Just got a call from my buddy thats at Redsfest. He said that he went straight through the front doors and over to the game used area. By the time he got there, all the Votto bats were sold. There were a few Dunn bats. There were also a few Freel bats. I'm sure there were a bunch of other players but thats all I was asking about.

I heard a C. Patterson jersey signed was going for $75.... sadly I would have taken it.

Any Dunn jerseys or hats??

[chakes89]

Just got home and all I can say is that this was easily my worst Redsfest experience ever

I got in way too late because of traffic. I didn't even hit the main entrance doors until 4:30


Nothing but crap bats and overpriced jerseys

There were about 20-25 bats each of Paul Bako, Corey Patterson, Javier Valentin and Scott Hatterberg

The only Votto bats left were in multiple pieces or missing wood

No Bruce stuff at all


I am getting really tired of seeing scrub bats from 3 years ago as well

And once again some dealer got in early and bought up everything good.

He/She had a big stack of jerseys, like 4-5 Votto bats, 7-8 batting helmets.


In my opinion the whole trip was a giant waste of time and Im sorry that I went

Interesting story..Any idea if the 'dealer' someone from here, or someone that sells on ebay, etc.. ?

Couldn't tell ya

The Game Used selection from the RCF was a disappointment this year, worst I've seen in last several years. Surprisingly, I counted at least 8 Votto bats & nearly the same from Dunn (though his were beat up a little more, cracked, broken, etc. A friend of mine purchased 1 of each, the Dunn was signed). I heard of one person getting a Bruce, but didn't see it. Also saw a Votto helmet being sold. I was near the front of the line, one of the first to check out the gamers, went straight to the jerseys..There was a pile of jerseys (mostly $75), bats (including 2 Votto's) & several common helmets ($30 each) near the entrance but that person did not enter early, in fact entered after I did...From what I saw, had a helper & grabbed what they could, an attendant watched over it as they continued to shop, likely a dealer or ebayer, but can't be sure. My friend followed me by several minutes, walked over to the bat bin & picked out his Votto. I purchased 3 jerseys & 8 hats, 7 of which are the "Patriotic" red/white/blue style (only one's I saw available). We left around 630pm and there were still items available, nothing new had been put out. Along w/ jerseys, hats, helmets & bats, there were also pants & some catching gear. Will be glad to answer any questions others may have. Jay ldonalds@columbus.rr.com
