A cert is not a magic wand, it is only an OPINION. An opinion that an extensive advertising campaign has helped to force on this hobby. They want to make you believe that they wave a wand and are infallible but they are not.
It is an opinion that has been wrong at times as this board well knows.
The ball has a value. In some people's thoughts the cert gives them confidence that someone with an OPINION thinks it is authentic. That may result in the ball selling more readily.
And based on the picture, in my OPINION, I think the Foxx is ok, looks a little hinky because he had to squeeze his signature in. I would not say for certain though without having it in my hand.
