do not by from or if
| a) |
You
are in any doubt of authenticity or if you have a negative gut feeling. |
| b) |
An item appears
too cheap. Often one of the best guides is how much the item costs.
If a seller / dealer is selling an undervalued item at a low price
it must mean he does not believe it is authentic. i.e. Do not buy
an Elvis Presley signed photograph from a dealer for £250
it is a forgery! |
| c) |
Dealers who
are hard to contact. i.e PO Box Number, Mobile Phones Only |
| d) |
Unregulated
dealer websites who make unsubstantiated claims about their expertise
or “15 years working behind the scenes in the music industry” |
| e) |
Internet auctions
unless you are an experienced buyer. |
| f) |
A signed photo
that is too perfect. Ie – undedicated perfect unmarked condition,
signed in black sharpie pen only on clear section of photo. |
