ASI brings a whole new dimension to collecting game-used and signed memorabilia.  Every item we receive is directly from the players themselves, NOT second-hand.  There are many companies and individuals who sell memorabilia without the buyer knowing where the item came from, and more importantly, if it's authentic.  ASI, however, eliminates the worry of whether or not an item is genuine.  Every item we sell comes straight off the field, and most times it comes directly from the athletes themselves.  We are so absolutely certain that every autograph and piece of memorabilia we sell is authentic that we offer our customers a 100% money-back guarantee if the item we sell is not exactly as described.  And as if a 100% money-back guarantee isn't enough, we accompany every item with a Certificate of Authenticity (COA) as well as two corresponding tamper-proof hologram stickers.  In some cases we provide a Letter of Authenticity (LOA) signed by the player who signed the item.  Why do we go the extra mile to make sure that our customers are completely confident and satisfied with their purchases?  Because we believe there is no substitute for authenticity.

The now disbanded company was formally AROD's own memorabilia company. Alex personally hand signed each item and a photo representation of the event was recorded and documented. Each item was issued a numbered hologram with a matching Certificate of Authenticity.
With some unfortunate "bad publicity" driven by WFAN's on air personalities Mike and the Mad Dog, Alex felt it necessary to dissolve his relationship with the organization. With a plethora of memorabilia still in circulation with the AROD Authenticated branding, you can feel secure that this is the real thing.
It's odd...with the vast circulation of Derek Jeter's memorabilia (photos and balls) after he hit his 1st Grand Slam, how come Steiner and Jeter weren't "branded" as trying to over capitalize on a special moment?

Pro Tour Memorabilia pioneered the authentication of autographed golf memorabilia and our stringent authentication process ensures that you are receiving a genuine, limited edition collectors item. Our unique process begins with a witness who actually supervises the signing of each piece. The professional golfer then signs an affidavit certifying the authenticity of the item, as well as the number of pieces actually signed. A tamper-resistant, hologram is affixed to the finished product. A Certificate of Authenticity is then issued which bears its own unique identification number. In addition, each certificate features a description of the item and the moment in history it reflects

(applies only to hand signed photos, hand signed golf balls, hand signed clubheads, hand signed flags, hand signed scorecards and some hand signed lithographs)

MVP Marketing and Management, LLC guarantees the authenticity of every single item that we sell 100%. Each item is accompanied by either a Certificate of Authenticity (COA) or Letter of Authenticity (LOA). Each form of authenticity is certified with our personal tamper-proof holoseal. The holoseal is a set of 2 identical seals. One is applied to the item itself and the other one is applied on the COA or LOA. Each holoseal has a unique 5 digit number that corresponds to one and only one item. This 5 digit number is logged into our database with a description of the item.

CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY (COA)
MVP Marketing and Management, LLC provides a Certificate of Authenticity for every item that is autographed, but not game used. The COA states a description of what the item is and is accompanied by the unique 5 digit tamper-proof holoseal. The COA guarantees the authenticity of the item as long as the tamper-proof holoseal is intact. Any tampering or fragmenting of the holoseal will invalidate the authenticity of the item.

LETTER OF AUTHENTICITY (LOA)
MVP Marketing and Management, LLC provides a Letter of Authenticity for every item that is autographed, and game used. The LOA is a formal document that has been hand signed by the player whom the item had belonged to. A LOA is the ultimate form of authenticity. It states a description of what the item is, it has been hand signed by the player, and is accompanied by the unique 5 digit tamper-proof holoseal. A LOA usually will also have a picture of the player signing the specific item or a picture of the item as well. The LOA guarantees the authenticity of the item as long as the tamper-proof holoseal is intact. Any tampering or fragmenting of the holoseal will invalidate the authenticity of the item.
