Game used Football question

[bryzzo2016]

Was wondering if this ball was legit.

There's a small "W" in the grain just to the left of the "Salute to Service" ribbon.
Is that a special marking Wilson only puts on game used footballs ?

All opinions welcomed.

There also appears to be a small "W" in the grain just to the left of the hand written 10 also.

This site is great, and just what it was made for.

To address the question on the stamping, the "W" is Wilson's trademark, stamped in the leather of their NFL on-field style balls. Since it's also on retail balls, the mark alone isn't an indicator of authenticity.

This guy is getting out of control again. He now has a patriots ball and packers ball up for over 1000 a piece hopefully nobody bites. Keep posting on this guy it makes me sick that he's out there.

Some poor guy just bought the patriots ball for 1500$. eBay is getting out of control and is gonna flood the market with this crap.

Worse thing eBay did was to remove buyer information. At least you used to be able to let people know they were getting screwed.

I've counted this guy has had 42 balls up in the last 3 months alone under this account for over 8000$+ when does it become a thing for the law to take care of. With how long he's been doing it he's gotta be up into 6 figures.
Sorry hate to keep posting on this guy but it's disgusting.

I agree, this guy needs to be taken down for a big fall.
