    game used items

    Maybe you guys don't want to give away secrets. I'm new to collecting game used items and wondering how do you guys get some of these items. I know there's ebay and steiner but there most be other outlets you use. If you mind helping out its great if not its understandable.

      There is also a thread that has direct contact numbers of the individuals in charge of game used items for each team. Contact them and ask to be put on their email list.

        Eric - in addition to TNT's list (which is very good), I would add that MeiGray is terrific for hockey and basketball. Upper Deck gets good items here and there, too (though not as much in game used as some other places). Ball Park Heroes is also excellent. The best thing you can do is be a part of GUU and get to know folks ... especially the members who have collecting interests that are similar to yours. I am periodically offered terrific items by GUU members who know me and understand the items I'm pursuing.
        Always looking for top NBA game worn items of superstar and Hall-of-Fame-caliber players (especially Kobe, LeBron, MJ, Curry and Durant). Also looking for game worn items of all players from special events (e.g., All Star Game, NBA Finals, milestone games, etc.). Please contact me at gameusedequip2@hotmail.com. Thank you.

            Surprised nobody thought of adding this (myself included)... whereas some teams have a marketing company for their game used (i.e. Steiner markets for the New York Yankees, Boston Red Sox and L.A. Dodgers, etc.), a great number of teams sell their own game used equipment either through a distribution arm or on their own websites. Teams like the Mets and Tigers have a game used / authentics manager who interface directly with the public on the sale of game used items. It is also useful to find out if your team(s) sell to the public directly and get yourself on their distribution lists.
