    but greed ended Skeletors "career" (he had already defeated HM in the movie) , Max Zorin (he was already rich) & Hitler (already conquered lots of Europe......but noooo , that wasnt enough :P

    Got the Batman 60s puppet theatre (unused) for 1300 , a great deal.....its not all about the $ tho , its great nostalgia

    Joker puppet alone can go for 800 , not bad

    Batman comic sgd by Conroy , Hamill & Sorkin went for 1500......its nice but i still wouldnt pay THAT much for it  

    "stratospherically rich dudes"

    Kjell Inge Røkke is a norwegian fishing industry tycoon , difference is nobody gave him the money into his lap like with some , he worked very hard to get where he is today , working on trawlers as a kid etc

    ive heard Heritage isnt on the up and up , alleged fraud with sealed video games for ex

    Hollywood Show/Piece of the Past fake autographs = buyer beware

    Well , tbh its just their opinion , there are collectors out there that have studied the sigs for yrs or decades.....its no guarantee 100% that what you bought is real , at best they look at it for 5 mins. I wont buy from A*OA as the owner is a jerk (nothing to do with authenticity) or G*laxy C*n (they sold dubious Mario Lopez & ST cast and like with POTP its no refund) 

    (Madonna sig deemed a fake , quelle surprise.....)

    Beware of Piece of the Past/Hollywood Show , POTP has sold fake Stan Lee's & HS was caught selling fake sgd SL capt A funko last yr

    POTP currently has a SL drawing on liveauctioneers , imo its not real (also a fake Rigg , ive met her in 2011 so I know what it looks like) & has a nationwide ring of 9 (!) dealers aid him sell fakes , among them jackmsell (sold fake 007 sigs for over 5k last month : post death Robert Shaw - he never finished Avalanche Express...another thing the sharpie sig has not faded in 45 yrs ?? , dubious Connery & Dalton has for yrs refused to sign 007 items)  and colbystreetartandantiques 

    "hand writing expert" , POTP also claims to be a forensic certified expert but then again hes a full blown a-hole conman

    I have to tell my Anthony Daniels story. I was helping Richie out at one of the WWChicago cons. It was the same year I met Ralph Macchio, who was so friendly and engaging. I can’t remember how many Star Wars guys were there or even if there were any other Star Wars guys. But I had two books in my hand that needed Daniels and one that didn’t. He was about $40 a sig at the time and he wasn’t ticketed, so you just paid him at the table. I handed him the $80 and had him sign the two books. He reached for the third and I was like “no, you don’t need to sign that.” I think either he had already signed it long before or it was just a two character cover and they didn’t want other actors. He got so ticked off that I wasn’t going to pay him to sign the third book. He was like “I’m Anthony Daniels blah blah blah.” Finally I was like “Man these aren’t my books. So I can’t do what other people don’t want me to do.” He got even more ticked off and went off on EBay and told me I was a leech and a dirtbag. It was great.

    I dont doubt you but hes right about POTP being a scammer however , besides this one , hes sold fake Bowie (dated '17 when he died 2016 , what clown forges these ?)

    It wasn't ebay, it was one of those smaller local auction houses so I have no idea lol

    If it was Piece of the Past then i would worry.....or Hollywood Show

    West (RIP) & Newmar would not sign w/o inscription at cons - manager Fred was firm on this rule , West had done this since around 2005. Yet what came from POTP all un-insc.

    Autograph fraud on Stan is so much more common than you think, especially since he passed and his signature is so easily duplicated.

    I just read a biography on Stan Lee and it was mentioned that when Stan was too tired to sign, his handlers who start forging items.

    You take a .10 comic book and sign his name on it, you can easily make a small percentage of it's value (can you think of an easier way to make $20 or $30 or $50?) and Stan Lee forgeries are rampant since his passing because the authorities and sites like eBay don't care.

    The % varies on the celebrity (not limited to sports) as fraud is in every genre of signature collecting and is north of 90% on figures like Michael Jordan, Bob Dylan, Neil Armstrong, Tiger Woods, LeBron James, The Beatles, Kobe Bryant etc. 

    Since Stan signed so much, so much unverified, to say undocumented signatures are fraudulent is pure lunacy.

    Most of mine doesnt come with certs , all real :

    Jaws book by trio , from MV set (Dreyfuss last man standing)

    Streisand LP/note/HD receipt from set , all from late 60s/early 70s

    Hashimoto+ brochure (Bruce Lees nemesis , never seen one on ebay) , Benn+ cut (came directly from HK cafe)

    Robert Shaw+ receipt

    Willoughby Gray+ cut (Zorins mentor/the king in Princess Bride)

    Cacavas+ Horror Express spanish/italian movie posters (other HE stars : Line from mid 50s , Pena from 30s , Israel aka baggage man , autopsy lady)

    Savalas+ KH contract

    Deer Hunter : Cazale+ cut , de Niro/Savage contracts (not from the movie....but still) , Streep sgd mag , Walken resume 

    Connery+ vintage 007 photo

    007 AVTAK book by Moore+/Brown+/Keen+ and Walken/Roberts+/Yip cuts

    007 Gotell (prolly rarer than Bernard Lee , yet Bondcollectibles had a ton all of a sudden on ebay....hmm) 

    Stallone/Weathers Rocky french 2sh poster

    Lonsdale+ Drax Mego figure (ooak , never seen another sgd)

    Lazenby/Rigg+ OHMSS ita 2sh poster (also Leech+/Sims+/Mountain/Hanley/Henriques)

    Opsahl+ Olsen Gang #4 comic book (ooak....never seen another sgd by him , sgd 4 months before death) , Byhring+ aka Kjell (took me 20 yrs to find , nightmare lol).....they made 14 of those crime comedies , those autographs no value outside Norway though (5 comics/albums were made , only #4 was in color , #5 "Star of Quruk" is quite rare)

    and many Bond girls , not worth much but most were IP by myself

    (an american military man Andy Andersen played a Blofeld-esque villain in second movie , "Olsen Gang and Dynamite Harry" , ive never seen his autographs and likely never will , super super rare)

    I recently sold from UK to US, sent first class, not through GSP. Took 3 days to get from UK to Chicago USPS facility and then didn’t move for 5 weeks until the buyer chased USPS, he got it 2 days later. 
    My experience and posts from others I have read I think the issue is with USPS regather than eBay or GSP.  

    GSP is just a scam invented by ebay , stay away
