"Slightly" compared to some, "massively higher" compared to others.
Someone could slip into your home at night and switch the 'real' ball with a forgery. Aliens could descend and implant new memories in your brain while you are sleeping. Granted, these things are unlikely, but given the care I've taken to avoid doing so, so are the odds of my purchasing a forgery.
I disagree with using the logic that unless you see it signed, it could be fake - it's an excuse that a lot of people use to collect items that have a high chance of being forgeries.
No offense intended - I realize that my response might seem confrontational, but it really isn't intended that way. Your view probably represents the majority on this forum, and I completely understand it. If you didn't use that logic, you could never feel comfortable buying single-signed baseballs.
