Re: Your top GU pickup of 2012
For me, it would be Jeter's game used cleats from 2011 season - DJ3K makes it even better. Now I am waiting for the opportunity to send them in and get them signed by the Captain himself.
Hopefully, by the beginning of 2013, I will have a Jeter's signed bat to match.Comment

Re: Your top GU pickup of 2012
The 1,273 game used 04 and 05 MLB locker nameplates that I sold off this year was the top pickup. Most people were great to deal with when I sold them off. But with that many to sell, plenty of flakey people to deal with in the process, which really became a pain.
Without that bulk buy it would not allowed me to get the following:
-Ben Zobrist game used new concussion style helmet
-Elliot Johnson 2012 pink mother's game Used homerun bat
-Michael Koenen 2011 Buccaneers game used jersey
-Jack Golden Bucs Game USed 2002 & super bowl helmet
-Chuck Darby 2002 red game used playoff and super bowl jersey (grail item)
-Ben Zobrist game issued 2009 all star game bp jersey
-Matt Joyce 2011 game used fielding glove
-Hank Blalock Rays game used helmet and jersey
-Ben Zobrist rookie year 2006 game used bat (authenticated)
-1996 orange game used Bucs jersey (grail item)Comment

Without a doubt my Ryan Clark game worn Steelers jersey from 11/4/12 @ Giants. Can't get any better than having your favorite player hand you the jersey off his back.Comment

Michael Strahan gamer. He was one of my favorites and since he retired years ago never thought I would pick up one of his gamers.Comment

1926 Ray Blades Cardinals home jersey. Blades was the team's starting left fielder that year until a knee injury ended his season in August. 1926 was the year the Cardinals won their first World Series.

For me it has to be the Kurt Suzuki 2012 Oakland Athletics catchers gear. If Kurt had not got traded to the Nationals it probably would not have been up for sale.
Also I have to thank my wife for buying the gear for me.

Re: Your top GU pickup of 2012
I've been truly blessed, and am thankful for the many quality pickups acquired this year. Picking just one is tough, but if pressed hands down it would be one I got early on. Jamal Dobbs NAVY game worn Pro Combat helmet from the Academy's win over Army last year!Comment
