I'd say no and delay to hold onto the ball for at least a full year, so I could then argue it was now subject to long term capital gain federal tax rates and keep the potential tax savings. On a $3MM sale you're talking around an extra quarter million dollars or more in your pocket, just by being a little patient.

Suppose Goldin, the seller, and the potential $3 mil buyer work a deal where the ball is offered with a $2.5 million reserve, and if the reserve isn't met, the buyer gets it for $2.5 mil. Something like that would mean: 1. Goldin gets a ton of publicity for offering another mega item, and chance to set a new record for a baseball. 2. Seller has the chance to score huge. 3. Seller has a guaranteed $2.5 mil, worse case scenario. The $3 mil offer people either miss out, or get it while saving a half million dollars. Or, they bid on it themselves.

What if Judge or someone else hits 63 or more this upcoming season or the next.
With the all or nothing approach most players take today this will be surpassed, and maybe soon. They better sell that ball quickly. Last edited by Shoeless Moe; 11-18-2022 at 06:56 AM.

In all honesty, it is punching well above my weight to even think about a value. For a buyer 500k to 1 million seems fair for bragging rights. For the seller, I can only imagine greedy will make for a hungry puppy.
