I'm debating bidding on a sports autograph on ebay as a Christmas gift for my brother. The listing says it comes with a certificate but I'm wondering if there are certain company names I should be looking for when it comes to this certificate.

Any

In general, if the certificate is not from PSA or Beckett or Steiner Sports or another major name, I would be VERY WARY of buying an autograph on eBay. I used to work at an eBay dropoff store (like in 40 Year Old Virgin) and I know from experience that it isn't worth it to buy an auto without certification from one of the major companies. Also, be sure to check feedback before purchasing.

I wouldn't even trust Beckett.:(
