I remember this only vaguely, but didn't that backfire on us once? One of us (probably a lot of us, though) messaged a buyer and pointed him to a thread here discussing the signed book he had just...

It's Craigslist...make him an offer. Put a new dust jacket on the book if he accepts the offer and you'll have yourself a pretty decent score.

I had a minute to spare so I reported the item. I wonder how many unique reports an item needs to receive to be removed.

I just reported them all. I wonder how many reports does it take for eBay to take an item down.

Ditto. I'm not sure what the sellers username is now, but that Iooks like a typical allstarbooks deal. He never mastered the loop. It's always too sharp.

My first thought about it was that was very similar to the forgery that sold through Betts a year or two back. It even has the balloon.

This is not a King book but I know people here collect Powers so word to the wise, don't buy this book as it's still in my possession. I'm actually sending it back today. The seller was reasonable...

I noticed our old pal brennan (on eBay) is back. He only had one S/L and no other "signed" books. He has a new username and seems to have cleaned up his act.

He relisted it. The signature looks real. Now, who'll drop $900 on a signed trade?

No
Beware that seller...I have NEVER seen a legit King signature from him/her.[/QUOTE]

Follow-up questions- I had unfortunately already purchased this not legit signature (cheaply thankfully)...

This seller seems like a King fan and should know better than to try to mislead potential buyers:...

Come on, I was kidding.

Maybe King tried to draw a straight line but found it a difficult after a couple brewskys?

The seller is clearly confused about the details. Though could King just go and do these things without consulting his agent and publisher? Maybe, but I doubt it. So in a way, the seller isn't...

It's fine. I sold five books with the same rushed signature without tickets. I kept those to myself and keep them laid in in my books.

One could also buy multiple copies without having a ticket.

Sliphan King.

Just received a book from "awesomebookusa". It was shipped in a plastic mailing bag. Not a padded envelope, let alone a box. Just a plastic bag with an address label. It wasn't signed as advertised....

Exactly as mine. Bought it straight from Grant.

Reported.

So basically, "redsoxfan" can't win this argument. If his signatures are similar to the recent ones, and he provides examples of them, he could be faking them because why would he be faking an older...
