    Seems as if a 100% positive feedback, even when based on hundreds of transactions, is not that much worth then��

    When it comes to the amount of fake shit that floods eBay on a daily basis, a seller's feedback rating is absolutely irrelevant.

    A lot of people don't realise that they have been conned and will leave positive feedback. It certainly doesn't deter from the fact they have been ripped off.

    Agree.. Too bad that it is not possible to leave comments under E-Bay items, which I believe would have helped

    You'd be surprised what contacting the seller of a questionable eBay auction can do. There have been many, many times that forum members have sent messages to sellers questioning their claims. It's up to the seller, but on many occasions, they take the auction down.

But also found these two - can someone please help me assess if the autographs are authentic or not? Also: what should I expect to pay for a signed Stephen King book (not talking about rare 1st editions etc..)? Thanks for any help!!

    Spine very slightly tilted, pages look and have that amazing smell of an old book.

    Hey all,

    I've followed this thread for a while (been very helpful in steering me away from scammers + teach me to better identify fake items). Noticed something today while searching eBay for a 1st edition of IT. http://www.ebay.ca/itm/Stephen-king-...%257Ciid%253A1

    The signature looks fake to me but I'll leave it for the experts here to confirm.
