You're offering $100 for Ramirez game used hats with a COA?

I don't know about Hunter, but all of the Ramirez Red Sox game used hats that show any use, with a good COA, usually go for $250-350. You can find his Cleveland gamers for a lot less though.

I bought a Manny hat during the offseason last yr from ASI on ebay for 188 dollars plus shipping signed and it shows nice use. I thought that was a good deal.Wait for the right deal Kyle it will fall in your lap maybe.Good luck Geoff

I have bought 4 Ramirez Sox gamers before and the problem with most ASI/ESM Ramirez hats is that they ususally show no use whatsoever. The crown of the hat shows no sweat...they're still starchy like you would find when they are brand new. Most look like he wore them for a inning at most, signed it, and sent it off for ASI or ESM to slap a sticker on it. You have to be patient to find one that shows any use. Good luck!

I just saw the one ASI listed. It's the first one I've seen listed by them in about 3 months. LMK what you guys think about this one. Do you think it's really worth spending $200 on?:

Manny wears a do-rag underneath his hat to protect his precious dreads (:rolleyes:) so can't that in someway stop sweat stains from appearing?

Manny's hats should show more wear regardless of a do-rag. The starched crease on the back of the hat you posted is proof that it was not worn very much. Anyone who has worn one of those New Era hats for a week or two knows that the factory starch wears off. I have a Red Sox Manny hat where the crown has shrunk down and there are some sweat stains, so they do exist. $200 isn't bad, but I wouldn't pay much more than that since it obviously wasn't worn that much. Good luck!

I think the $200 is a nice price on that Manny cap. Looks like it shows a little bit of use and the sig is big.

ASI told me that he probably wore this hat for about 10 games or so

Like I said, the hat doesn't show much use because the factory creases/fold marks are still in the hat. If you're okay with that, $200 isn't a bad price. You would typically have to pay a little more for a hat that shows good use.

I'm moving the offer up on the Manny hat to $175
