Cy Young ball on Auction Kings

[vintagerookies51]

Anyone else see the Cy Young signed baseball on the show Auction Kings? I think it went for $4,100. I don't know much about autographs... is that a steal?

I saw the episode...if real that was a pretty nice ball.

I just realized that night that the Young ball is in Legendary's auction ending in a couple days. Last time I checked it's at $3,750. Kinda funny.

And the one in the Hunt Auctions this weekend went for $45,000

Where did one sell for $45,000, I see $25,000. But it's nicer and on a American league ball.

I think the Cy Young ball on Auction Kings is the same one in the current Legendary Auction. I'm not positive, but I saw the episode, and the Legendary auction ball looks the same.

Yup. Same ball, now with PSA/DNA COA. Current bid $4,250.

So much for the Auction Kings buyer being thrilled with his treasure. I guess there are more flippers than not these days.

He didn't look thrilled to me...he actually kind of looked sick when he won it.

Funny... I said the same thing to my wife as we watched. LOL "Why are they manhandling and touching that ball all over the surface?!" They handled it with absolutely no care.
