This jersey was not worn by Rickey, I assure you. Rickey did not wear size 46 with the Mets. Also, see that the size tag is cut. This is clearly an extra that likely never made it to the team. Most likely, it is just a leftover from the manufacturer. I have to question the signature as well as Rickey is incredibly particular about what jerseys he signs (unless it was a leftover that someone with the team asked him to sign).

Just an FYI.

This sellers eploits have been discussed on this forum before (they skirt the issue by stating "Game Issued"). What surprises me is that this Henderson jersey is #24 (isn't that a retired number by the Mets...?)

Not even close...

Yeah, this seller's exploits have been discussed here before. Definitely not even team issued. 24 is not a retired number with the Mets (14,37,41,42 for JR), but this jersey is still ridiculous.

Bill,

Is this the same person as shandrs (or is it shsandrs)?

Also, if 24 was retired by the Mets, then it was after Rickey left for the Mariners, part of the way through the 2000 season as Rickey did wear 24 for the Mets (he wore his original 35 with the Mariners, back to 24 with the Padres, then 35 again with the Bosox (after wearing 12 very briefly), 24 with Newark, and wore 25 with the Dodgers in 2003 for the first time ever).

Reid:

Yes, same seller (multiple ID's). I would have thought that the Mets would have retired #24 (Willie Mays).

Bill, Howard, Chris, and others...

For my records, I would like to know all of this seller's userids. So far, I have bagwagzip and shsandrs. Please let me know of any others. I believe I have seen other sellers with similar listings (game/team and used/issued lingo) with the same auction format, color schemes, photo style, etc., so please let me know of others. Thanks,

Reid

Third Id

This seller has three ID's I know of. The two previously mentioned, the third being "autographnation". Note the same auction layout, as well as the similar items, including Ravens tickets and questionable jerseys. Also, I personally have dealt with all three ID's and all of the money orders were made out to the same person, in the same town, but sent to different PO Boxes.

NOT game used

Sorry to respond late to this thread. As mentioned earlier I e-mailed this seller and he responded by telling me they are not game used but game issued. He has over 20 of these Mets uniforms(as he told me) and as I warned last month,they will be flooding the e-bay market carrying the "Game used/game issued" banner.

Is ch3333 the same person, too? Check out this Murphy jersey.

Reid: I don't think so since shsandrs is from the Baltimore area. The other eBay ID's (that haven't been disclosed) they have used in the past have been NARU'd.
