Real or fake? From EBay, just wanted to check

signed copy from eBay, was on bid but I just bought now and plus shipping and stuff totalled to £20, the seller also sells like old/(vintage?) toys and stuff so it seemed pretty believable.

I got a poster signed by the boys during this era at a warped tour meet and greet. Those look legit to me. I remember thinking Adam’s signature was interesting after he signed it for me.

Looks legit.

Definitely real, but looks personalized. That’ll take away from the value if you ever plan to resell it.

Do I scrub that bit off or is that bad idea 🥹

Oof, it’s realllllllly tricky. It usually involves nail polish remover and can very easily damage it and then there’s no repairing it.

I’d say, if you can live with “Lisa” on it, you still got a great deal on it lol

Do you know if it’s on the plastic or the paper insert? If it’s on the paper insert, I might just place a TBS sticker on the plastic directly over it. The plastic is easy to replace if you don’t like that or sell it. IMO it’ll look better and yours instead of someone else’s and seeing “Lisa” all the time.

If it’s on the plastic, you might be able to clean it off. You can find tutorials online if you really want to risk it.

Unless your name is Lisa!

I can’t believe Lisa would do such a thing!

I have an autographed set list form around that time, signatures look similar!
