    Pretty thrilling to get this in the mail. Total investment in doing this was only $2.53 for shipping and for buying David's only rookie card 2000 Leaf Limited /1500.

    going tonight to get the COA laminated at office max for $1.05

      I am sorry but thats exactly what its doing is authenticating it, or at least giving the illusion of it.

      Sorry but if you tomorrow are no longer with us and someone goes to sell this collection do you think they will know that the player never seen let even touched the jersey? How would a player know from 2 little pictures if its theirs? While nice as its in your collection now, in 25 years its could be a problem for someone else possibly in your family.

      Personally I dont see the point as its only in your collection and if you know its legit why do you need a piece of paper from a guy who didnt even see nor touch the jersey?

        He did sign the jersey several years ago, i sent him 20 pics via email. not 2, the coa was only 2 photos.

        If anyone wants to prove that it is not legit game used jersey, go ahead. I am using the COA paperwork for display, but yes when I die this Jersey will still go in someone elses hands and probably the COA. I certainly do not think it in anyway hurts the value of the jersey.

        The letter may "authenticate" it for someone else, that is their choice to accept it. It is not a legal document at all, and I do not think this decrease the value of a $100 game used jersey.

          I got a $2.53 display and discussion piece with a story.

          I am not sure how this causes a problem, if someone doesn't like the COA, they can toss it then.

            I certainly do not think there is anyway I lowered the value of the jersey (paid $100 for it), it is not like I have a $500 jersey and did this hoping that the jersey becomes a $900 jersey w/ the coa.

            My cousin currenty plays for a BIG TEN school in the midwest and he gave me one of his 2010 game used jerseys in person and I still had him do a similar COA. If you have the option to do this, I am not sure why you wouldn't.

              I am not saying its unauthentic or that you are wrong, I actually agree with most you are saying.

                If anyone is soley relying a sheet of paper to tell you that something authentic, you are in the wrong hobby, regardless of who issues it.

                  Jacquez Green 98 rookie jersey and lockerroom nameplate.

                  images didn't show up too well when i scanned them.
