Ink Inspector is an unbiased third-party grading and authentication company, aimed at affordably combating the counterfeiting and forgery of autographed collectibles.  Started by collectors in California as a direct response to price-gouging in the authentication industry, Ink Inspector presently also operates out of Mt. Pleasant, Michigan and has hubs in three states (Michigan, California, and Kentucky).  We've been aiding collectors for more than a decade.  We specialize in the assessment of items from 1950-present that reside in the $0-$500 price range.  Understandably, most collectors are not willing to spend $30 to authenticate a $10 autograph.  In those scenarios - and most others - Ink Inspector is an excellent, trust-worthy alternative to other companies.
