[lund6771]

went to the National last night and it's not that good...at least for game used stuff

Game Used Universe's booth has the best stuff if you like football

The Cowboys and Redskins stuff is absolutely incredible!!!!!

I spent some time talking with Chris and Rob yesterday and it was so refreshing talking with such class acts

keep up the great work guys!!!!!

Lund,

Can you tell me if there were any older Oakland A's uniforms '68 to '76?? I was going to make the four hour trip on Friday morning, but if the game used material is weak, I will just stay home until next year when it is back in Cleveland.

Thanks for the info,

Mark

Hi Mark...I actually came home this evening, and I can't recall if there were any A's flannels...sorry

this will be the last National that I go to, unless it's in LA or Vegas...it's not like the old days when there was a lot of great stuff for sale..now there's a handfull of guys just showing what's in their next auction

What kind of Cowboys stuff did they have? I was talking to Chris through e-mail about Eddie George items, but he stopped replying. Thanks.

I didn't see anything from Eddie George...I think they were all from last season, but don't qoute me on that...all unwashed with great use

I can tell ya one thing...when you see these shirts they are awesome...then go to a ot of other tables, the other jerseys don't compare wear wise

Barry Meisel talked about this in a post many months ago when he got a lot of Eagles items...(I think it was the Eagles)...Anyways when you look at them there is 100% no question when seeing the use..you can't manuacture wear like this...and most of these were only worn for one game...I looked at many older jersey from the 80's, when they were worn for many more games, and there wasn't 1/2 the wear...that throws up red flags immediately and shows how rare the old good stuff really is

For all newer football collectors, I would highly suggest buying one of these jerseys...Not just because of how nice they are, but more for training your eye into knowing what a REAL jersey should look like...(they have lots of affordable commons)...It might save you thousands of dollars and many head aches down the road

I met with friends Rob Steinmetz and Erik Bakalar Wed night, did the National Thursday as I usually do. Fewer GU dealers every year, very weak. Alot of cards. If it were not for closing out a deal, seeing friends, I'd have viewed the trip as a waste of time. When all the guys I usually talk to were occupied Thursday night, I got in my truck and made the 350 mile trip home...

I've got to believe sales of autograph tickets are way down at the National because of the economy.

There's lots of deals to be had if you have money to spend in this economy.

I was there early Thursday and many people were livid regarding the web posted $15 admission and actual cost at show of $18, plus $11 to park. $30 spent before you walk in the door, plus hotel and gas for most. Ouch.
