Awesome Yard Sale Find......One of the best.....

[sberry]

My wife found a yard sale today in a small town near where we live well as we pulled up I immediately saw a shadow box wall hanging with 2 baseballs, well as we got closer I noticed it was Ken Griffey Jr. and Alex Rodriguez Autographed balls and a limited edition numbered to only 300. So I asked the old guy how much and trust me it blew my mind when he said $50, so I forked it over and also picked up a box of 15 1977-82 Star Wars figures with a 1977 C3PO in Awesome shape and an original box of GoBots in the original box for another $25 anyways below is the baseball find......Let me know what kind of value it should have......

I acutally had a garage sale today, and had a guy bring me back his childhood collection to sell to me. So I had a garage sale and in the end, spent money buying someone else's cards. He came back after lunch with a binder. All pretty much 1959-1964. Some pretty nice cards, and he had a friend of his price everything out according to beckett. Had over $4K worth if you used beckett pricing, but that isn't figuring for condition naturally. I didn't want to totally burst his bubble, but he had a reason for parting with them. In the end, I bought them for $200 and he was happy.

Now, I gotta figure out how to explain to my wife later that we made about $250 on the garage sale, but I spent $200 of it on cards, LOL. That is a sweet find for $50!

They set up at the National. Javier Padron runs that company. Reason I asked is that I feel funny about that Arod sig, it just doesn't look right to me- the Griffey looks good to me. Maybe others here can share their opinions also if they have Arod sigs to compare.

Well here is my Autographed Alex Rodriguez Ball along with one from PSA/DNA look pretty similar in many ways......Give your thoughts.


My ball:

PSA/DNA authenticated ball

I have some a-rod IP autos I got back in the day when he was back in Seattle and they look like those. I think they are Legit.
