We also accept payment by Paypal. Sorry, but we no longer accept cheques or money/postal orders as payment.

Shipping costs are shown before final payment is made during checkout. We only ship using a service that requires a customer signature on delivery. This is not always the cheapest method of shipping, but it is for both your and our security.
Authenticity Of Autographs
All of the autographs that we sell are either obtained in person, an agent working for us, from an established event organiser or from a trusted known source. WE ONLY SELL ORIGINAL AUTOGRAPHS. We do NOT sell, copies, facsimiles, secretarial or autopen autographs. Each autograph is sold with a uniquely numbered, tamper evident label. This unique number is also printed on our Certificate Of Authenticity. We hold a master record of all of our autographs sold and can immediately confirm the authenticity of each item and usually when and where the autograph was obtained.
We often obtain multiples of many of our autographs, and as such, the actual autograph position shown on this website may vary very slightly from the autograph that would actually receive. If the change of autograph position is considerable, if the signer adds a comment or if another colour pen was used than in the item photo, then we will contact you for approval before shipping that particular autograph. All of our autographs are on 8" x 10" high quality photographic paper unless noted against the individual items details. None of our autographs are dedicated. All of our autographed photos are in new undamaged condition unless otherwise noted. The photo and autograph are usually look much nicer than the scanned picture.
Authenticity Guarantee
Above and beyond your statutory rights as set out in the UK Distance selling regulations, each and every autograph that we sell comes with a 100% money back Authenticity guarantee as stipulated by the RACC, AFTAL or UACC dealer codes of ethics. This Guarantee applies to autographs deemed to have "Failed" Third Party Authentication (TPA) by industry recognised Third Part Authentication (TPA) companies. Becketts, ACOA and SWAU are among those acceptable TPA companies. A copy of the Third Party Authenticator's "Failure" letter would be required by us before we can accept any return of this type. An autograph found to be "Inconclusive" or "Pushed" by a Third Party Authenticator is not, by definition, considered to have "Failed" and will not be covered by this guarantee. This returns exclusion also includes TPA "Quick Opinion" "Not Likely Genuine" results as these also are not full Failures with associated "Failure" letters. TPA "Quick Opinion" checks are a great resource for the autograph industry especially when considering purchasing an autograph of value. Our money back Authenticity Guarantee is only available to the original purchaser having purchased directly from us and no other third party. Any refunds can only be paid to the original funding source.

Watermarks
Many of the images on this website will show a "Celebrity Ink Autographs" watermark. This watermark is NOT on the autographed photo itself. Watermarks are used by us to prevent the copying of our images. Copied images might end up for sale as either reprints or even being passed off as original autographs. We at Celebrity Ink Autographs will do everything in our power to prevent such forgeries making their way to the open market, hence the adoption of the watermark.
Exclusions:
We reserve the right to cancel any order, without explanation, at any time if we feel that the order is made with any kind of malicious or fraudulent intent against Celebrity Ink Autographs.
IMPORTANT. We do not ship to South American countries due to the aggressive import taxation on Signed For commercial items posted to certain countries there. PLEASE do not order from this site if you are a resident in South America as we will have to cancel your order. Currently we cannot remove South American countries from our checkout so even though it is actually possible for you to physically place your order, we will not fulfil your order and will refund you. This issue is only with South American Countries. We are sorry that blocking South American customers has become necessary.
