Joe Dimaggio Autographed Budig Ball-PSA Really???

I am baffled by this one.  This is a power seller with perfect feedback, that is listing a Joe D signed baseball that does appear to have a PSA sticker on it.

When I first saw the listing, and noticed that the ball was covering the cert number, I figured it was a typical scammer trying to use a PSA cert to peddle an obvious forgery.  But if you look at the ball, there does appear to be a PSA sticker on it.

Perhaps the seller was duped?  I can't believe a power seller like this would purposely mislead the poor ebay buyers.  And based on that price, they really believe they have a pearl here.

Any theories as to how this could have happened?  I know PSA gets things wrong from time to time but they are usually pretty accurate with Joe D signatures.

If you look closely at the number on the PSA cert in one of the photos in the listing, it does not match the one that they pasted showing the opinion.

Here's a Mantle forgery Ebay seller Sportsworld-Auctions attempted to sell.

And on a Budig baseball.  Typical scam.

I have reported this seller directly to PSA.

PSA would never "authenticate" crap like that!!!

Good work terrier AND Christopher...

I took it upon myself to click on the Ebay link and made the effort to "contact the seller".

Surprise -- surprise...you cannot contact this seller directly.  Any questions you might have about this or any item he sells will not be entertained.

Now that's what I call customer service. Pffffffttt...

This is an awful forgery, surely PSA/DNA did not cert this, but it would not surprise me. They've slabbed 50+ awful Mattingly attempts recently, when I contacted them In the past about obvious forgeries they "authenticated" they essentially said "If you don't like it, don't buy it."
