Yeah, It just sold for $250 BIN!!! I guess I will never get a Ted Williams Auto because I would never pay more than $150 for one.

i bought it I wouldn't normally pay that much, but I have never seen a red one in my life.

i would have paid more but the moron would not return my email! i asked for a scan of the back 5 min after it was on ebay.even gave him my home phone #. some are just stupid! just as well now.the spure of the moment to get a card you do not have.you do not think of what you are doing.now i am glad he did not get in contact with me! come to think of it ,it was prob singed after they got out the back door at a baseball game.i just still think it is not a ligit card with the red ink.knowing we have unsigned ones on this site with just the "B" on the back. what do you think DAN?

I have all four signed cards and I also have 3 of 4 signed but un numbered cards from the vault that they made for extras in case the real cards got messed up. I have never heard of a red card and suspect that it is not legit. I spoke to a person who flew to PR to have Juan sign the card. There was a problem in getting the signature on the card to stay. That is why they experimented with the black and blue ink. He described the problem and I communicated with him several times. That was at least ten years ago. I would be extremply surprised to find that this red card is the real deal. I do not believe the card in red is legit. But on the other hand, what do I know? I only have 538 cards.

I WOULD ALSO SAY IT IS NOT A PACK PULLED CARD!

[juanfan19]

well I have 3 of the 4 now, all 3 being different colors. The sig and numbers on the card look just like the others, if its a forgery its a darn good one. Plus why would someone forge Juan's sig? Most folks have no clue what these cards are worth.

And who would even have a "B" lettered card available to do so. If they were that smart (and lucky to have the card to forge), I would think they would forge it in black or blue.

Anyway it's interesting to say the least.

I don't think there is any question as to the authenticity of the signature, it looks genuine. Rob was intimating that someone may have had Juan sign the card after the fact.

Congrats,
