    I love to get a good deal on bats but...

    It makes it hard when people use the forum to jump on items only to immediately flip them for profit. I buy items occasionally that I can profit off of, but I put the money back into the hobby by using the profit to buy other items. The name should be changes to Collector to Dealer classifieds if this keeps up.

    This bat and at least 3 others from the post are now for sale on eBay with a minimum $75 dollar mark up.

    I see where you guys are coming from, and im not the seller of those bats but if you think about it if i was putting something up for sale on here and got what i asked for my item I would be happy to see someone else make a few bucks and be happy also, as long as the seller gets his asking price who cares if the buyer wants to use the bat as fire wood.

    You are absolutely right, but as a collector it is frustrating when you have a opportunity to get a bat for a reasonable price but it is snatched up immediately by someone who has no intentions of holding on to it.

    Good for Capital Investments jumping on a great deal at $425! America was built on capitalism and so long as it is done honestly then it works for everybody. MLB Holo'd and Josh buys all good stuff!!!!!!!!!

    If it is you then that takes a little bit of the sting out of it because I owe you big time, but capitalism always has a loser, and in this case I am that guy.
