Most would have passed it on, regardless of what they may have stated on here publicly. I also think it is low to use your honesty in that matter, to attack you. Regardless of what others may state, this hobby of autograph collecting has become a dismal, unenjoyable, cesspool, of thieves, liars, politics, back stabbing, garbage. Even when someone does something right, a lot of people find something negative to say.

Dave-
Where did anyone say something negative about David exposing the 1927 ball?
I cannot find such a post but correct me if I am wrong.
The focus of this thread is that David says he sold a ball that ebay removed despite the ball having a COA from PSA.
Usually when that happens on ebay there is a serious reason. A very serious reason. PSA certs are almost never removed by ebay. Like I said a very serious reason.

Thx.

That was the original question by Mr. Canfield.

He changed the title to "FS: Two signed 1920s Yankee baseballs SOLD!" meaning, yes, they sold.. In Public, he told us all.

Jon Canfield asked the question after ebay removed the ball.
You can click the link in David's first post and see that the ebay sale was removed by ebay.
I guess Jon clicked that link.
David then added the word SOLD to his post, AFTER the question was asked.
Jon seemingly had the same problem I did with the word SOLD.
Jon, please correct me if I am wrong about that.
ebay removes the ball and all of a sudden it is SOLD?
Ok,let us say it was sold.
He sold one that was removed by ebay.
Better to say SOLD then to say it was removed.
Better to say SOLD then to say removed by ebay and then I sold it.
Saying it was removed by ebay is conceding that the autographs were questionable.

How do we know that Jon meant that? Did he "privately" tell you that? He could have been an interested customer wondering if the ball was still available. In your words, did Jon not have the balls to come out and publicly ask David if he sold a ball "that was removed by ebay."

The original question was asked, David changed the title to something that answered the question. I am tired of the agendas.

I don't know what John meant, that is why I am asking him.
Maybe Jon wanted to not embarrass David about it and not bring up removed by ebay
And I will say that perhaps I should have started my first post by asking David "David, you sold a ball after ebay removed it?"

I was typing my reply before you asked Jon in your edit.

Your comment made me realize that my post was not totally clear so I appreciate the chance to clarify it.
Thanks Matt.
