I need some help here. I like to go to flea markets and stumbled across this 500 home run ball signed by 11 HOFers. Would you buy this baseball for this price? Do they look real? It is authenticated by Scoreboard, should this throw up a red flag. I respect alot of your opinions and believe you can give me some guidance. Thanks for the help!

Here an ebay links to similar ball, what do you think?

    That looks like the typical "Operation Bullpen" fake 500 homerun balls. It is no good in my opinion.

    If it is legit I believe that to be a solid price, but I know there was some big scandal with scoreboard that some more knowledgeable board members will be able to chime in on.


    I like its looks though lol


    edit because my grammar sucks

    The 500 HR ball looks worrisome. The Gwynn appears to be legit. The Aaron, although slightly obscured in the picture, appears to be secretarial (Aaron typically does not connect the capital "A" and small "a" in Aaron).

    11 autographs on a 500 HR ball, including Ted and The Mick for $299.00???? I say No Good! If they ARE good, I say jump on it.
    STAY HEALTHY!

    I thought the signatures looked good and clean, but I am not an expert. I dont want to buy and send it to PSA and come back not authentic, anyone have any other options?

    I say fake. No good ever came from Scoreboard COA's I have had a couple, all fake. I say avoid.

    If it seems too go to be true, it is.

    Mantle and Williams would never share a sweet spot.

    I agree that the Mantle is a giveaway that it is NFG
