The new Soccer ball World cup 2010 is really wonderful and I invite you to visit my page for more information: http://www.squidoo.com/world-cup-soccer-ball-2010.
How much will the 2010 World Cup ball cost in 30 years?
I currently work at a soccer store and of course I'm crazy for the sport. The Jabulani World Cup ball is priced at the retail price of $150, but what makes it all better is the fact that I get a 30% discount. If I purchase the regular ball or the special edition golden ball which they'll be only using in the final (both cost the same), is it really worth purchasing it if I plan on never kicking it? I just think it would be a great memory to have down the years, adding on to my classic authentic shirts, some which are assigned by the players themselves. I'm currently 21 and soccer is part of my everyday life since I can remember....
i think it will be about 500 but it depends on where you sell it. i recommend to sell it in the place where the winners are from
