Teams that are overpriced. Just the ones that charge you money. lol lol
I think it is a no Brainer Yankees & Mets.
Yankee do it because they know somewhere out there they will get it.
Mets do it for what, I have no idea. -

On the football side of things, the Bears, Patriots, and Chargers all seem to be overpriced. Probably because they are hard to obtain and really only sourced through 2 companies.
On the cheaper side, Dallas, Seattle, Raiders.... seem to be the lowest. I'm sure because they are readily available and fairly easy to obtain.Comment

I think it has to be the BlueJays.
Atleast the Yankees have history behind their jerseys.
But for a team like the BlueJays that havent won anything in years
why would anyone pay those prices.Comment

I agree the Blue Jays are overpriced.
As for why anyone would pay those prices, even though they haven't won anything in years - I pay them because I collect game used memorabilia, and the Jays are my favourite team. I have to be more selective in what I buy because of the prices, but I'd rather have a couple of overpriced pieces that mean something to me, and that I really enjoy, than a larger collection of items from other teams that I don't follow.

On MLB auctions I have seen fair prices for the Mets jerseys. Some things they are a little overpriced for, but currently their prices have gone down on a number of things. There is no reason why they should be overpriced in the first place because in their franchise and recent history have not done anything unlike the Yankees and Red Sox.Comment

Re: which teams are overpriced for their items?
One of my areas of collecting are minor league uniforms. I will say that many of those items are extremely overpriced considering their potential resale value. I've talked to many of the teams, and understand that just to replace the uniforms costs $150 or more. But to think that a common player on a small market team will bring anywhere near that is crazy. Even if the guys become a major league player or even a major league superstar, it is tough to get anywhere in the $250-500 range for a minor league jersey. Just my 2cents."We need rebirth of the American tradition of leadership ... in private life as well." "'Trust me' government asks that we concentrate our hopes and dreams on one man; that we trust him to do what's best for us. My view of government places trust not in one person or one party, but in those values that transcend persons and parties. The trust is where it belongs--in the people." - Ronald Reagan"
