I don't get the big deal bout how many are watching, as a buyer. You had a price to bid in mind, and that was your bid. If there was one or twenty, it'd take your top bid, at least the amt needed, snipe or live bid.
That said, if I had the means, a piece like that ball would thrill me. I see people spend crazy money on photos, and cards and more generic things, tho they are of course, desirable. Something like this, w the history and what it represents, is so much more "alive" IMO, and would inspire daydreaming in my mind. The ball survived all those years in the Catcher's family and somehow made it to flea bay.
IMO, simply one of my favorite items I've seen on there this year. Im Jealous, but congrats to Mr Shoeless Moe on such an AWESOME FIND SIR.
