Incoming Items from Shea

Barry,

I'm hoping they include the location of where the item was so that the one of kind based on location which was marketed to buyers is confirmed in the authenication.

The fact that some of my items did come with a sticker indicating location is a good sign.

We'll wait to see what the site will eventually reflect.

Thanks

Ckesten,

Please show your wife where I plan on permanently displaying my backstop panel. The first thing I thought about when I saw them was "headboard!"

It may help getting your seats into your house.

Hey guys,

2 Questions

Why are the Mets taking apart the seats just to put that back together again. In many pictures you see they are taking off the backs and piling them up.


Also, when will more items be added to mets.com

A point I'd like to make and I bet a lot of people agree with me is why are they stripping the paint off of the arms and repainting them for indoor use. I'd much rather them be real..the way they are.

Does anyone know if the seats will be able to sit up by itself or does it have to be nailed in somewhere? This may be a dumb question. I just want to know if it can just stand up by itself so it can be sit in.

thanks

I believe the seats you are seeing piled up are every 3rd seat. For every pair of seats the 3rd seat in the row has to be dismantled. They probably will use the seat backs or bottoms to sell autographed by players.


The first set of items end 10/31 on the Mets auction site. At the end of each auction period new items will be added up until the opening of the 2009 season.


If you brought the free standing orange seats they of course will stand by themselves. The blue, green, red seats which were attached to concrete will have bracketed stands attached so they will also be able to stand.

very knowledgable... I got the green seats... how do you think theyll look with the piece to have them stand up straight? Hope this doesn't make it a complete eye saw

Here's a site for a company who makes these type of brackets. The ones they are putting on the Shea seats MAY be similar. That's my guess.

I have a pair of Loge seats so we are both getting the seats with brackets.
