Approximate value of this Gil Hodges ball?
5 Attachment(s)
Hi guys,
I'm starting to go through my autograph collection to sell some of it off. Most of it isn't worth too much, but this Hodges ball is probably an exception. I don't have any doubts about it's authenticity. I'll get it authenticated before i sell it, but that will just be a formality. It has Hodges on one panel and Wally Moon on another. It was obtained in LA in 1969 and looks to be an official NL ball from that year. If anyone would be so kind as to take a look at it and give me a general idea of what its worth, I would be very grateful. Thanks for looking! Luke |

I'm planning to sell this and use the money for my pre-war card collection. Any ideas on value? Any suggestions for which auction house to use if I go that route? Really appreciate any help. I haven't been in the autograph portion of the hobby for quite awhile.

I got my PSA paperwork back, and threw the ball up on ebay:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Gil-Hodges-s...item20e7224278 I still wouldn't mind hearing if anyone has an idea of what it's worth. I priced it high just because I don't really know what it's worth. Did I get zero replies just because something like this varies greatly in value? |
So do you mind if I ask how you arrived at the price you want for it. No offense but I have never seen a Hodges ball go for that much anywhere.
But good luck to you. |
My guess would be $200 to $250. Just my opinion.

To me the value drops because it isn't a single signed Hodges. If it were I would guess between 400-800.00 depending on what someone would pay. I'm looking for a single signed ball and would pay those prices but since it isn't would think it is only worth 200-300.00. If you look at team signed balls with Hodges on the sweet spot they aren't worth that much.

The fact that Luke listed the Gil Hodges ball too high is not a deal breaker.
He can easily change the BIN price or end the auction and relist it. No big deal other than adjusting one's expectations of what the ball will bring in auction... ;) |

I didn't notice it was an old thread until it became a thing. One person said something negative.
I did however give my opinion of value without hammering him on his asking price. |
Only one guy gave his opinion in a way that implied he thought I was an idiot. Thank you to everyone else. And thanks Scott, I wanted to reply in a much harsher way than you did, but I'm trying to refrain from getting into internet arguments this week :)

Nice Item though...Good Luck! |
Figured I would update this in case anyone was curious, or if someone uses search function in the future trying to price something similar. Final price was $595 on ebay.

Seems like you got a pretty good price for it Luke. Nicely done!
