Authentic Aramiths? Opinions

Do you think these are authentic Aramith Super Pro balls?
The good:
I would guess they are 5-8 years old and show a bit of yellowing
They have been played a decent amount and don't show typical damage that you'd see on cheap balls.
They all weigh 165-168 grams.
The numbers are smooth and look right to me. The black outlines are a bit fuzzy, and you can see that the black penetrates inside the translucent ball.
They feel/sound identical to another set I compared them against.
They play just fine

The bad:
The color of the 10 ball does not match the 2.
I've seen slight color variances before, but not this much.

Are there any TV or specialty sets that use a lighter blue for the 10 ball?

You can polish them up to almost new and the color match will be perfect then.

K2 lays out the perfect cleaning method in the Pool Ball Collecting thread. Just follow his instructions and they will look amazing when your done.
