Since the Idina concert was in Canada, it was probably signed in metric, which is why it would look different from her usual signature in NYC.
i'm pretty sure this is a child or someone who is not in possession of all their mental faculties. so don't be too mean, maybe just contact ebay..
Guys quit, like, criticizing her! She's like totally telling the truth! Why would she, like, lie about this?!? Seriously these signature are 100% real!!! How dare u question her honesty. Like seriously, ok? So like, grow up, seriously!!!!!
haha
" Hey everyone I'm selling my rock of
ages signed playbill I got it signed Late
August of last year I just want to say
that I'm really mad at the horrible
comments u people are writing to me
it's really rude and really hurts
honestly why are people so mean
honestly please respect my listings and
if u have something bad to say don't
say it at all I know about the
broadwayworld thread I've seen what
all of u have written and honestly as a
broadwayworld member I'm ashamed
Anyways Happy Bidding hope everyone
can be nicer this time around!:)"
Thanks everyone! I needed a good laugh. Doesn't this person realize having a feedback score of less than 80% makes them look sketchy? It sucks, but is true. But, you can't feel bad since it was their fault.
How would you get ebay to take it down? I have seen fake signatures on so many things on ebay and I always wondered if people were that gullible to believe it.
Then again her feedback I would never even bid on anything.
There is a way to report, I just don't remember how.
Can someone ask her to get me Bob Fosse's autograph next time she sees him.
Right there on the auction page, at the right side, under "Seller Info" and "Other Info" it says "report item". Click on the link.
Curious how you would prove to ebay that it is fake? I can't see then taking posts down just because someone says so. Even if Idina does look like it starts with an L instead of an I. :)
From what I can see you don't have to prove it. Just say "signatures are fake". I'd guess that ebay would look at the item and the seller's history and feedback, along with any other reports of fraud on that item, and then make a judgment call. I think they err on the side of caution when it comes to charges of fraud and faked items.
Well also you could copy and paste the dates she claims to have gotten the sigs and then explain that certain performers and/or pull quotes don't match the timeline.

After reading through this ding-a-ling's Feedback, I wonder why Ebay hasn't banned her. She obviously doesn't send the merchandise that people pay for.

I'd like to stick up for her a little. She eventually sent me the Playbill I won from her. It's from Jude Law's "Hamlet" and it's signed by the playwright.
Bwahahaha.
I don't understand because the items she just listed actually look like the actual signatures
Read her comment in this new listing. Also I would never bid on something where returns on something like this is not allowed.

If she were an honest seller, she wouldn't need to defend her listings like that. And, it is pretty sad that with a 79.2 seller rating, she thinks people will trust her, regardless of anything being real or not.
"Since the Idina concert was in Canada, it was probably signed in metric, which is why it would look different from her usual signature in NYC."
Okay. That made me laugh.

LOL, what's funny about that is she now she is warning potential bidders that there is a thread about her on BroadwayWorld! I have no idea what those signatures are supposed to look like but reading that description would take me right here to check out what she's talking about.
Funny thing: THAT program at least looks like it might be legit -- but she doesn't even tell you WHO signed it. How many replacements has ROA gone through already?
I've been surprised about how little interest EBay has in fake goods. Someone sold me CD-R's instead of a real CD a few years back. I complained and eventually got my money back, but EBay was not that interested and the seller is still selling, despite multiple feedback comments that she sells fake stuff.

Nope! I just cross checked those Rock of Ages signatures on her playbills with other ones. While they don't look half bad, there are so many inconsistencies between that girl's signatures and other ones out there...shaping of letters, size of the signature, flow, etc...all the stuff you couldn't copy easily unless you really traced the signatures.
On another note, yeah, I had the misfortune of purchasing $3,300 worth of posters (13 posters in total over a few years) and all of the posters had various forgeries on them. I've even brought some of them to some of the actors at the stage door and asked them if it was their signature and they said absolutely not.

I came home this evening to find the following message waiting for me from the gentle waif:
"Go Ahead post it on broadwayworld.com U ALL ARE SERIOUSLY LIKE herpes ATHLETES FOOT!!! SUCK THAT OH IM GOING TO DO ALL OF U A FAVOR AND DELETE THIS ACCOUNT BECAUSE OF ALL THE GARBAGE U PEOPLE ARE SENDING OH AND GUESS WHAT MORE SIGNED PLAYBILLS ARE COMING GOING TO ACCUSE ME OF MORE OF SIGNED PLAYBILL? Yeah what? Jeez u really pissed me off after writing this I feel much better now leave me alone!!!!

Of course these are "real signed Playbills! They're probably signed by a drunken janitor in Toronto.

As much I agree with some of these comments I think this has gone a little to far. There is no use getting into a fight with her over wether or not these playbills are real if you truly think she is a fake just report her to ebay. Her feedback already stinks we've all been warned about her now just let her dig her own grave if she must. The things many of us have said are really mean and I feel kind of bad for her.
