Forum Members,
This post is in reference to eBay item 220088783416. I have received at least a dozen emails about this jersey since it showed up on eBay for the second time several days ago. Simply stated, the tagging on this jersey is incorrect for a 2004 Maddux jersey. Legitimate 2004 Maddux jerseys have his uniform number included on the strip tag in the collar. The style tagging on this jersey is found on jerseys worn by late season call ups and/or players acquired during a midseason trade. Maddux was signed by the Cubs prior to the start of the 2004 season. It is also my understanding that the interior wash tag is missing from this jersey, although that is not disclosed in the auction listing. I emailed this seller with this exact information the first time the jersey was listed. The jersey was pulled at that time, and has now been relisted. I make this post with the hope that some unsuspecting collector won't spend his/her hard-earned money on this item.
Happy Collecting,
