Re: Ryan Howard World Series Bat on EBAY
Honestly, I would stay away from that bat if you're really looking for a Howard World Series bat. Howard used a Black Marucci bat during the world series last year. There have been quite a few Howard Diablo bats that have come up on ebay in the past year. All were that "Red" color, that I believe was banned by MLB. The seller is also selling Ryan Howard "World Series" batting gloves. Howard has had a contract exclusively with Adidas since at least 2008 so he only wears adidas batting gloves and cleats. He wore Under Armour gloves early in his career so those are not World Series batting gloves. Just my 2 cents though. Maybe others can chime in and confirm my thoughts. -
Re: Ryan Howard World Series Bat on EBAY
Just emailed the seller and told him that his bat and batting gloves were NOT world series stuff. Told him Howard has a contract with Adidas since the start of 2008. I received this great response from him "Just watched the home run derby on espn. Ryan was wearing under armour batting gloves and reebok cleats. So much for your info." I wouldn't buy anything this guy is selling based on that response.Comment

Re: Ryan Howard World Series Bat on EBAY
I sent the seller another email telling him nicely that these were not World Series items & also that Ryan Howard did not use Under Armour batting gloves and Reebok cleats during the HR. Derby last night & I've received yet another vulgar response. He said "IT's ok if you don't know your stuff just admit it and go away! You're one of those guys if I had a picture of Ryan handing them to me after a world series game you would say, "Ahhhh...You photo shopped the image!" Look asshole! You don't have to bid! I bought the items from a Phillies major league scout. I own over 300 major league game used jerseys and over 500 game used bats. I can tell you this....They are game used from the 2008 world series. However, if you can prove to me with real documentation that the items were not used during the world series I will change my description to just game used. Anything short of that I will be shoving the bat up your ass when it sells!"Comment

Re: Ryan Howard World Series Bat on EBAY
Cant you report him to ebay for the foul language? This prick needs to be slapped by someone.Comment

Re: Ryan Howard World Series Bat on EBAY
Actually he can be reported for noting "personal checks" in his auction. He is only allowed to accept Paypal or other merchant card services. The only way he can accept personal checks/money orders is if the buyer asks him prior to bidding. BTW, his payment instructions are a joke "...PAYMENT IS DUE WITHIN 24 HOURS OF BID ACCEPTANCE. NO EXCEPTIONS!!! IF YOU CAN PAY WITHIN 24 HOURS PLEASE DO NOT BID!!! "

Re: Ryan Howard World Series Bat on EBAY
I looked at a bunch of photos on Getty also after I posted the photos here all adidas.So I joined in and sent the seller a note providing all the information here was his response..
Ya! All those photos were probably taken at one game. I really have no way of proving he wore them in the World Series only what my friend told me. He's an advanced major league scout for the Phillies so he would know. Maybe I will relist them later as just game used and then maybe it won't be so baffling.

Re: Ryan Howard World Series Bat on EBAY
Maybe it's all in how this guy is approached. I sent him a polite message and he replied back with a polite response. It seems like a nice bat but I doubt it was used in the world series...maybe batting practice?Comment

Re: Ryan Howard World Series Bat on EBAY
Fastlane, I did send him a polite message first telling him that I didnt think they were world series game used. I told him why I thought this. (How Howard has a contract with Adidas etc). Then he sent me that smart ass response about howard wearing under armour batting gloves and reebok cleats in the derby last night. I basically told him that I know what I'm talking about and if he wants to screw people out of money then that's his problem. I could tell from his first reponse he knew darn well that these were not World Series items. I was just trying to let him know incase he bought them from someone maybe he could get his money back (if he bought them through ebay & paid paypal). after his responses though I'm done sending him proof.Comment

Re: Ryan Howard World Series Bat on EBAY
Thanks for the help.
When I first contacted the seller he said he had game used proof on Getty. However when I asked him for the image number he could not provide it.
I think he knows that it is not game used but he dosen't care.Comment

Re: Ryan Howard World Series Bat on EBAY
I know nothing about the bat and if it's authentic.I am only responding to your post.You told him,"if he wants to screw people out of money then it's his problem".And then you comment about his bad response to you.Are you surprised that he responded to you like that.I would love to read the emails you sent this person, as you only posted his responses.It's kind of like only hearing one side of the story.Because from what you said you said here,i'm not suprised about his response to you.i am not saying its right but i'm saying it sounds like you dished it out first to this person.Fastlane, I did send him a polite message first telling him that I didnt think they were world series game used.
