Here is something interesting I found, I am not saying either one is fake I am just saying its a sure quinky dink they are soooooo similar.

These are from 2 different sellers on Ebay.

Funny how both are Red Louisville Sluggers, both are signed in Gold Sharpie, 1 seller is from New York - the other from the east Coast (Duhhh New York), both have similar stories how they got the bat, and both joined ebay around the same time.

Re: Both Are Jose Reyes Game Used Bats?????

Seems like the same guy obtained a lot of cracked stock bats cheap and then took a few to Jose Reyes for signatures. Both signatures are different, but bats are remarkably the same, possibly from the same batch. Only thing that appears to be phony here at a glance are the stories behind the bats.

On a similar note, I have no idea why someone would want this item in the first place. If they want to display a signature piece of Reyes, why not a clean signature model? I don't get the whole concept behind a cracked spring training bat used by some other player. Makes for quite the ridiculous explanation when you show it off...
