Can you guys and girls help me out.  I have read many of your posts and you all seem very astute and on top of what is real or forged.  I would really appreciate you looking over my 500-HR Club baseball.  Mantle and Williams are on the sweet spot.  Do these autographs look authentic ?  I have the COA from back in 2001 when I bought it, but I don't trust those much anymore. Thank you for your examinations, opinions and thoughts.  Bob

Really ?  Ryan do they all look like forgeries my friend ?  How can you tell ?

100 percent not authentic, sorry.

Thanks Jeff.  That's what I was worried about.  I got this ball from someone on e-Bay in 2001. They got it from CSC Collectibles in Florida.  I saw recently that they were banned from selling anything on e-Bay anymore.  I called them and the guy told me he couldn't refund my money, even though the COA says for the lifetime of the ball. I told him it is a lifetime guarantee, and gave him the certification number.  He said that it was too old and they don't even have a record of it anymore.  So I will be glad to contact the Florida Attorney General's Office.

They are all horrible forgeries. CSC Collectibles is nothing but junk typical Florida forgeries we've seen and exposed a thousand times. "Lifetime Guarantees" and "Cert #'s" don't mean anything on these bogus COAs, it's just there to make the buyer give away their money quicker. Chalk it up as a lesson learned and do the right thing and burn the ball.
