    First paragraph says it was used during the game. Not his 500th HR ball.

    can you tell me if you ask him questions and what is response on the certificate date. kinda puts suspicion on his other baseballs and his documentation. who is to say he can take any ball and match it to a significant miletstone date of a player.

    I'd have to say he is a psychic who guessed the HR 4 days in advance but got the team wrong? That is the thing with this psychic biz, it is not an exact science. Psychic's are used to assist police in criminal matters as best they can, and here the guy is a tad off...

    maybe its a honest mistake so i wanted to see if anyone followed up and confronted him with this fact. this dude has sold some ball great balls for a lot of cash in the past. i would ive him the benefit of the doubt if he could explain the mistake.

    if you look at the photos of the listing you can see that he had other items like a ticket and maybe a SGA of 500 thome similar to what arod did the game after the fact

    Re: Whats wrong with this picture?

    I am psychic , thats why I was sitting in that section to begin with.

    Id like to blame my wife for making the mistake while posting this .
    I have ticket stubs to 499 ( they are in the photo ) that were being posted and sitting with the 500 items the time.

    Unfortunetly , I am divorced , so I can only blame myslef.
    Baseball or me she said......YEAH RIGHT !!!!!!

    So I picked up the three stubs that were together and the top one was
    Sep 12th. ( I also had the stub listed incorrectly too ! )

    An ebayer emailed me soon after I listed this so I made the changes to reflect the facts .

    Thanks for being on top of things and thanks for the chance to explain it.

    Now someone tell Dave Mediema to relax and stop emailing me

    in this hobby EVERYTHING IS SUSPICIOUS to me , thats why this forum is great.

    If the ebayer had not taken the time to correct the mistake, and if someone doesnt question something that doesnt look right , it would
    still be listed incorrectly. I tell everyone who questions any item of mine ,
    if you dont believe me 100 % then please dont bid or buy it .

    THANKS AGAIN
