In the past I bought several items from Coaches Corner Auctions out of Penn. With all the bad stuff about them on the Internet, I decided to send my items out for authentication to the 2 best thought of authenticators in the business, JSA and PSA.
Not one item came back as being authentic! Both PSA and JSA said the items were definite forgeries! When I called Coaches Corner to talk about returning the items, their response was JSA and PSA were jealous of them, and didn't know what they were doing. They refused to take back the items and refund my money. When I looked further on the Internet, I see they have an F rating with the BBB, for having tons of similar complaints against them and ignoring those complaints.
I also now notice there are tons of people like me who were defrauded by Coaches Corner on the internet. There is a gentleman, named Tom Tresh, who has several videos on U-Tube about their forgeries. Reliable sources tell me they hire people to forge signatures, which would explain why they offer tons of items signed by Ruth, Gehrig, Cobb, Mathewson, etc. That probably is another reason why they are under investigation by the FTC, and other government agencies.
