Aaron Judge record HR ball heading to auction after $3M offer declined

[BobbyFK]

I wonder if he did the right thing turning down the 3 million?
I don't forsee him getting much more then that at auction

Judge 62nd HR ball to auction; $3M offer denied

Aaron Judge's record-setting 62nd home run ball is headed to auction later this month, with the attorney for the Texas man who caught it telling ESPN he already turned down a $3 million offer for the keepsake.

me either

 

[sharpsquare]

me either

As u mentioned can he really expect to get much more at auction? Esp after figuring in fee's, time invested, etc.

I would have taken that 3M in a heartbeat and been smiling all the way to the bank

Greedy

He must be getting advice on this decision from someone, right?
I mean he couldn't possibly be an expert on this topic. Hopefully, he's not getting his advice from the internet.

Wow... Talked to his wife and his lawyer who also probably had no clue how this stuff sells.
What a mistake....

He got half of what he turned down. Ended up selling at auction for $1.5 million
