    Maybe I will PSA it then, if it's worthless i'll trash it no point in keeping it.... I received it as a gift about 4 years ago and my friend at the time didn't tell me where it was purchased or how much she paid.

    needless to say, Wilds and pdalowsky are right on the money as usual. it's unfortunate your friend purchased these worthless signatures, but it's the thought that counts i suppose. i would suggest you don't sink any more funds into the item by having it "authenticated" as the free authentication you've received here is sound.

    one simple rule to remember when buying signed items: buyer beware.
    To quote the 10C from Newsletter #8: "Please understand we have a lot of members and it is very hard to please everybody. If you are one of those unhappy people...please call 1-900-IDN-TCAR."

    I'm sorry that you are hearing the bad news here...but it was nice of everyone to help out.

    And Wilds is right - Santos would be willing to give you an answer if he could.

    I, too, got the bad news AFTER purchasing a signed guitar years ago for hubby as a xmas present.

    I was really bummed out when Santos told me it was fake... but to this day never told hubby. He used to play the shit out of that guitar (his first owned guitar) until my mom gave him a rare Strats guitar to play with (she claims it wasn't a gift, but to borrow...oh well).

    I just don't have the heart to tell him....but it was a lot of $$ wasted and the guy lied to me over and over that it was real, despite what i told him that some folks thought it might have been a fake. He kept assuring me over and over that he wouldn't lie to me and do this sort of thing.

    Never again after that. I know folks feel signatures is worth a lot of money and mean something.... but to me, really.... it means nothing unless it was done in person - and that person wants to sign it, with no pressure.

    Again, i'm really sorry. :( i know how you feel!

    Let this be a lesson for others to double check before purchasing.

    Here ya go... Please let me know what you guys think and if I can send it to the TEN CLUB to check out. I just want to know for myself, if the majority says YEA then I won't get it authenticate as long as I know.

    Who's sig is that @ 3 o' clock?

    Sadly that is supposed to be Mike McCready.

    Of all the fake sigs on the drum head that one is the worst.

    Mike's? blink.gif
    The signature is a swirl of w's!
