Just kidding.

Hook up with a bid sniper program. That's what the winner did.

There's a lot of different companies and software available. It's pretty easy. You just set the max you want to pay and with how many seconds left you want to bid. Keep an eye out on the auction as people may drive up the price past your max bid. Adjust your settings, if needed. Then the bid sniper comes in at the last second and bids up to your max. That's what the guy who won it did.

There's a bunch out there. Here's one I've used a few times:

btw he doesn't accept paypal, he knows if the buyer finds out it's fake (if it is) than basically the buyer is screwed because there's nothing ebay can do about getting their money back.

you could always send things into to BGS or UD to get a certificate, they'll do all these different tests and judge it up against a authentic signature, yeah it'll cost money but I bet if he had a UD CoA with that jersey it would've gone for twice as much. I have a UD certified Kobe autographed 8 x10 and that sig looks nothing like the one on that jersey.

i dunno i may be totally wrong, but i don't think those are real autographs, atleast not all of them.

That's why you set a maximum bid, not a minimum bid. You should have set it to 400.

That's one opinion, I suppose. However, by accepting paypal for high ticket items, the seller is at greater risk because both the buyer AND paypal could screw him.

I agree. Look at Kobe's. It looks like an obvious fake IMO.

the K in Kobe's signature definitely looks fake, as compared to the way he signed it on the jersey, basketball and sneakers I have. AndI know mine are real, because the jersey and ball I got directly from the Lakers, and the sneakers he signed directly to me - in front of me!

Kobe might've of signed it in from the year 2000.

I have a shoe that kobe signed for me, i also had a picture taken with me holding the shoe and kobe standing next to me, of course i won't sell it but it's hard to autenticate something you personally had signed by an athlete, mine maybe or may not be easier with the photo.....but that jersey on ebay looks like crap, i dont even think the lakers wore a practice jersey like that then...

well we dont know is what the other bidder(s) MAX was...
you do know that it took the increment (5) to beat out other max (Yours)
..

I believe most competitive auction - action takes place within the last 10 seconds.
When I bid for something that I really want, Im in it within the last few seconds or I do bid my max and see...
