Comment by Jeffery Kite on April 12, 2013 at 4:51pm: Rhonda, I think the Luis Polonia is OK. I compared it to a JSA example off of ebay, and they both compared well to each other. Also, a dealer friend of mine once told me that there is no money in these nominal players enough to forge a ball. Forgers are going to forge big ticket items that most people are looking for - Mantle, Williams, DiMaggio, Ruth, Aaron, etc.

Comment by VolFins on April 13, 2013 at 12:08pm: I never thought of it that way, that makes perfect sense. Ebay kinda threw me off a little bit because there's an autographed ball of his listed for 200 bux, NOT happening. Which one did you look at ? Both or just one ?

Comment by Jeffery Kite on April 14, 2013 at 4:18am: Yeah, it was the $200 one!

Comment by Jeffery Kite on April 14, 2013 at 8:08am: Should have been a little more clearer. I compared the one you are considering with the JSA certified one for sale on ebay for $200.

Comment by VolFins on April 14, 2013 at 3:13pm: I'm the one who caused the confusion, I THOUGHT I had posted two links of different baseballs, but it was only one. Sorry. Here's the other one.

Comment by VolFins on April 15, 2013 at 2:25pm: Hey guys, I would appreciate your input on some uncommon autographed baseballs from the 1995 World Series Braves team. Thoughts on authenticity and seller's reputation would greatly be appreciated. Thank you in advance !
