SIGNED ITEMS - We are often asked why we don't include more signed items on our site. Well the simple answer is unless we can guarantee 100% that a signature is valid we don't consider them worth the risk or the of much value. We have be sure the signature is genuine and that gets harder each day with modern technology. Not only that players are signing so many times today the market is just too saturated and we do try to lead customers into good investments and most of today's signed items will never increase in value. In fact player loyalty is almost non-existent so heavy losses on things like signed shirts are very common now. We don't feel happy selling a £25 replica shirt for £500 when it might only be worth £25 again almost the next day, some are but we are not.

A valid signature as far as we are concerned is one written by the person, in the right context and right time. A 1966 world cup winners signature signed on that day in 1966 for example would, to us anyway, worth far more then the ones that can be obtained by queuing up with 100 other people and paying a few pounds at an event today.

PROGRAMMES, TICKETS ETC - The advent of the internet has given anyone the access to mass selling gateway and computers make it easy to replicate printed items. For this reason people must choose very carefully what they buy and where they buy from. Fake programmes, tickets etc. and reprints are now very commonly sold as genuine football memorabilia. Almost weekly we reject such items but it gets hard each day.

As you will see we clearly mark reprints on our site and together with our no quibble return policy we feel this should give people the confidence they need to trust us once and from their it's up to us to provide the service. Unfortunately we can't stock every item you might want so we will list items here that you should be weary of because we have seem reprint or fake items sold as genuine, most can be uncovered often by examining the paper and the poor quality print. Although in some cases it's a judgement call, please don't ask us to referee ;
