500 home run ball. Mantle Williams Mays

I saw this listing yesterday. I don't know whether to feel bad for him or if he's flat out full of s***! He had this up at $3,000 and then when I looked at it this morning, it was cut in half. As you can see, they are obvious forgeries.

For sale is (1) Official American League Baseball signed by 12 members of the 500 Home Run Club. 
They consist of the following: 
Mickey Mantle *
Ted Williams *
Hank Aaron
Eddie Mathews *
Willie McCovey *
Mike Schmidt 
Ernie Banks *
Harmon Killebrew *
Frank Robinson *
Willie Mays
Eddie Murray
Reggie Jackson
7 of the 12 signatures are of players who are deceased (*). 
I purchased the ball back in '00 for $1000 in cash and trade from a local card shop in phoenix.  
The COA shows date of purchase and is the only paperwork I received when I purchased it. 
I have been holding on to this for nearly 20 years, hoping to put my kid through college someday. 
Unfortunately, I really need cash and have to sell it.
Reasonable offers will be considered. 
WILL SHIP INSURED WITH SIGNATURE REQUIRED FOR DELIVERY
USPS TRACKING INFO PROVIDED UPON PAYMENT

my guess is he knows its a forgery, otherwise, why cut the price in half?  This is one of the worst I have seen.

That crap has been listed for weeks on Ebay.  I have no doubt the seller is very aware of what they are selling.
