Oil Can,

Are you serious about Damon using the bat? That's a pretty lame!

Bobby

Bobby, are you serious? I think it's pretty obvious that I was being sarcastic, given the comment directly below the one you're citing in that very same post as well as my initial comment on this thread.

In a word - no, I was not serious about Damon using the bat after you sold it at all.

I just got a friendly e-mail from Mike!


Hey F**KHEAD,
Instead of being a backstabbing little f**king coward,
why didn't you email me first.

Before you condem someone, gets the facts straight.

Fact, I have 4 others Damon bats from 2005, whose
numbers on the knob are placed exactly as on the
photo, I sent that idiot JON. The bat in question has
18 in a circle towards the middle of the cup end.
Similiar to 2 others I have.

The 18 on the knob is in the exact same place, same
exact location, covering the brown dot and the number
4 almost identically in each case. I bought them from
the same guy I get everything else from. I also have a
bunch of Ortiz bats, that have the exact same number
placement, exact.

My only regret is I spent way too much time dealing
with a f**king loser like you, with no money and
plenty of time on his hands.

All your email is going to be directed to my yahoo
trash, so I'm done dealing with you, LOSER..


I sent him an e-mail back, since it may go to his trash. He can read it here!

Hey Mike,

Your full of SH*T!!

I sold you the bat in January and you did some altering to it.....plain and simple!! Don't try to deny it! Your the coward trying to hide behind your lies, faking use on the Damon bat for the sole purpose of selling it for more, now look the shit has hit the fan and this incident is going to cost you some business, was it really WORTH IT? There are a lot of people that now know what kind of person you really are, what are you going to do now, come up with a third eBay name, so you can sell your so called game used items??


I know you mentioned to Jon that because of your disabilities you can get a free lawyer, what you really need to look into is a free psychiatrist!!!

If Mike can back up that statement then post pictures here of all 4 bat knobs in the same photo.

Re: Possible altering of bats in question.Please look

First off you all must realize that he is not gonna post any pictures cause either they don't exist or will condemn him further(if that is possible).In his reply to Bobby all he mentions is the knob.What about the perfect match on all the bat rack marks,the white mark on the knob,and the marks above and below the engraving.This guy is a ripper no matter how many good deals any of you may have had with him.I would call all his deals into question now.Look how he reacts when he is caught!This is a very bad guy....

I'm just throwing it out there. If he wants to make that statement then by all means back it up!

There is no way in hell I'd ever give someone my hard earned money who personally attacked other forum members as they did. Attack one of us, you attack all of us. That's NO way to treat a customer.

Does anyone have an opinion about the Alex Rodriguez bat he has on ebay right now? I was looking at it and then read this thread.

Re: Possible altering of bats in question.Please look

This is the last one i promise.Here is the latest email from Mike,Dolpinboy,Princess whatever.I got to him through ebay since my emails are automatically returned....

Haven't checked the sight and never will. I've had a couple of past custmers, who have money, call me to say how pathetic you look. It's a desperate cry for help. It's obvious you have nothing going on in your life. Please find another penpal to talk to, I don't have the time for you. You may want to call the Good Samaritans, they help potential suicide cases like you all the time.


WOW......................

Nothing like getting busted for being a fraud and lashing out at anyone and everyone.

I got to admit I am curious what he will come up with next. Possible senarios include:

1) Threaten to have you deported to Siberia
2) Put you in his tank of sharks with fricking lasers on their heads.
3) Contact his alien friends to have you probed.
4) Lock you in a room with no windows and Celine Dion music playing on repeat.
5) Come to a consensus with the other voices in his head on proceeding to dish out verbal assults and empty threats.

It is easy to act tough over the internet. Some days you just wish you could meet them in person and see how tough they really think they are. Pathetic.

Re: Possible altering of bats in question.Please look

I'm not sure about the Arod bat. But the Boggs bat is questionable.
Ebay Item # 120038114899

From reading up on Boggs and seeing some of his bats per Jim Caravello's article.

http://www.gameuseduniverse.com/blog/post.php?topic=114

You will notice the ball marks above the logo. Which seems too uncharacteristically for Boggs gamers.

Check out the article....great pictures of the 1986 allstar game bat that was discussed previously.

Re: Possible altering of bats in question.Please look

Wow! First time I read this thread. Unbelieveable!

There's no question the bats are the same. No question! It amazes me how the seller still denies it, even when the pictures prove it.

As most of you may be aware, I recently got burned on a so-called arod game/worn glove. Turned out to be a glove made for upperdeck to have arod and griffey sign for sale as a promo glove back in 1999 (Retail $299). I sent the glove back to the seller. Once he got it back in his possession, he got a nasty attitude with me and wouldn't return my money. Filed a complaint via paypal. Luckily, he had the money sitting in his paypal account, so paypal took it and waited for the outcome of the dispute. He never disputed it and I received my money back via paypal two days ago.

He also left me negative feedback. One thing I wish ebay would fix is this type of conduct by bad transactions. Many buyers and sellers won't leave negative feedback for bad transactions because they know they'll get the same. This let's those who are dishonest to continue to conduct bad business, as their feedback doesn't honestly reflect their conduct.

Someone worked that glove up to look game used. Just like the Damon bat. Greed has taken over this hobby. Although most in the hobby are good, it amazes me more and more how many bad people are coming into the hobby.

I guess when a person lacks morales, integrity, and a conscious, they don't care and can sleep at night.

What really makes me shake my head is when it's so obvious what was done, the sellers will still deny it. Also, honest sellers wouldn't respond with the trash mouth like so many do. When innocent, you're willing to do the right thing. When guilty, you only get defensive.

I also think it's sad that a person would use their handicaps or disabilities in their favor, as if they think we are to think that people with these problems couldn't do wrong. Very sad!

Good work by everyone in this forum.

Re: Possible altering of bats in question.Please look

Scott,

Did something recently happen with him?

[Swoboda4]

Re: Possible altering of bats in question.Please look

THE QUESTION NOW IS, WHO HAS BOUGHT FROM HIM (I shall now call him,"The Artist"), AND WHAT ITEM IS IT? You might as well burn them in the fireplace so no other members get stuck with his "art work". Lets turn this thread into a Dolphin Boy Museum of Fraud. Earlywynnfan, you mentioned you obtained bats from him? I will now check my ebay history if I encountered this "Artist"
