Oakland A's Game Used Stand

Re: Oakland A's Game Used Stand

So far this year, the Oakland A's Community Fund has already auctioned off the following Suzuki game used items:

Alt Yellow Jersey
Home White Jersey
Road Grey Jersey
Road Batting Helmet
At least one set of catcher's gear (more like 2 and possibly 3)
A few bats

I'm sure there have probably been other items too.

Do you know how I can get in touch with them? Thanks...

Hey dnrapp was the Cespedes gamer used in the Japn series or back home in Oakland? Thanks...

Re: Oakland A's Game Used Stand

It was used in Japan and authenticated to the 29th which means it was the uniform he was wearing when he hit his first MLB home run and I bought it this morning so it's not available anymore.

You could try contacting their marketing or merchandising departments. Based on past experience, you probably won't have any luck.

With regard to the Community Fund Auction they literally don't know what they're going to get until they get it from the clubhouse on the day of the auction.

that was a cool jersey. A little bit out of my price range though.

They do have Josh Reddick's 2012 Japan Series jersey available for sale. It is a bit cheaper than Cespedes' jersey and it is completely covered in dirt.

So do you guys think that this will signal the end of the fanfest memorabilia sale?

[OaklandAsFan]

Re: Oakland A's Game Used Stand

doubt it,

The Dbacks have had a memorabilia store in one form or other for years yet every year they have a "garage sale" during their preseason fanfest. This year I picked up bats they were trying to sell for over $200 for $45.

It will just be the stuff that doesn't sell throughout the season most likely so the good stuff will not be out there for the fanfest.

No, but you probably won't be able to find the bigger names or more popular players at Fan Fest anymore.

From what I've been told, an outside company is running the game used store and a portion of the profits (~5-10%) is going to the A's Community Fund. I was surprised that the Community Fund wasn't running the store itself.

Re: Oakland A's Game Used Stand

Makes sense, at recent fanfests I think many of the bigger names have been sold elsewhere via auctions and stuff anyways i.e. Matsui, Suzuki, or even Weeks.
