Re: Grey Flannel Basketball HOF Auction
Personally, I am just going to sit back and watch the bidding in this auction.....we ARE talking about Grey Flannel you know and we may see some very awesome results, even record breaking for that matter. The May auction was something spectacular to say the least.

The May was something to say the least. I managed to but the Rudy Gay, Noah, Juwan Howard, and G. Wallace. I have my eye on a few items, but not the high end ones. i.e. Micheal Jordan rookie uniformComment

Re: Grey Flannel Basketball HOF Auction
Well, the Mets script just doesn't look the same...the M looks thicker on the Grey Flannel...also look at the space between the t and the s...on the Grey flannel it makes a v-shape and on the Keith photo, it makes much more of a a u-shape. The placement of the 17 is very different...of course Keith could have had more than one jersey that year, but it is just so different. On the Grey Flannel, half of the 7 is past the s...on the Keith, it is almost all under the s.
The nameplate color looks off and the patch on the Grey Flannel doesn't seem like the authentic patch either...very poor quality and no TH after the 25.Comment

Re: Grey Flannel Basketball HOF Auction
You are smart to be skeptical, but you seem to be more skeptical of me than the other guys. I really wouldn't waste my time doing these posts if I wasn't pretty knowledgeable about Met uniforms. I guess I need to show a picture from a game...though I seriously doubt Keith and Mookie (who also appeared in that video) would be wearing replica full road jerseys on Sesame Street.
I found this one...he has the 86 sleeve patch...numbers are thinner than the auctioned jersey, further apart and more to the left...more like the Sesame Street jersey.Comment

Re: Grey Flannel Basketball HOF Auction
Just because something is listed on GF doesn't mean it is 100% authentic. I have seen too many people spend boat loads of money on NON authentic items from GF and other sports auction sites it makes me sick. Especially when these auction sites are made aware of the issues. If you turn up the heat most of the time they will remove the item in question but sometimes they could care less.
You gotta do your homework as usual. If something looks off stay away. Do not waste your money.
Also be VERY Leary of auction sites that do not take credit cards as payment. Because if you do buy that item and it turns out to be a forgery you pretty much are dead in the water.Comment
