Cabrera Helmet

[skyking26]

Being offered a game used helmet (home) of Miguel Cabrera. What should the price be?

Helmet is signed on bill and contains a holo on the inside and a holo on the outside. I can post those too if anyone would like. This is a helmet I want to buy. The seller has not given me a price yet. I thought I'd get an idea thru the forum first?

Is the holo an MLB holo? That's probably a good place to start.

Outside HOLO: 143868 LH

Inside HOLO: DB435951689 (this appears to be the MLB HOLO)

The first hologram is the MLB Authetication for the helmet.

I realize this will sound stupid, but you should pay what you're willing to pay. The helmet appears to check out as a game used helmet, and I'm not sure how often those come to market for the Tigers.

I have no idea what to pay on this. The seller told me to "come and look at it." He's not exactly next door and I could Saturday but really need a firm idea on value... Anyone?

Its a playoff helmet so adjust accordingly

I recently paid $300 off one of the guys on here for a Torii Hunter ALCS Game Used Helmet with the MLB Hologram and authenticity. In the auctions I've seen for jerseys, they are rolling in the $2,000 to $3,000 range. Helmets are tricky but I would think you are looking at $750 to $1,000 in value for Cabrera. I know Tigers were selling hats for $750. That may be a cheap estimate, but I don't think you can get more than that in return for the investment. See what you can do to get the price down - this is the year to do it. Good luck!

I also looked up the game - he went 1 for 6 with a strikeout and a base hit, so it's not like the statistics justify a higher price for it. Good luck!
