Steiner weighs in on Eli Manning controversy

Re: Steiner weighs in on Eli Manning controversy

I once heard that the players don't sign the letters at the same time they give them their game used items. Is that true?

I do not know. I do know the seller had several for sale.

Re: Steiner weighs in on Eli Manning controversy

Do you think Steiner will terminate its contract with Eli for him tarnishing their reputation?

They should. That would be the right thing to do. As you can see from the statement released by Steiner that is not gonna happen at least in my opinion until it plays out.

There was a bunch of Steiner COA's signed by Jeter and Ortiz being sold stand alone on eBay. I know Steiner was made aware of it because I emailed them. They never responded and I do not think anything was done about it.

Re: Steiner weighs in on Eli Manning controversy

Besides this, what other controversey if any has Steiner been involved with pertaining to game used items? Wasn't there also some talk awhile back here that they sold blank Yankees game jerseys and someone was selling them on Ebay as customized big name players?

Re: Steiner weighs in on Eli Manning controversy

I have proof of them reselling a Cubs jersey that I told them wasn't wore in the game stated, mlb authentication was also wrong. Refunded my money, response was they don't have the time or assets to go over every jersey from every team they basically have to take the teams word. I had two cowboys jerseys that were authenticated to the wrong games, the cowboys had misinformed them I provided evidence and jerseys were sent from back to Steiner then to the cowboys for re authentication and then back to me.

Same thing happened with me regarding Cowboys jerseys. They where auctioned as game used in my case but showed no signs of wear. This was a few years ago. I paid so little for them but that was not the point. They stuck game used stickers on them. I called them and argued my case.

I understand it is a big company but should that prevent them from doing research on items? Your reputation is everything in this business.

If a item is returned it is usually returned for a reason. Listen to the consumer and don't turn a blind eye.

Re: Steiner weighs in on Eli Manning controversy

I just wondering if any of these people that returned items ( Eli Game used)
have come forward. Also who has bought a resold helmet? Its alot of info to follow but the guys helmet who was on TV didn't he buy it from a friend? He should have the friend contact Steiner.

Re: Steiner weighs in on Eli Manning controversy

Some of Manning’s alleged fakes were sold through famed memorabilia house Steiner Sports, with whom he had an exclusive deal.

Steiner, believing its items to be authentic, sold them “to unwitting customers and sent them viathemail,” the suit says.

Angry buyers started to complain after noticing that markings on their items didn’t match those that appeared in pictures of Manning’s game-day duds.

But Manning told Steiner they were legit,and Steiner resold returned helmets to other buyers, the suit claims."

Re: Steiner weighs in on Eli Manning controversy

I keep reading that Steiner Re-sold Items?? Does anyone have proof of this?
or is the only person claiming this a former employee?

Re: Steiner weighs in on Eli Manning controversy

I wonder how much of his items does Brandon even go through or has knowledge about? If I purchased a game used Yankees baseball from an obscure game and he signs off on the LOA, shouldn't he be responsible for any questions I have about it?

Re: Steiner weighs in on Eli Manning controversy

The statement from Steiner is pretty much what you'd expect. Not really giving any facts and skirting around the issues. Pretty much what we expect to hear from a prepared statement these days.

Re: Steiner weighs in on Eli Manning controversy

I could see giving Steiner the benefit of the doubt, if they wanted to claim ignorance based on receiving items from an equipment manager who pulled the wool over their eyes. Apologies, refunds, and destroy the items to prevent future fraud. Oh, if only it was that easy.

But how do they explain RESELLING items that were returned, after the original customers informed them the items were not authentic and provided them with proof to back it up?

You know what they say, Steiner. Fool us twice...
