You get what you pay for

One of the most prized signatures in the hobby a Babe Ruth single signed baseball in general is worth about $6,000.-$10,000. Value may vary based on condition, and the type of authenticity that accompanies the signature.

To buy a cheap babe Ruth baseball it would most likey be in very bad condition, and or not authenticated. If the baseball is not authenticated, an too cheap you could be buying a fake. You get what you pay for.
