I know we have discussed MLB authentication and how slowly they put items in the database. But I was just checking a hologram on a ball I am bidding on from Ebay and it was signed LAST WEEK at Fan Fest! Not all the names are in yet, it seems to be hit and miss on who signed the item, but the hologram numbers are showing up as being in the database.
Maybe this is because MLB had preloaded some of the numbers? I know the guy who authenticated my ball had a roll of holograms and some sort of checklist on paper he was using.
Either way, I'm impressed with how fast the items are appearing in the database compared with the past. Maybe MLB has heard enough compaints about how it was run and has finally streamlined things so that they will appear in a fairly reasonable time.
