A decision has been made on where Aaron Judge's historic 62nd home run baseball is heading. After turning down a MASSIVE offer for the ball, Cory Youmans is putting that treasured ball he caught from the AL MVP up for auction with Goldin.
Cory Youmans caught the ball that New York Yankees star, Aaron Judge, hit for his American League record 62nd home run. He could have met Judge and exchanged the ball for memorabilia but did not want to make the decision on the spot. After all, there was a massive bounty on the ball.
ESPN states Youmans turned down an offer of 3 MILLION dollars already! Instead the ball will he heading to auction with Goldin. You can see the ball and auction details HERE. Bidding starts on November 29th with an opening bid of one million dollars.
The record amount paid for a baseball is 3.05 million for the baseball Mark McGwire hit for his 70th home run (an MLB record at the time).
Two questions for you!
1. Do you think this Aaron Judge 62nd home run ball will break the all-time record (3.05 million)?
2. Would YOU have given the ball back to Judge rather than auctioning it off?
There is no wrong answer! We have staff members here at Just Collect that would have given the ball back to Judge and others that are dreaming buying a 1952 Topps Mickey Mantle rookie card. Comment here on the blog or any of our social media pages:
If you have a historic baseball or piece of memorabilia, we are always buying! We recently purchased a baseball signed by Babe Ruth that belonged to his Yankees teammate.
We purchased the ball directly from the family of a New York Yankee. You can read about this rare baseball HERE.

We offer many ways to evaluate your cards other than using our website, too.
- Travel to us
If you can make the trip here like the son from my hometown did for this collection- we can make a deal at the office. We once met a father-son duo that drove eight hours from Virginia to meet us to sell a Michael Jordan rookie card stored in Tupperware since 1986 - great read here.
- Come to a convention
We keep a LIST of the card shows we'll be attending. Come stop by the Just Collect table and chat.
- Meet in-person
If you have a valuable collection and want us to come to you, we'll hop on the next plane out. We recently took a trip to California to purchase a collection that included three Jackie Robinson 1948 Leaf rookie cards that you can read about here.
- Meet in New York City

OUR BUYING PHILOSOPHY
We've run into a wide range of people and collections over the last 25 years. Although Just Collect is known for buying vintage sports cards and especially vintage baseball cards, we are also extremely interested in buying non-sports cards, too!
Every collection and every collector is different and we treat EVERY collection with the respect and attention that we show for our own collections. We understand that many have put their heart and souls into building their collections. So when you're ready to sell, we understand the feelings that you're going through and will work with you to help you reach a decision that is a WIN/WIN, because if you're not happy, we're not happy.
