Webjon... Joss Whedon Auto.
There is currently a Joss Whedon Auto for sale on eBay and it is from a seller that you have doubts about.

He goes by a star wars type name... Wink

Here is the title of the listing.

Buffy Season 1 Joss Whedon A1 Autograph

Does this card look legit to you????

Thank you!

Also, there are a few Joss Whedon Auto cards available on eBay.

They all appear to look different to me... Any help you can give would be appreciated.

Thank you!

I'm definitely not an expert in Buffy autographs, and I don't have a known good scan or card to compare with, but there is nothing obvious that bothers me about this card.

What looks different in the autographs to you? The actual signature or the card?

Hmm. . . it's odd the image won't work. . . if you copy and paste that link it should bring up the pic.

There are three online now and the H in Whedon looks different in each one.

I wanted to get a Whedon Season 1 Auto and never got a chance and the price is not that bad.

I am having trouble getting the pics to post properly...

But each Joss Whedon on eBay has the H in Whedon very different.

Hmm. . . Yeah, I see what you mean. . .

The 'J's bother me -- some come to a point at the top and some loop. . . and on the 'D' some of the ends curl in and some don't. . .

Tough call, could just be a signature variation, you'd have to compare to a known good card or several known good autographs to know for sure.

I would not worry too much on those, they seems very alike.

People like me have different signatures so those could be legit if you want my point of view.

One more thing... does the price seem low?

I always thought the card was selling or listed on eBay for around $200 or more...

What do you think is a good eBay price for the card?

I have no idea as I haven't followed this card -- hopefully someone else chimes in!

The price about right for the Whedon Season 1 auto...the J in Joss is different than in mine, but I believe the card in that auction is legit

Thank you for the info and the photo of your auto. It helps a lot.

Anyone else miss the days when all we had to worry about was people moving star pics stickers and acting as art assistants on the poorer sketch cards?

It just sold with the Buy it Now... I missed it.

Hopefully another one will pop up with a decent price.

Thanks to everyone for all of their help!

I picked up a Joss Whedon Auto on eBay for a decent price and from a different seller.

I am happy I was finally able to get one after all of these years.

This is def legit. I have a signed Joss Whedon card & the signature looks more or less the same. My card is not an inkworks offical card, but it does have a certificate from endzones.
