Derek Jeter Opening Series Items Going for Big Prices

[BamaHater]

Some of him stuff is up from the Opening Series in Houston. Will this be the norm for the rest of the season.
$1,250 for an Opening Day Locker Tag

$1,000 for a Game Used Baseball where he was HBP in Opening game. If a HBP ball is going for this what will a hit or dare say home run go for.

Can't get links to work correctly but the items are on the Houston Astros page of MLB Auctions.

Steiner must be thrilled when Girardi sits Jeter for games.

That's insane.
He is not even the best future HOFer on the team. For their careers Ichiro was a better batter, fielder, and base runner.

It'll be interesting to see what Ichiro's final season items go for. But Jeter is the most marketable face of baseball so collectors will pay premiums for his items.

With the Japanese bidding on his items it may get crazy.

Or you know...a player could just retire after the season and not make a big circus out of it. For the most part I am not really a big fan of the Chipper, Mariano, and Derek way of doing things.

I think prices will drop a little mid season and then come September it will skyrocket.

This is the first wave of stuff and it will go for crazy money. You never know that might end up being his last HBP. It is a gamble.
