Re: Question for item #320204196497 - RICHARD KIEL DONRUSS AMERICANA AUTOGRAPH AUTO 032/100

"I am Richard Kiel and I have not signed these cards. Where did you get them? Richard Kiel"

perhaps he does not realize he signed the STICKER on the card, which is what i replied, since perhaps he has not seen the card but will remember the stickers


ANY THOUGHTS???????????

There was something similar to this on the Beckett forums with sellers supposedly being contacted by Madison Bumgarner's mother concerning his Donruss Elite autos.

I am guessing one of three things has happened here:

1. People are trying to stir up trouble by sending messages to sellers such as this.
2. The signers got paid to sign the stickers and never really paid attention to the fact that the stickers would be put on cards or at least didn't know which cards they would be going on.
3. The card companies (Donruss in both cases) is trying to pull a quick one with "phony" autos.

I tend to lean towards 1 or 2 and highly doubt Donruss would be stupid enough to use forged or non-licensed autos.

As long as it isn't #3 (which I doubt), any publicity will be good publicity for this product!

If it is #3 there is going to be a huge problem with this. If ebay gets word of this wouldn't they pull the auctions? Because of fake stuff?

#4- Do you really think it is Richard Keil? Not some little putz playing dumb on the computer?

#4 would fall under #1 :)
