I havenāt used them but I will l be for the upcoming signing. I emailed back and fourth and he was able to provide an answer for all of my concerns in a articulate way. He seems legit as they come.
I agree! His communication is fantastic. Iām going to be using him also this time around. I guess I was just curious if anyone has used him in the past, maybe just to ease my mind a bit
I have not used him, but I did meet and talk with him for a good while several times while in Hartford and he is a super cool dude. I personally wouldnāt hesitate to use him if I wanted something signed.
Just sent 3 cards to him today for the Arita singing, his communication is 5/5. Now Iām just hoping all goes well, if it does Iāll defiantly consider using his service for the Kouki Saitou signing.
I agree with you. His communication AND everything else about him is top notch- I sent him some of my cards as well. Did he release a date yet for the Kouki Saitou signing? I know he told me it was in the works, but last I checked he didnāt have a date.
Christopher (the guy running getautographed) has a legitimate service. I met him at the Kouki Saitou signing in Dallas last January and heās been in contact with me since.
I asked Saitou about that since I saw him on their website. He said he was unaware of any signing. Currently he has no public appearances announced.
Please check out the website if you have not done so yet at www.GetAutographed.com - there is a lot to take in and soon it wonāt just be pokemon as Iāve done many other signings in the past in various fields.
@oneonta, asks if the signing with Saitou is public or private: This will be a private event in 2020 hopefully while I am there for the Olympics but a date has not been set up yet. My translator does all the discussions with him and Iām just waiting on final word.
@tcgcaravan, I recognize you from IG and thanks for trusting me with your cards - I saw them yesterday and they are amazing.
@budget, āWhat makes this process seem legit?ā - There will be a review section on my website, IG, Facebook etc. so that you and others are able to see that what I do as is indeed legit. Until then, you just have to be a grumpy cat
So I am thinking about doing this, one thing that may be overlooked on your autographs if you accept feedback⦠I think you should specify the autograph on the artist. If I am getting a signed autograph, I prefer Aritaās signature in Japanese, please forgive me as I donāt remember the differences in (Kanji, Hiragana, or Katakana). I know he signs in English as well and I know its something minor. All my autographs from him are already in Japanese as well.
When I sent mine in, he asked me to include a paper that outlined exactly what I wanted (language, sketch, etc.). He said that he would try his best to fulfil the order, however, it is ultimately up to the artist in what they want to do (see Haradaās tweet for how not to act at a signing ).
youāre all good! just some fans forget that just because Arita will sign everything, doesnāt mean that the other tcg artistās will have that same temperament. (and i think ivāe even heard stories where Arita will turn down signings because he doesnāt like to sign for re-sellers).
