FAQ's

Are you're products authentic?

Yes, all of our autographed products are 100% authentic. Every piece of autographed memorabilia you buy from us will come with a certificate of authenticity from a well respected company such as Upper Deck Authenticated, Steiner Sports, and many others which you can see by pressing the certificates button on the top.

If you don't have an item I want on you're site, can you get it?

Yes we can. If there is any item that you are interested in and don't see on our site, you can request it by pressing the requests button in the customer service section. If you make a request we will get back to you right away, to tell you if we can get it and how much that item will cost.

How do I find what I am searching for?

Our site is very user friendly. There are many ways to find what you are looking for. One way is to use the search engine. Our search engine is located on the bottom left of the navigation bar. It is a Player Last Name search which means all you have to do is type in the last name of the player you are looking for, and all the items we have of that player will come up, ex: Jeter. We also have an "Advance Search" option that allows you to search by "Sport", "Team Name", and "Celebrity" categories. The next option is to press the category you are looking for, ex: Framed Photos. When you do this a list will come up starting with players who's last name starts with the letter A. On the top you have a choice of all the letters in the alphabet to look through. Just press a letter and a list of all the items in that category starting with that letter will appear. Other ways to search is by "New Arrivals" and "Sale Items" options on the Top navigation bar, and the "Game Used Items" and "Hot Players" shown on the Home page. One final way you can search for items, is by certificate of authenticity. By pressing on the certificate logo on the right, such as Upperdeck Authenticated, Steiner Sports, etc., you will be able to see all the items that we have, which are certified by that company.

Are the pictures ot the items the exact item I will be receiving?

In most cases they are, but all the pictures are sample photos. We have more than one of each item so the photo you are seeing may not be the photo of the exact item. The only time you will notice is if the item is a limited edition piece. If it is a limited edition piece, the picture you see might say for example 27 out of 100, and you might get 34/100. That is the only time where you will notice a difference between the image and what you receive.

How do I order?

To order, simply press the thumbnail photo of the item you are looking for. When you do this a description page will come up which will show a larger photo of the item. At the bottom right of the description page is an add to shopping cart button. Press the button and it will bring you to a secure shopping cart. If you have everything you want, press check out. There it will ask you if you are ordering from NY, for tax purposes. After that it will give you the option of ordering by credit card, for yourself or as a gift. When you press order by credit card, you will now be sent to a secure page that will ask for your credit card and billing information.

Will you match the price of an item, if I see it somewhere else cheaper?

Yes. If you see the exact same item somewhere else for a cheaper price, it comes with the same certificate of authenticity, and they have the item in stock we will match the price.
