Anyone have an idea which teams have the most GU items available for sale. Also wanted to know which teams are stingy about givinng out their GU stuff too.

Thanks

For which sport?

[MLB~NUT]

Id have to say the Tigers seem to sell the most GU items, some strange! The Padres seem to be the stingiest, but not a true market either....

The Dodgers seem to sell a lot of GU bats at the stadium.

Steelers very very tight with their equipment since the seventies.

Most MLB baseball teams are not too tough to run down in general.

I would say these for NFL. Although there are NFL auctions where a few items from each team come up, other than that there is not much out there on an ongoing basis for these teams below

1) Steelers
2) Buccaneers - 12 years ago a few hundred Bucs jerseys hit the market out the back door, ownership found out and through the team the have not officially sold any game used items.
3) Patriiots - a few old jerseys were online through the team and their London jerseys were dictated by NFL to be sold off, but not a ton out there
4) Texans
5) jaguars

While recent Tigers game used jerseys are all over the place these days, turn back the clock 20-25 years, and the Tigers were extremely tough to find good stuff on. The team pre-mid-1990s went out of their way to keep items out of the hobby market, and went so far as to send team employees undercover to visit Detroit area card shows with the purpose of confiscating any Tigers shirts deemed to have gone out the back door. Jim Schmakel's JS inscription being present meant it was released legitimately...no initials, and it was presumed to be stolen.
