Haven't seen an autographed MOC AFA graded before, it's like the ink isn't there!

I would have expected either:-

a) A much lower score for the card (scored as 90) as it has pen all over it
b) an acknowledgement on the sticker that it was autographed

It is very difficult to tell in the pictures - but is it possible that the outside of the case has been signed ?

It's the case that is signed

I almost fell for it today when I saw it as well.

AFA dont and wont grade any MOC with an autograph, infact I think any ink/pen marks ect are a no no.

The seller does state the autograph is on the actual AFA case which can be rubbed out.

Hope that clears it up

As a bonus, the casing has been signed by the actor who played C-3PO in all of the six Star Wars Movies, Anthony Daniels! Who I was lucky to have met at one of the Star Wars Conventions a few years back.

If for some reason you'd rather not have the signature on the case, then it should be possible to rub it off, maybe with a cleaning product, but would devalue the item in my view, but would be your decision.

Hello
I'm the seller of this item. Just to clear things up. The case itself has been signed. So the original case is unmarked. I did the same with my boba fett figure, as I thought it was a nice touch and I didn't have any other C-3PO items to get signed at the time.
