Why are these two balls different prices?


From Grandma

Not From Grandma

    They should have buried Grandpa's balls with him when he died.

    I don't know, with all the latest brouhaha regarding autograph certification companies, I don't know that I'd ever feel comfortable buying something like this.

    I predict the autograph market will be dead within ten years.

    I dont know, they look identical to me imageimage

    Look how fresh the signature looks on Grandma's old ball. Thats really a pathetic attempt.

    Looks like grandma's a scam artist to me.

    I have a picture of grandma....

    ACK! Jery!!!! There's that pic again! That chick..um..dude...er...anyway, won't ever be flying anywhere, never make it through the metal detector.

    Is it just me or does that first one look like a dirty 80's baseball with a relatively fresh black ink "auto" on it. I use the term auto very loosely in this context... It's not even a good forgery.

    What they failed to mention was that Grandma's ball was an Official American League Ball (Bobby Brown Pres.). What a joke!

    Grandma's ball was either lost or broken. Darn the luck.

    This is a good case of the old saying:
    If gramma had, for real, Babe Ruth's ball, she'ld be my grampa! That looks like a Bic auto!

    I think the gum I have been autographing and sending with my trades looks better than that one!

    Jery,

    That is some picture.

    My guesses:

    10) Martha Stewart's new look
    9) The reason you never fall asleep in a frat house
    8) If that's a normal day, what does he/she/it go as for Halloween?
    7) The poster for the end of internet dating
    6) "Don't ever double dare me again!"
    5) "I'll show that dean who flunked me out of rodeo clown college."
    4) Still better looking than Oprah
    3) "Doc, I keep having nightmares about refrigerator magnets."
    2) Freaky T. Clown died today when carousel riders mistook her for the ring dispenser at Coney Island.
    1) "I won't do anal. A girl/guy has to know where to draw the line."

    Best,

    S.
