Help with David Ortiz Twins Jersey

[ArthurO]

Greetings,

I just purchased a 2001 David Ortiz Twins Alternate Jersey.

It looks right except: The front number is white and not red like
others I have seen. This has the American Flag Sewn over the
MLB patch on the back of the neck (POST 9/11?) all the patches
look correct numers and name plate appear to be sewn on properly
no evidence of tampering or removed, altered etc.

Another thing I noticed is the size 48, (I've always heard to never
go by the size because they often vary) no extra length or sleeve
100% Polyester tag and "tapered Body" tag as well (Which doesn't
make sense to me)

ANY HELP IS GREATLY APPRECIATED...

I WOULD LIKE TO ACT FAST in requesting my refund (just wanted
to make sure there was no variation of the Twinkies alternate jerseys)

Thank you in advance!

You should post some pics, including a shot of the tagging. Most fake Twins jerseys can be spotted by incorrect tagging.

The shirt you have is a complete train wreck!

TAGGING: The large Russell tag appears to have been lifted on the bottom. Likewise, the year tag is totally incorrect for a 2001 Russell jersey. There should be a strip tag with year/uniform #/set.

#'s: The front 27 has the colors reversed

N.O.B.: The letetrs are not the correct style, especially the Z

This shirt below was offered in an AMI auction and also included a team LOA. Note the differences in tagging, N.O.B. and front #'s.

I'd immediately file a dispute with PayPal, contact the Ebay seller and seek a refund. Likewise, you may want to advise the seller to make friends with new team trainers!

2001 David Ortiz Twins Game Used Alternate Jersey.

One of the Red Sox most important players. The man who leads with his bat and in the club house, David Ortiz, wore this sweet Minnesota Twins alternate jersey during the 2001 season. David put nice use on this size 52 Russell Athletic shirt, complete with factory embroidered 100th A.L. and classic Twins patches. No 9/11 flag exists, as Ortiz wore jersey before September 11th. Jersey has Velcro fastner between button two and three and an added 2" length as noted on flap tag, in addition to 3" extra sleeve length. Comes with Twins paperwork.

when you file a dispute with PayPal, what would the reason be under? the buyer should have done his research before bidding and winning the jersey.

Total mess of a jersey....beyond what has already been stated, I doubt Ortiz ever fit into a size 48! Also tapered usually refers to being tapered in, not out. Good luck with the appeal and getting your money back.

For what it is worth I sent the seller a message via ebay that his jersey was a turd and laid out the reason's why. This was done with 6 days left on the auction.
