Josh Hamilton Holy Grail

[frikativ54]

Your chance to own a Josh Hamilton 2010 World Series game used hat. It shows a ton of use and is signed by the man himself. I would die for Bagwell's WS hat.

They listed a game used glove too, although not attributed from the World Series.

$650 is too much for a hat though.

They had one up for auction a couple of years ago.

Starting price is too high on the glove
Prices on gloves have been too high in general

Hamilton glove shouldn't sell for more than $600-750 tops - and that's only because of his current popularity - once that wanes, prices should drop, but who knows...

Where do you get your figures? A couple of years ago, when a MLB authenticated Hamilton glove sold on MLB.com Auctions, it garnered in the ballpark of $2,000. And that was during a down year for Josh. Based on prices of other stars, I would say that a Hamilton glove is worth $2,500 to $3,500 at minimum.

I have to respectfully disagree here. Hamilton bats generally seem to fetch between 500-700. How many bats does he go through in a given season? 75-100 maybe. How many gloves does he likely use in a season? 1 or 2 most likely. Even if he goes through 5 gloves which seems highly unlikely they are still in far far shorter supply than a bat that can command 500-700, therefore being far more valuable than a bat. If the glove goes for 2k it is steal compared to the price of the bat. Gloves are generally undervalued.

Those estimates might be low too. The last two bats on MLB auctions just sold for $1100 and $1400 so the prices may be going up. The only thing is both of those bats were bought by NEWYORK25, but they have to have other bidders to get up that high.
