I don't think the seller is intentionally selling this UNIT as an authentic Tiger signed ball or rookie card for that matter.
It looks like a "collector's item" that one might find as a special offer somewhere.
Athough, there could be a few people that might be naive enough to think the auto is real, it appears that everyone that has previously bought one is happy with his/her purchase.
The rookie card is probably bogus too.
The problem I have is that the "set" is listed under "vintage golf balls" and the balls are definitely NOT vintage.
The Woods card is his 2001 UD Golf rookie. The ball is a facsimile signature special "edition" . If someone thinks their actually getting a Tiger signed golfball for $16.99, then I have to think their dumber than mintacular
<< <i>I don't see where he claims it's a real sig anyway. Just a ball display with a card holder glued to the back of it. >>
But his auction title is a little misleading Again, though, only for stupid folks Interesting that he wrote a book called "Collecting Signature Golf Balls" This book was followed by his less-popular second edition: "Collecting Golf Balls with Golfer's Names on Them that I Signed Myself"
I think purchasing a $17 Tiger Woods signature golf ball is like purchasing a $40 George Foreman Signature Grill...you aren't going to get a cookoff-used lean, mean, grilling machine with authentic Foreman signature...
You'll get a piece of plastic with George Foreman's endorsement and facsimile signature.
