Nothing on the bat or balls is even remotely close. Why would anyone spend a dime on that crap except as a fungo bat and batting practice balls?

Words fail me.

Did anyone laugh when they saw below Aaron's auto it says "705 HR"? Apparently he wasn't sure of how many hrs he hit.

I bought the bat awhile ago for like $1,000 a little while back I don't know what they go for now I just started the bid low thinking people would bid away I didn't know what price to put.ive always collected alot of the new stars so I don't know a whole lot about the old stars.ive had alot if this stuff for awhile and alot of stuff was handed down to me I'm selling alot of stuff because I've had some medical bills that came up for my daughter that I have to pay.

New message to: majhr616
Do me a favor? Look at the bat. Under Hank Aaron's signature it says 705 homeruns ? Aaron hit 755.

Why would someone buy this bat if it were a fake?

[Klrdds]

It is an expensive piece of wood for the fireplace.

Unfortunately, some people want to believe they got a deal, that they were "smart".

The greater fool theory is alive and well.

To the original poster, and I ask this without any malice, what was the motivation for your interest in this piece...was it

1) "That's something I'd like to have in my collection and the price is right?"

2) "Wow, that's going cheap, I could make a lot of money if it's real?"

Technically Aaron had to hit #705 before he ever got to 755.

Perhaps he was very fond of #705??

Perhaps he had a "thing" for first inning three run homers??

Being the Christmas season might have been a wife buying her husband a Christmas present thinking she got a good deal on it and surprising her spouse on what she won. Yikes. If that's case, which it probably isn't, hopefully the guy knows his stuff and gets his money back. Again Yikes

The number under Ted Williams name doesn't make sense either. It's pretty much illegible. So it's maybe ?07, or no7, or something else. Either way I can't think of any connection to Williams with that number.

I think it is a .407.
I believe our signer gave Ted an extra hit in 1941 to raise his average from .406 to .407.

[mighty bombjack]

Eddie Murray also misspelled his name (left out the a).

What a joke

I should have a buck for every ebay crooked seller who is selling to pay medical bills for his daughter/mother/wife/son/father/in-law/friend/enemy/.

[sycks22]

I'm pretty sure that's the only Eddie Mathews forgery in the market place. He signed everything put in front of him ala Bob Feller

[rjackson44]

it will never end,,,

[johnts1]

No. Not at all. Stumbled upon it and wanted to share.
