Doesn't this PSA sticker look odd?

[MichaelS]

Hello,

I have decided to focus on gettting an autographed baseball from all the times the SoCal teams have made it to the world series. I was looking at this one, and thought this sticker seemed odd.

I checked at the PSA number is correct.

What is your thoughts, would you stay away from this ball?

Thanks very much.

It's fine, if you like stickered balls. Both PSA and Spence use these stickers that do not conform well to a spherical surface. They never sit flat, and are an eye sore, IMO.

I would hold out for a non-stickered one. But that's just from an aesthetics standpoint... in terms of authenticity, I'm sure this one's fine.

It's up to you..

The PSA/DNA stickers were designed for flat surfaces, so can have bends and popped edges when on a baseball. Not a rare occurrence. Sometimes they look as if they're about to fall off.

Thanks for the comments, and see that on other balls. What concerns me more is it appears to covered in oil, or something. I think I will pass on this one.

I really like the psa certification, to back up the signatures.
