Has anyone had experience with Zanebats from eBay? They have a ton of bats and I'm interested in a few but hardly any of them looked used.

I've dealt with him many times and have always had good experiences.

He's a friend of mine and has been in the business a long time. He knows his stuff.

While this bat is listed in the game used section, the listing does not say it is game used. I take the term game bat to mean game issued.

I have had only good experiences with Zane. I have felt his prices are a bit high in some cases, but have found him very knowledgeable and willing to negotiate.

Use of the search feature on GUU Forum reveals numerous positive comments on Zane. Here are a few threads:

I have dealt with Zane... All good. I find his list prices are often much higher than what I would expect, but usually he's willing to negotiate to a certain extent.

Not all of the bats he sells are used though, obviously do your homework like with any purchase.

The bat I'm looking at is a big papi as $800 for a thome with no markings seems way over priced.

It's game issued that's why there are no marks on bats!!!!!

What I find is that in his write ups if it says "excellent uncracked condition" that means its not used, only issued.

I've found most of his Star bats are unused and overpriced, JMO!:cool:

Bought a Jack Wilson gamer from him for a great price a few months ago. Willing to negotiate

Just bought 3 bats from him and while his prices are high if you make a reasonable offer he is sure to accept it or at least counter it.
