ok I have looked at the auto and inscription examples really close and am really good with buying the ball. Runscott has been a very good mentor to me and has showed me alot in the last year but mostly he has taught me to trust my gut feeling. Scott has helped me every time I have needed it without question. Dont get me wrong he hasnt done the legwork for me but made me do my own. thanks again guys!!!!

Mike - that was really nice of you to say that. I thought most of the time I had just acted like a chicken when you showed me an autograph.
My 'gut' is also good on the Maris - if the price is right, it will be tough to pass it up since it has your name on it.

Personally I would think that if someone was going to take the time for forge a signature that they wouldn't personalize it. Now if I could only find something signed by Earl Averill personalized to Mike for my collection.

No you guys are correct the ebay auction for this ball ended on thanksgiving eve. It was a ball sent to Jsa a few weeks before from a private collection. authenticated and put up for auction on ebay. The listing ended thanksgiving night. Sold for 922. up until last few seconds I thought I was safe with a 900 dollar bid then lost it. the next tuesday I saw it posted again in a "buy it now setting" The guy who won the ball is a dealer and bought it low in hopes to sell it high. I then contacted him and we negotiated a price for the ball. He made money and I got my ball that I wanted so in the end it worked out.

P.s> I paid for the ball in the end was only 100 bucks more than I wanted to spend but didnt think the auction would end anywhere near that amount. Lesson learned on my part always bid maximum amount willing to spend...saves alot of heart ache. Up until The ball was listed again that tuesday I thought I lost it and was kicking myself hard over a few hundred bucks. in the end guy sold it to me for a reasonable price doing the right thing to make sure ball was in the hand of a collector named mike.....stand up guy for sure. he won auction fair and square and didnt have to cut me a break at all but did the right thing.
