Made Questionable Purchase, Please Help

Hello everyone, I am very new to the autograph hobby and do not know much at all. I purchased 4 autographed pictures at my local auction last weekend and was extremely excited about this purchase until I did some research on the company that the COA is with. I know it is probably a rookie mistake to take every COA seriously, but I fell for it. The company is ACE and everything that I have read is terrible. I would like to get another company to authenticate them for me but I cannot afford to waste anymore money for someone to say they are fake. Hopefully someone has some good news.

What I have is Christian Bale (batman), Hugh Jackman (wolverine), Harrison Ford (indiana jones), and tim allen and tom hanks (toy story). I have looked online nad the Harrison Ford looks like it may be legit, but once again I am very new to this and could be seeing it look legit to make myself feel better. I paid 130 for all four. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

That's what I thought, I found a thread that had a bunch of ford's autographs on it and mine does look from my untrained eye legit. Yeah I guess that is the siliver lining :)

The Harrison Ford looks genuine to me, the Tom Hanks looks bad...I don't know the others. BUT...you need to make sure that the Ford autograph isn't a reproduction. It makes no sense that anyone who knew autographs would send it to ACE. I'd be surprised if only 99% of their autographs were forgeries.

I would not worry about it just refer anybody you sell it to to this blog. dont waste money sending it to PSA if you know its good they get things wrong too. But I would not waste time or energy messing up the photo you could mat the sticker out and put it on the wall!
