isn't this the reason that many celebs including pro athletes refuse to sign anymore (even for kids)? can't blame em, eh

there's a pic of the guy with Gord at the bottom, i personally hope he gets no bids at all

I've seen this one for sale about 20 times on Ebay over the last three or four years. So, that tells me he either has had no luck selling it, or he's very good at faking the autograph.

I actually saw a guy back stage once getting a guitar autographed and taking the picture. I thought, "Yup. That one is going to end up on Ebay." Sure enough, it did a few weeks later.
