 and 92% of previous customers rated us Excellent or Good. You can read all of our customer ratings going back to April 2005 on our Facebook page in the Notes section. Every autographed item you see here is IN STOCK AND READY TO SHIP IMMEDIATELY. If you have a specific question about our products, whether it's about authenticity or anything else, we can answer it without having to call some other company's warehouse. We stand behind our products because we OWN our products, and we take pride in shipping quickly and providing superb customer service.
