I emailed a seller about this Alvin harper jersey, which is over priced. I stated the Bucs wore orange jerseys 1 time in 1996 (against Arizona). Harper was injured and did not play in that game. I mentioned to him that I paid $325 for a 1995 Harper jersey this summer and offered him $250 for his issued Harper. He doesn't seem to thrilled about that. Below is a response from him....
Hello. By the mid 90’s, the Bucs rarely wore their creamsicle jerseys – maybe once a year, making them rare and highly desirable. Adding to that, Harper was a Premier Receiver and was only there 2 years. You paid $325 for your 95’, I have more than that into mine.
It’s obvious that we are far apart on value/price and we are not going to be able to make
a deal.
It’s very disrespectful to rip a seller’s auction by saying that the jersey is not game worn,
JUST team issued, and telling me what the “fair market value” is on MY jersey. It’s the height
of arrogance. I can easily rip your auctions. For example you were selling a Davin Joseph
Buc’s game worn jersey – starting bid $265. Really? Who the hell is Davin Joseph? By the
way the answer is nobody gives a crap! So your “fair market value” on a common jersey
of a nobody named Davin Joseph is AT LEAST $265, while your “fair market value” on a
1996 Alvin Harper creamsicle Game Jersey is $237.53. You are the last person that I
would ask for a “fair market value” on anything – you’re delusional. I never asked for
your opinion, next time keep your opinion to yourself.

Couple points I would like to make in regards to this
1) Davin Joseph did sell actually. Joseph was a 2 time pro bowler and rated one of the top 100 Bucccaneers of all time by Bucpower.com Also Nike Bucs jerseys sell well in general due to their rarity.
2) I stated a fact to this seller. There is no opinion regarding whether the jersey was worn. The fact he does not do that research is either disrespectful to buyers or if he did do that research and not state that in his listing, then it is misleading. it is either 1 or the other.
3) If I list something incorrectly, I will make that correction, instead of pointing fingers.
