Which jersey would you buy??
I have the chance to pick up two nice jerseys, the problem is I can only afford one right now.
I wanted to ask members of the forum which one they think would be a better investment.
Jersey #1 - 2012 Orioles Adam Jones game used Spring Training / BP jersey
Jersey #2 - 2012 Orioles Manny Machado game used Spring Training / BP jersey from first ML Spring Training. #85
Both show good use.
Let me know what you guys think.

I would probably lean towards Machado if you are looking at it as an investment. They both will be/are solid major league players for many years to come.

You will be able to buy plenty of A Jones stuff in the future, but a first ST jersey of Machado would be a no brainer!

If you are doing it for investment purposes, the Machado has greater potential to be worth more. However, Adam Jones is more of a sure bet. Prospects don't always pan out. So - Just keep that in mind, when you make your purchase. Good luck in whatever you decide.

I personally would save the money for a actual season used jersey. I'm sure because of his hype the jersey ain't cheap to begin with. And say he does become a huge star, will a spring training BP jersey really go up in value much?

Id go with machado. Being there both spring training jerseys. I would think the Rookie season one would be more valuable in the long run.

Re: Which jersey would you buy??
I highly doubt a spring training jersey would be worthy of an investment piece.
You don't really see people looking for HOF players' ST jerseys ever and I don't think the 2 you listed will be an exception in the future.
That being said, my preference would be for the Machado jersey over Jones.-Randy

Re: Which jersey would you buy??
Thank you guys for the responses. I guess I misused the word investment. I guess what I meant to say is which one should I spend my money on.
