    if you want sharpie, send one. most will sign baseballs with pen

    why do you want a sharpie on a baseball?

    I wouldn't send sharpies. they don't look as nice on baseballs and if you're ever looking to trade or sell them, most don't like sharpie autos. send a blue bic pen. it's cheaper for you and better for your auto.

    Sharpies are more likely to have the autograph bleed than a ballpoint pin. For the longterm looks of your autograph you really want a pin. Trust us that you would later be kicking yourself for having them done in sharpies!

    Totally agree. Sharpie + baseball = disaster.
