Not sure how or why you’d turn down $3m thinking the AL HR record ball would somehow fetch more than that.
That information came from the guy's attorney in the lead up to the auction. I think there's a pretty good chance that there was no such offer and they were trying to drive up the auction price expectation for any potential suitors.

You definitely want to strike while the iron is hot with something like that. At the end of the day, it's a ball from the 7th best HR season.
