Typically a little more just because of the relationship between the two.

There are balls PSA/DNA and JSA certified balls for $40-55, and bats certified starting around $115. Probably not worth paying to authenticate them as it would cost $25+ per item at least minimum. As Zipper said, you're best bet would be to sell them separately and privately. eBay fees are ridiculous sometimes. Selling them as a whole you'd get screwed, and card shops usually offer half of what they'll sell it for. (Around here at least, and that's being generous). I'd be interested in a bat/ball, my dad is a huge Rose fan, would make a nice Xmas gift. Let me know when she figures out what she wants.

Just checked, PSA/DNA actually charges $20 to authenticate Rose, which is about how much value it seems to add to the piece, so not worth authenticating IMHO.

I sure will Ryan . Your the first to ask and you'll have first choice if she decides she will sell one . She is a widow and will not be able to pay any fees so I'll talk to her tommorow and see what she wants to do . I'm off all day tommorow and will get back to ya
