I've just looked at the above item and i have noticed that this seller has not just a signed Blizzard album ?.Which is obviously forged he has other items of interest. Bon Scott signed items X 2 and a signed photo of Ronnie Van Zant.Led Zep's Houses of the Holy LP signed by the original line up ??.Tell tale signs that these are all bogus,this guy is a ripp off merchent and should be reported to ebay.Hopefully the RR signature will not reach the reserve..
A set of early 1980 signatures from the first touring line up should look something like the ones below...

Sorry for the late reply,No I never met the band it was a gift from my cousin who met them after a early BOO show in the UK.GUITARIDOL5682 wrote:Hi Jay thats a nice set of early Ozzy/Blizzard signatures you have there. Did you meet Ozzy-Randy and the band ? Or did you get these some other way ? welcome aboard ..
BEWARE OF FAKE SIGNATURES AND MEMORABILIA ON CRAIGSLIST NOW.
YES IT IS MUCH EASIER TO SELL FAKES ON CRAIGSLIST AND IT IS HAPPENING NOW.
A seller claiming he is a bIg pro collector with over 4000 items is selling 3 fake randy autographs for 400$ a pop.They are on photographs that werent even widely issued til after RR died!!!tHEY ARE ALSO TERRIBLE FAKE SIGNATURES.i ALSO SAW ANOTHER GUY SELLING FAKE rr STUFF.The craigslist guys are worse than ebay sellers and they seem to be really slick with bluffing the buyer.
I think the only self portrait pictures randy did sign were promo pics of himself from cbs or quiet riot stuff or blizzard and diary tourbook programs.

if the name fits? the name seems seems to have be chosen with the idea of mocking nature of what he is trying to achieve.Sarab wrote:I was thinking the same thing!

This guy makes me sick he has been mentioned before and he does sell some original items. But all of his so called vintage Tour posters and itinaries are copied and NOT original. Please be aware of his selling bullshit which doesn't fool me. His stories sound convincing but like this item below. Not one of those signatures is genuine. That hat may well be an official item,but with me having all of those band members autographs (see below) not one of them is anywhere near like the original. I have seen this guy time and time again listing home made crap and people still buy from him. Please take note of his name and avoid him like the plague.

Yeah Dave it only sold for $25.00 but this ass'ole shouldn't be allowed to sell anything on ebay. The amount of crap i've seen him sell and he has the cheak to say that they are original and vintage and have yellowed with age etc. This is another one of his so called tour posters. I think he's had the the squeezed tea bag rubbed over this one to give it a bit of 'yellowing'. The same item is a small advertising cutting from the 'Sounds' magazine.wyldeone wrote:these are bad fakes!!

I've got the same cutting here, be warned and don't buy from this one.
yet another fake: http://cgi.ebay.com/OZZY-BLIZZARD-OF-OZ ... |294%3A200
please read his bs explanations of how he obtained signature....doesnt mention nothing about meeting the man himself-no excitement...also a short auction...only fakers do that..if you have a real one why would you limit your exposure...he also claims hes not an expert at forgery stuff and doesnt understand dna,psa or coa yet there he his perfectly aware of it!!!Talk about foot in mouth!!!
"This auction is for my personal signed copy of Ozzy Osbourne's BLIZZARD OF OZ "comeback album". I bought this album new just before a UFO/Ozzy Osbourne concert in San Antonio, Texas and was lucky enough to get it signed by Randy Rhoads at the show. I went to a LOT of concerts during the late 70's and early 80's."
Who brings an album to the show???It would get mangled anyway and this one shows no wear.
"I am not a "serious collector", dealer, or some kind of forgery expert. I don't understand either how an item can be DNA authenticated unless it contains some sort of human remains. There is no "COA" for this album but if you would like and you are willing to pay the notary public fee,... "
He understands plenty it seems.Oh god ,getting your lie notarized validates the lie?Notarized heresay is worthless waste of money not even legally valid...
