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 this piece-of-crap forged Mickey Mantle baseball sold by Ebay seller Prettygirl823 for $455.

Someone just threw $455.00 down the toilet for this laughable garbage.

The worthless COA is from Howard's Sports Collectibles.

Look at this crap!!!

I will continue to expose Ebay sellers of forgeries.

This garbage continues to infect our hobby.
