First, let me start by saying I know and understand there is a "discuss this lot" option on each lot which takes you to the threads designed to discuss each lot individually......but I have a general comment on three different, but similar, jerseys, so instead of hitting them separately, I hope it's ok I am placing the comments here in this manner.
It is an impressive auction, and I certainly don't want to take away from the hard work and professional presentation of the lots and the pictures......all done very well, congrats to the GUU team.
That said, I am deeply concerned with three items from what is largely accepted as a "sound source" of game used Dodger equipment.
The lots I will refer to, the Nomar Garciaparra home Dodger Jersey, the Takashi Saito home Dodger jersey, and the David Wells road Dodgers jersey, all claim to be game used and have stickers by "Steiner". They are lots #46, 48, and 61, respectively. They are all suposedly from 2007, and this is the only year of Dodger jerseys I see this issue with. Others offered in the auction are from 2008 and are not included in this discussion.
Besides some "issues" I would feel free to discuss, there is one similar and overwhelming problem I see with these three jerseys that I would like to ask the fine members about who have Dodger jersey experience and knowledge.
If you look at all three jerseys on the front, you can see the stitch lines just under the second "d" on the home Dodgers, and the "n" of "Angeles" on the road jerseys, which are what I believe to be for the "velcro" patches that are stiched onto the jerseys.
First off, could anyone from GUU admin please verify this is what I am seeing? DO THESE JERSEYS have velcro patches stitched into the front center of the button area behind the team identifiers?
If so, it is my understanding that the Dodgers have never worn a gamer that has included "velcro" stitched into the jersey. These are the kind of jerseys they sell in the team stores on the premises.
