I'd be interested in the ball for $70.

Really? Do you see what they r going for? Although this isn't mine, I'm not going to insult my friend with that offer, Unless he takes it which I highly doubt he'll even consider.

No worries if you're not interested. I noticed there had been no interest in the piece, so I thought I'd offer you the price I'd be interested in paying for McCovey, who is a very common signature.

Common yes, but he’s passed on now, so there won’t be anymore. PSA/DNA authentic McCovey balls are selling for about $200. You’re offer is insulting as it costs more than $70 to even authenticate through PSA...but he is common so I’m sure you can easily find one for your $70 offer... oh and Scott posted this 14 days ago... not 14 months... sometimes it takes a few weeks to sell something.

If you want to low ball at least send a PM so they can just ignore you and not make yourself look like a jerk publicly.

Just to clear up some inaccuracies, McCovey MLB balls (without inscriptions) that are PSA/DNA certified are going for about $110. Here are 2 that recently sold for that amount.

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Willie-McCo...IAAOSwE~1cBvPo

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Willie-McCo...UAAOSwa55cFU8E

Again, those are completed sales that actually sold . There are plenty still for sale on eBay in that price range. in fact, here is a really nice one still for sale for $90.

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Willie-McCo...Zbu:rk:45:pf:0

Yes, the $70 offer was about $40 less than what they're going for on eBay but, then again, a $200 asking price is about $90 more than what they're going for on eBay. It's Scott's ball (well, his friends) and he can ask what he wants, but a $70 offer is not as far off as the $200 asking price. And, for what it's worth, PSA/DNA only charges $20 to certify McCovey autos (not $70).

Good luck with the sale, but you might want to have your friend reconsider his asking price.

Guess ball certification is cheaper then... or maybe it’s around the player? I’ve only ever had Mickey Mantle autos authenticated and it cost me $100 and had though that was simply the going rate for HOFers.... oh well... I just didn’t like the way that other guy was acting, not that I’m ever a jerk

As I said - without ever calling you any names - I'd be interested in the ball at $70. That's clearly not what you're looking for, so I moved on.

However, I make it a point to be courteous and professional on this board, and on the others of which I am a member. In that light, I make sure not to be anything but polite and matter-of-fact to people, which I was to you. If you don't like people who are matter-of-fact, that's a you problem, not anyone else's problem.

Thank you to the other posters who offered great context about the market value of Willie McCovey baseballs. The more information that we have on forums like this, the more informed trades, sales and posters are, and that's a big win for the hobby.
