[jobathenut]

2000mvpfan-You got that giambi yankees bat for $99-WOW! Where did you get that,and do they have anymore.Like i said,i am not adding to my collection,as i am trying to sell it.But i would'nt be able to pass up on that.

Aaron-
Thanks,man.The seller of that jersey had it for $499 a month ago-when G got released,he raised it to $599 or best offer.I sent him a BO of $400 and almost fell off my chair when he accepted it!That jersey went for $1880 in the 2007 Robert Edwards auction!Only thing I gotta get straightened out is that the MLB holo has it listed as being used at home against the Orioles..duh..its grey,not pinstriped.
Joba-
Just keep looking man,there's deals to be had-that bat only cost $99.The market for Giambi stuff is at the lowest I've seen it since 2005 so its a GREAT time to be taking advantage of people's disinterest in his gear..

Take care fellas-hope to be posting some more stuff soon,I got a few more things I'm looking at...

Giambi's coming back with the Rockies!!! Thats a huge suprise

Actually this was know about a week ago... BMH let the cat out of the bag when he posted on another thread that Schultzie (Keith Schultz - Rockies Equipment Guy) had called him and he needed to get busy making some Giambi bats!!!

Can't wait for Sept 1st!!!

Those seam marks on the black C243 look awfully large for MLB baseballs.

They look like softball sized seams.

David-
that just attests to how hard Giambi hits the ball..LOL..seriously,though,after your post I actually took a couple MLB balls to them and they lined up fine..I think it's just the photo.

Good looking out though...

Thanks,
Joe

Or maybe the Shea stadium wrecking bat on ebay hit it

Hello all, I have a Jason Giambi Home Run ball from 4-5-98. It's from the Durwood Merrill collection, and comes with his LOA. I've found that Merrill's stuff is good, but he gets fuzzy on the details. This Budig ball is listed as HR #4 from that season, but it's actually his 1st homer of the year. Yes, Merrill did ump that day. Here's the retrosheet link: http://www.retrosheet.org/boxesetc/1...050OAK1998.htm

If anyone wants it, email me for pics.
