Help with AROD jersey

[schubert1970]

I don't know much about this dealer, but would really like any input you might have about this Game Used AROD jersey. I see the authentication from Global and PSA, AROD has a great signature, but there is no letter of auth stating "game used" Just wanted to know if anyone has an opinion about this jersey. Thanks in advance!

You should be able to go to psa/dna website and verify that is is game used as psa says. global is gai and was the seller of arod stuff when he was playing for texas. looks good to me. a hr jersey to boot. says game used on the jersey as he normally inscribes "game used" on the item such as a jersey. ask a closeup of the documents that you can barely see in the photo. if its a hr jersey i want the documentation and they should willingly provide it at that price for all potential buyers. i assume both places psa and global will mention that its a hr jersey.

someone here will give the psa/dna link or just google it.

his career HR 194 on 4/19/01. this should get you started.

[joelsabi]

my spreadsheet says its was against oak at home so this should be a home jersey. im in a rush so verify that too.

[schubert1970]

joelsabi - what do you mean by documentation? Is the PSA and GAI good enough?

[AROD313]

Anyone find a photo of Arod in this jersey on 4/19/2001. Or at least if the rangers even wore the blue Alt jersey that day. Should be a good challange because I've looked everywhere and can't find a thing. I purchased a 2002 HR number 5 Arod jersey back in 2002 from ASI. It was a home white jersey signed inscribed and the whole 9 yards. Come to find out he was wearing a blue alt jersey just like this one when he hit number 5 in 2002.

you want some signed documents from the seller saying that it is what it is -- should mention it's a home jersey, hr jersey, date of homerun. that should be on the document that you want to request a readable copy from the seller. you also want to verify the info on their website. the info should mesh together.

based on AROD313 (http://www.gameuseduniverse.com/vb_forum/member.php?u=2080)'s experience I want a photomatch of the jersey on that day. make sure the team wore alternate home jerseys on that day.

you gotta do your homework. good luck.

I justed want to thank everyone for helping me out on my purchase of an AROD game used jersey. I did more research from prior posts about the Rangers jersey's from 2001 - 2004 and came to my own conclusions.

Here is a link of what I purchased. I also spoke with Barry today and he was able to validate my purchase. I know some of you think I may have paid too much, but I feel comfortable with my decision and won't ever need to wonder if this is the real deal.

I came close to making a few huge $$$ mistakes till I came across this forum. When you do a search, there is a ton of great advice in here!

Can anyone find a photo of Alex Rodriguez wearing this jersey on 4/19/2001. I have at least confirmed that the Rangers were indeed wearing the Blue ALt jersey's that day but have not been able to find a photo of Arod. Anyone have any ideas where to look.

Unfortunately, the PSA/DNA and GAI authentications are for the autograph only, not the "game use".

[David]

There's a third sticker on the number-- ASI or ARod's?

[AROD313]

I contacted the seller and the third hologram is from TJ's Collectibles LLC who ever the heck that is?

Did you buy the jersey? It's been on ebay a few times and now it's been bought....

Regards,
Dave

Ya I bought it! This is the first time I saw it on eBay! I figure 3k for a HR jersey isn't too bad of a price! I'm going to send it into MEARS and see what they come up with! It's a gamble but when unsigned Texas road jersey's are going for over 3K on grey flannel I figured why not! Good but or bad buy what do you think?

TJ Collectibles a sports memorabilia company owned by TJ Kaye who is listed as an autograph expert for PSA/DNA (Evidently a Mickey Mantle autograph expert). His company has done lots of autograph signings and shows and evidently specializes in sports championship rings.

After reading the habits of Alex/ASI and other stuff from numerous threads in this forum. If it wasn't varified by Barry and his company or in his database, I wasn't going to bother. The one I purchased from CSI just gave me more confidence and I learned a lot from Barry as to how the Jerseys are distributed.
