Yikes. $400 nets a nice UDA ball most days. I know I only paid $350 for a Steiner ball a little while back. People trust this guy because he's on tv.

Any competent authenticator would know Mantle had a narrow window to sign Budig baseballs and any Mantle signed Budig ball should be examined very closely.

Secondly, a qualified Mantle examiner should have Greg Marino forgery exemplars in his files. If he did, he'd see this was signed by Greg Marino.

The key words there, Mr. Zipper, are "Competent Authenticator."  Drew Max is not and we all know it.

Zipper, that is what popped out at me, when I saw the listing before.  it was on a Budig ball, definitely a red flag. As if the Drew Max cert was not enough of a flag.

I guess the buyer from the first auction backed out? Or he has tons of those balls?
