I'm wondering, is there a market for game used MLS/NWSL items? In particular, is there a market for game used cleats? I'm wondering since it seems soccer players wear out their cleats even faster than baseball players seem to, so there might be enough supply out there to fully saturate any potential demand.

Well, I won a set of cleats that were listed on ShopGoodwill.com (pretty good site for getting occasional game used items -- you overpay, but not as much as you overpay on eBay). The set was four pairs of signed cleats. Yes, that was the description. I managed to photo match one of the pairs to Christine Sinclair (captain of the Portland Thorns & Team Canada). The others will take a bit more effort once I actually have them in hand.

I feel I overpaid, but at the same time, the game might end up being historic, if the league doesn't fold. It was the inaugural home game for the Portland Thorns, who won the league championship for the first NWSL season.Comment

Re: Game used soccer items
And after staring at photos for a while, I concluded the black cleats were worn by Meleana Shim. I'll verify when I have them in hand and post the photomatch.Comment
