I'm thinking it is the real deal based off of these 2 auctions which are both Mears Authenticated and share similar characteristics to mine all be it mine is in much worse shape.

The MEARS A7 bat is interesting. Yours has a couple of markings like that one that are ordinarily clear signs of a retail bat -- but MEARS says that their bat is an exception. Still, your bat doesn't seem to have the same professional finish and good stamping as theirs does. If I were you, I would call them to discuss the bat, and I'd ask how they would value it and what fee they would charge to grade it. If it isn't very much, then I'd send it in to find out what they say. If you do, let us know what they say.
