How "game used" do you like your bats?

[frikativ54]

An interesting question I'd like to post to the boards. Do you still want a game used bat if it was not used for a hit?

For instance, in recent memory I have had the chance to purchase both a Troy Tulowitzki game used bat and a Carlos Gonzalez. In both cases, Tulowitzki went 0-5 and Carlos Gonzalez went 0-7 on the given day the bats were said to have been used. Naturally, I don't want the bat.

Does this matter to you?

If a pounded bat were not authenticated for a hit, it might take down the value for me. But not by much, if it could be conclusively matched to other games. I'm not big on bats unless they are pounded with use, and if that's the case, it's likely the player got a hit with the bat. The biggest thing with bats for me is the use. And if it barely had any, I would not want it.
