Ebay Seller Bill4144 Sells Forged Mickey Mantle Baseball NO 7

Before I continue, below are links showing hundreds of examples of forged Mickey Mantle baseballs, photos, etc. found on Ebay (the most dangerous place to buy autographs if you're a casual collector or impulse buyer).

Check out the below forged Mickey Mantle baseball sold by Ebay seller Bill4144 for $212.50.

When does an autographed Mickey Mantle on a "1994 World Series" baseball with the inscription NO 7 sell for a whopping $212.50?

When it's a mass-produced and pathetically-penned forgery.

First, an authentic Mantle on a "1994 World Series" baseball is extremely rare; then add the NO 7 inscription.   Seriously?

Is the buyer just a delusional autograph collector or will they attempt to flip it on Ebay?

$212.50 down the toilet.

Garbage like this is easy to sell because Ebay is so heavily-populated with delusional autograph collectors and impulse buyers.

It's 2023 and people still have this notion that Ebay filters out the forgeries; nothing could be further from the truth.

The forgery business is huge these days on Ebay; bigger than during the years of Operation Bullpen.
