I purchased four autographs from a well established auction house. All four items came with a Certificate of Authenticity signed by Steven Zarelli of Zarelli Space Authentication.

I sent all four to PSA for REAL Certificates of Authenticity and three came back as fake, one did come back with a PSA COA.

I contacted the Auction house and they assured me that Zarelli was good, but in light of new evidence; the Rejection Letters from PSA, the Auction House offered a 100% satisfaction refund because they stand by what they sell.

Does Zarelli sit at the kitchen table for hours daydreaming with a handful of autographs around him ? Is this his eight hour work day ? I realize that COA's are based upon opinions but where does Zarelli get his opinions from ? Why did PSA reject three items that Zarelli looked at ? Did he look at the autographs or daydream about them ?

My name is Anthony Zarelli

AUTHOR: Anthony - (United States)

POSTED: Wednesday, February 07, 2018

My name is Anthony Zarelli. I live in upstate New York. Steve was always the unbalanced one . He was always seeking attention and trying to be a little bigger, a little taller, and a little wser.  As an autograph EXPERT he found the right audience , but is he really the advice to follow ?  Think About That one.

In my Opinion, Zarelli is not a good authenticator

AUTHOR: Morris Elmke - ()

POSTED: Tuesday, December 02, 2014

I have seen the garbage being sold on eBay with the Steve zarelli COA's . I  get very upset that there are a group of rogue autograph  dealers that hang around a site and bad mouth honest dealers and  I have long since resigned from the UACC because they have a dwindling membership and people like Zarelli, with all his mis-informatio, made up stories, and autograph fiction represents the average membership of green collectors that lack any real knowldge and are too cokky to listen to seasoned collectors.

PSA rejects Zarelli Space Authenticated Items

AUTHOR: Ken Road - ()

POSTED: Wednesday, November 19, 2014

Steve Zarelli also Authenticates for RR in New Hampshire.  There is a significant class action suit against RR because the items they sold between 2009 and 20012 were found to be FAKE as proclaimed by PSA .  This is the very same scenario that happened to you with Zarelli, PSA declared the three items to be FAKE.  Check Out ...http://www.rrauctionlawsuit.com/
