Not exactly bringing the heat like some of you guys, but was happy this showed up the other day. The screenshot explains why better than simply a picture of the card.

Auto is streaky throughout and does not appear as a free flowing (one continuous movement) signature. Looks suspicious to me. JMHO

Thanks for your input! I have until tonight to cancel! So any other opinions would be greatly appreciated.

Anyone else care to comment if they think the auto is authentic?

I was thinking SSP Holding Helmet was around that range, actually more in the <100 range. Waving seems to be in the thousands but 1,000-20,000, who knows.

Given that some don't like #700 because he's pitching, this seems like a great buy given it's his #700, first flagship card, and non pitching

Looking at Acuna bat down as a variation example about 1500 cards graded by PSA. So yes you are correct in the thousands. Only 1/3 of acuna cards were PSA10.

PR on Bat Down is roughly 20k.

Seller has a lot of different hand written auto cards from the mail and all starting at $88.99. Would stay away from this one.

Thank you for the advice! The seller has sold many of these auto Ohtani cards today. I think I am leaning towards cancelling. Sometimes if a deal is too good to be true it probably is! Anyone on here actually thinks it is authentic?

There’s a Griffey he’s selling that is for sure fake. I’d stay away.

I’d buy that over a lot of the P70 cards. Well done!

I'm pretty confident calling that one fake. The proportions are off for the top/bottom. Even in a hurry, he wouldn't sign like that.

A friend, whose former profession required a fair bit of training and experience in graphology and document examination (definitely not me... wink wink), wanted me to advise you to cancel the deal and run the other way.

Don’t blame you one bit. Congrats. I just get worried when prices get crazy. Some people buy on emotion and since eBay has a messed up system for returns I hope it works out. Again congrats on the sale.

Thanks for the advice! I asked to cancel the order. Have yet to hear from the seller.
