and well you should be scared rabbit....When you are starting out , especially with limited funds, it is great to be afraid. That afford you the opportunity to actually study a signature before you buy it. Here's a good rule of thumb for you starting out.

Fudd's RULE#1

NEVER buy a autograph on a China Grove Baseball. NEVER. Rinse. REPEAT!!! 999 chance out of 1000, they are forgeries. On the slimmest of chances that it is real, the autograph will fade, smudge and generally look like hell. Maybe you haven't seen my favorite video about the China Balls??

When the sun comes up on a sleepy little town
Down around San Antone
Said the folks are risin' for another day
'Round about their homes

The people of the town are strange
And they're proud of where they came
Well, I'm talkin' 'bout your China Ball
woah oh, China Ball

The preacher and the teacher
Lord, they're a caution, they are the talk of the town
And when the gossip gets to flyin' and they ain't lyin'
When the sun goes underground

They say that the father's insane
And dear Mrs. Perkin's a game
Oh, talkin' 'bout your China Ball
woah oh, China Ball

Every day there's a new thing comin'
Ways of an oriental view
The sheriff and his buddies with their Samurai swords
You can even hear the music at night

Though it's a part of the Lone Star State
People don't seem to care
They just keep on lookin' to the easy way

Talkin' 'bout your China Ball
,woah oh, China Ball
I'm gonna tell ya now, yeah

And at 16 bucks at the moment, I suspect if you "win" it, you will actually lose. Now back to the Doobies!

Forgeries.  IMO.  Waino is a no go.  Why would you get these big name players all on china balls. 

Yadi is hard to get as well.  So why would you go and pay a bunch O green to get a china ball signed.  Makes no sense to me.
