i have not read anything that would lead me, to making a purchase with an auction house. i have never and will never consider that option. is the sole purpose of contacting an auction house with a question or a legimate concern over authenticity? or are some just policing the hobby? i wouldnt get on the high horse after this forum was letting game cut yankee shirts being sold here. yes i know they were clearly noted as game cut....... but we all knew what would happen latter.... the response WE CANT CONTROL WHAT HAPPENS LATER. was lame then and im still angry about this. maybe someday youll be writing to these auction houses about some game issued yankee shirts that were hawked right here under your nose have a good weekend Jeff
