Ridiculous ebay listing
Authentic "hand signed" 1982 World Series ball. I contacted the seller to tell him this is not hand signed (and it's not even a 1982 ball). He actually argued that the ink smudges proves it's hand signed. Rather than argue, I reported it as fraudulent to ebay. Predictably, they did nothing. It sold. I did the ".ca" trick with the URL and it sold for $150. Incredible:

Not sure which is more surprising: that he would stick to his story when confronted, or that someone would pay $150 for that.
For future reference, you may actually have better luck getting such things yanked by posting them here than by e-mailing eBay directly. Unless you know the right people, eBay doesn't pay much heed to the lone voice crying in the wilderness. It seems at least one of the "right people" pays close attention to what is posted here though.

I love that the ball actually has an advertisement for Xerox!

It's crazy. I'm new here. From now on when I see something so off the wall, I'll post it. Imagine someone showing you that ball and telling you they paid $150 for it. "Xerox", "Taiwan"?
