This is a horrible, horrible Puig forgery certified by PSA/DNA and yes, the cert checks out on the site.

Here is a comparison with 100% authentic Puig signed balls:The one above is the top one below. This ISN'T EVEN CLOSE...
They note "RookieGraph", when you look up the cert number, but this is a horrible forgery. PSA/DNA dropped the ball on this one. Here is an old Puig sig:
now these numskulls are in the PIG forging game too! Very nice.....
Nice job PSA. Pulling out all stops to recapture market share.
For the record, just because there is a cert in that picture doesn't mean it is of the signature you have shown there to be an obvious fake. It's plausible that the fake signature is not the same ball as the one with the psa sticker. Could be a bait and switch.
forget what I said in the last post. the ball is not an official MLB. Its a cheaper ball.
I'm aware of this, and I don't think that is the case on this one.
it's a cheap version of a ROMLB which is why the sweet spot is shiny. There are other pictures in the auction, the seams line up, it's the same ball IMO.
Just looks like they're showing off all the panels in the auction photos...
I never said PSA/DNA services were worthless, but if they indeed did cert this it is a JOKE. This isn't even a "good" forgery.
So this PSA/DNA approval turned this $2 ball into $150-$200 instantly... *magic*
Whether PSA/DNA certified the ball or not, almost all of the switched COA/LOA fraud would be caught if an image of the autographed piece was available online. They put a dot of synthetic DNA on the piece to prevent switching, but that can only be checked in person.
I don't understand why they do not include verification photographs on the online database for ALL autographs they authenticate. It's silly of them not to.
They'd have to answer why they don't, Mike, but I agree with you completely. It shouldn't just be the LOAs that get imaged and posted in their online database.
