Any idea how far back they go with their jerseys? Anything from the mid 90s?

[skyking26]

I think it is mostly new stuff. They started the program last year with success ran by one of the nicest guys you'd find and very knowledgeable. Then it was announced months ago that the tigers would abandon a successful program which was no surprise - now this announcement that it is back on with another man running it? Who knows....

I asked Marc for a list of GU jerseys in inventory. He was very prompt with his reply. I was sad to see, though, that he has nothing earlier than 2007 in inventory.
He's doing a great job of keeping people informed when he gets new stuff. If you're on his mailing list, you're going to be impressed.
Now, if he could just find the older jerseys...:D

I would love to find a '98 of Billy Ripken

Wow, Larry, you're not kidding! Marc is really fast! I e-mailed him last night @ 10:00pm and had a response with Excel sheets @ 9:00am the next morning.

Thanks for the heads-up, man!

Interesting enough they have 90's tigers jerseys on auction

[skyking26]

Things are so bad in Detroit right now that I was actually contacted yesterday about buying bases and baseballs from the game in which Manny hit a HR!!! Pretty sad when your team (Det) is playing so poorly that the Tigers are contacting to sell items associated with another team!!! How sad is this?

Is the auction ont he Tigers website? or elsewhere? Also, anything from 2001-2006?

[pietraynor]

I believe the auction items being referred to are listed on MLB.com. Sev. diff. gamers from the past decade including Negro Leagues, visiting team jerseys, etc. Also, though I'm not really a Tigers fan, I am on the email list for gamers & I'm just glad they are offering anything game used as opposed to scrapping the entire idea. In fact, I wish every team was as active as the Tigers as far as game used/worn. More are catching on. Jay

The Older jerseys,balls,bats etc. that are on the Tigers website with the Tiger Logo ICON, are items given directly to The Detroit Tigers Foundation by the Clubhouse.

Has anyone bought any Tigers game used stuff yet?

Items seem a little pricey but Marc Himelstein is great about sending out info about available items.

Have not bought anything. Much of the items available are GU baseballs from games at $35 each and bases from games that the opponent did something memorable...

[GoTigers]

I bought a Cabrera bat last week... I'll post when it comes in.. Marc has been awsome.

[johnr1965]

Just bought the Bautista Jersey here.......Marc was great over the phone! Cant wait till it arrives.

[TigerSteve]

Thought you Tiger fans would like this one. I got the bat Polanco broke to win the game with a walk-off hit against Boston on 5-7. Just got it signed and inscribed today. Marc is a pleasure to deal with. Also, if anyone could help me with any photos from that game I would really appreciate it. There is nothing on Getty which I find weird considering we were playing Boston.

thanks for any help,

Steve,

That is awesome... even if I am a Boston fan. Any way I could find out what that cost?

$300. Thank you government stimulus check. I used to think that was waaay to much money to spend on one thing. Considering it's not exactly easy to know exactly when a bat was used, I thought it was worth it. Plus it's not too often you find a broken bat, from a walk-off hit, from your favorite player.

That is for sure! Did you have him sign the inscription or was that done for you?

[TigerSteve]

I just had the bat signed at a local signing.

Steve: where are you in MI? I am in Marysville near Port Huron. I collect 68 and 84 Tiger gamers. LMK if you ever have anything available...

[jppopma]

I was at a few Tigers games this weekend and saw that they had a bunch of jerseys marked down with 25% off. I didn't see any big names and most of them were from 2007 and 2007 ST. They may be willing to deal on some of these by e-mail if you mention it to him. Best of luck!

[Master Shake]

Steve,

What's your email? I screen captured a couple of shots of him using that bat so you can use them as a photo reference.
