Hello all,

I recently purchased a PSA in the presence Kobe Bryant signed basketball from eBay (seller stated he has the sticker but no COA, which I'll probably be requesting from PSA).

The PSA sticker, ball, age of the signature (based on the ink, since PSA states on their website it was signed ITP in 2001) all look good to me but just wanted to get a quick second opinion since you all seem to be good at spotting eBay fakes. I'm a little paranoid currently because a few weeks ago I purchased another signed PSA sticker/COA Kobe basketball starting with the "B" digit code on the sticker; I didn't realize it was fake until I received the ball in the mail, saw the sticker was cut oddly and looked off, happened to look at eBay and found another identical ball with the same PSA sticker and number as mine  -.-  (Listed by a different seller!). After some research, a lot of people pointed out that it seems like PSA stickers with the B digit have several fakes out there associated with them. 

Anyway, here is the current ball I just purchased. Any opinions on the condition/ authenticity of the PSA sticker and the signature will be greatly appreciated (I'll probably end up sending in the ball for a Letter of Authenticity from another company other than PSA as well after I receive the ball). Thanks for any help.
