Re: RedsFest ????

I contacted BPH - no Adam Dunn anything. They never seem to have anything I am ever looking for...

Thats weird.

They have a game used bat on eBay.

Reds fans, I am drawing a blank. Just picked up a Red alternate, and wasn't this the year they wore them more often. Maybe for day games, not just Sunday games anymore?

Re: RedsFest ????

I thought the sleeved alternate jerseys they have been wearing since GABP opened up in 2003 were only worn in Sunday home games.

Re: RedsFest ????

Not sure if this was brought up yet, however the list of remaining jerseys from Redsfeset has been put into a spreadsheet & from what I believe, still for sale.

Re: RedsFest ????

Where can one obtain this spreadsheet?

Re: RedsFest ????

Just an FYI, that spread sheet really isn't supposed to go past the handful of people that it got mailed to.

Why?

Re: RedsFest ????

Why?

Because there would be a California Gold-like rush if everyone found out how cheaply they were selling Hatteberg, Valentin, and Narron jerseys.

Yes the Reds used the home Sunday red alternate for a bunch of Saturday home games as well this season. The first Saturday game was the one vs Red Sox in June and then they used it for quite a few more Saturday home games the rest of season. As well as all Sunday home games. The Cabrera I have shows really nice use. The only exception was July 4th weekend when Reds used the camo/military jersey on both the Saturday and Sunday games that weekend.

Re: RedsFest ????

I thought I remembered them being mixed in for more games this season than past. Good to know with matching up my jersey, thanks for the help.

Re: RedsFest ????

AWA85- I got the Dragons items from a collector who has a ton of Dragons players game used items. Unfortunately the Dragons NEVER sell game used items so I have no idea where Valaika's Dragons jerseys are. I even offered $500 to the team and yes they declined!

I got in touch with someone who handles the Dragons gear and he told me the the Dragons pretty much got everything on lockdown. He said even HE hasnt been able to get anything out the doors. So the only way the jerseys are in the hands of collectors are if you buy them from people who have won them in the raffle at the stadium. Can't imagine why the team wouldnt just wanna sell them, especially since people are offering big bucks for em

Re: RedsFest ????

There's a few teams that have this sort of policy. I think it's essentially a matter of ego or greed or both, or simply thinking they can get much more by selling raffle tickets. Either way, it's A ball, this shouldn't happen.

Re: RedsFest ????

The raffles are free

So they aren't making any money there.
