Had done my research prior to bidding but still wanted to have the comfort of knowing all the TPG agreed on the authenticity, and they have.  |
First off, this thread should be moved to the autograph section
Secondly, GLOBAL is about as bad as it gets. A global cert on anything would make me think there was a greater chance of it being bad than good.
JSA and PSA nods will at least protect you from losing your ass as far as investment. If you are happy with it, it sounds like you have a winner.
Personally, I would never buy a ball unless it could be traced back(directly) to Ruth's hand and had JSA and PSA nods. They are just too much money to risk and there are so many other things to buy without authenticity issues.
