As title says. I really would love to get my hands on a 2009 GU bat for my son's Christmas present. Please let me know if you are selling any of Joe's bats. Thanks so much.

There is someone on craigslist trying to sell one. Says its from a grounds crew member given to the person as a gift after the season. Wont offer pictures though. And is looking for $900 pretty steep.

Let me know what you're willing to go on a Mauer bat.

Thanks.

as we all know, craigslist can be pretty shady. ive had pretty good luck so far (no bad deals out of maybe 6 or 7 total), but I've pretty much given up on checking CL just because I figure it was only a matter of time before my luck ended

Just picked up the one from Craigslist. Its shown in the November pickups thread if you want to see it. Probably not available yet.

In my opinion, the bat on Ebay is suspect. I don't believe Mauer has ever used Mota Stick that appears on the handle of this bat, and I also believe the 7 on the knob is too large and in the wrong writing. Just my opinion though,

Thanks Scott. However, that bat is not legit. It's been on ebay a few times now. MLB is right...Joe does not use Mota stick and when there is a "7" on Joe's bats, it's off to the side. Unfortunately, someone probably got burned. Thanks for the heads up though. Hopefully, I'll find one soon.

Yes, as a matter of fact, I am the high bidder. I was hoping no one would see it:D

Sorry, I was just trying to help you out. I wont be bidding on this one. I hope you win it.

No worries. Schulte (Ironclad) is running the auction. So, I am sure he's got the reserve at $1400+. I definitely can't afford to go that high. Thanks for looking out for one though.

Good luck on the '06. You better thank god for blessing me with one already, otherwise you would be fighting me for it :D

Hahaha...thanks brother. Yeah, I saw your website. Very impressive. Who knows, maybe I'll win Powerball this weekend and go nuts with an offer:D Man alive, I cannot figure out where the LEGIT 2009 Mauer's are. Hopefully, it doesn't turn out empty like my quest for a 2006 Morneau. Thanks again for all of the help everyone.
