I expect that others here are likely aware of this section of the hobby. Nonetheless, there may be others like me who aren’t necessarily autograph collectors and like me are uninformed.

Hi Mike!,
Yeah, this segment of the hobby, as with any segment, can have high prices depending on how badly the collector needs it. To me, I just can't fork out that much more money (I believe a single signed Gomez ball goes for about $250). I have some balls with the HOF inscription, and many without, but I'm just not so OCD that it really matters anymore LOL.
Congrats on the sale price though. I think you did real well.
