Seller states that he left the listing up in order to save himself from having to pay a fee for taking it down early.

If it was a "Buy It Now" or "Buy It Now/Best Offer" auction, there is no fee for taking it down early.

It's irrelevant now.

Just get your money back.

Yeah, that ^^^

Is it the fact that he stated that he obtained all signatures in person that leads you to believe it is fake? OR are there serious issues with the signatures themselves?

When I opine on autographs, I only consider the autographs....nothing else.

Chris, just curious but do you know whether there are authentic autographs out there with both on the sweet spot? It just seems odd to me that they would share that location, although I know little about autographs.

In this hobby you will hear all kinds of stories. The stories rarely ring true and have no relevance as to the authenticity of the autographs . Also photos of the item being signed and ticket stubs of the signing also don't guarantee authenticity. Even a COA now days doesn't help because they are now being forged . It always comes down to is it good or not - and nothing else .
If you had researched the signatures even a little bit you would have seen how bad they were and how easy it was to tell that this ball is bad .

In other news. Got this Nolan Ryan ball that I'm pretty sure is legit. I'm getting my money back on the other ball.
