I was just offered this ball in an e mail apparently from the guy who bought it in the auction.
We have had an interesting e mail exchange ![]()

He did not quote me a price and I rejected the ball immediately and told him what I thought of the ball and of him.
In his e mail subject line to me were the words: "Would you be interested in buying this Babe Ruth ball" One of the funny lines in his following e mails said: "I thought maybe you could help but was I wrong." He never asked for my help, all he did was try to sell the ball to me and claim that the interview did not tell his story completely. I do not, for the life of me, know why he thought I could help or why I would even help him in this instance. btw - He did mock us all here on 54 when I told him that people are mocking him on an internet forum.

He should have taken the money AAU offered him and run. Lesson learned with no monetary loss.
But apparently he is bent on flipping a fake for a profit. The greed and/or stupidity of some people is beyond belief.

If he consigns that ball to CC, he would probably get his money back and maybe some profit. Some bidder that doesn't know it's history will buy it.
