Value of Bonds Homerun 713 baseball???

[nick1980]

I know the person who has #713 HR Bonds baseball and he is willing to sell it to me. My question is how much do you guys think this is worth? It has the MLB hologram on it. (I haven't checked the number yet but will before purchasing) Thanks so much

The way things are going with him and his game used market, i would say not much. When MLB gets the balls to take his records away it will mean nothing. But thats my two cents.

So $700-800 sounds like it would be way to much to pay??
Thanks for the response

If the ball has a MLB #'d hologram that says it was the actual HR ball I would pay at least $1,500.

Andrew,
Can you either post or email me the hologram numbers of one of your homerun baseballs. I want to see how Mlb words it. Thanks

I must say I'm with Yanks, his "record" and frankly career, will always be tainted, so I wouldn't place a whole lot of value on one of his homerun balls. Ricardo

Each team does them differently as my Soriano doesn't have any extra info but for this significant Sheffield I thought this was cool.

I agree that with the tainted career and the economy the value isn't there, but I would buy it if it is MLB Authenticated and Nick's friend would sell it to me.

Thanks Andrew.

I was asking because on ebay there was a Bonds ball, and when you type in the hologram number it comes up saying(see below) and i never knew if it meant it was the ball hit for the homerun or a ball used in the game.

Here is one of my Barry Bonds balls from HR 700. that had the special dye on it and was hit foul and hologram'd. I think the HR 666 ball is the same thing.
