The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

Autographs America...

I am pretty pissed but it really is my own fault. Autographs America is a website where one can buy signed music memorabilia. I bought a signed Alice in Chains guitar from this company years ago when the prices weren't as absurd as they are now. I spent around 500 and was excited to have my guitar signed especially since it was signed by Layne Staley, my favorite vocalist. Well as I went on their website today I come to find out their products are "90% off" which is ridiculous as some of their items are soooo rare and much cheapier than one would assume them to be. So I did research and come to find out there are a lot of people who have gotten ripped off. Pretty bummed about it and just wanted to warn any of you to stay away. And before any of you ask " why I didn't research the company first", I did and there was nothing said about the company at the time of my purchase. And the worst part is even if I did want to buy a Layne Staley autograpged piece, how would I ever know if it was real. So anyway that's my story

LOL! Most of the pics on the homepage of that guy with the celebs have been Photoshopped (meaning he took a pic of himself at another place, another time and placed his mug next to a celeb): http://autographsamerica.com/index.asp
