    Michael is quite well known for trying to see something that isn't really there.

    Re: Opinion Tom Brady Alternate

    The sellers was asked why he is listing as game worn when LOA does not say that. His response.

    The Patriots will not issue any letters. When they do Mears will issue a Grade of A-9 and or A-10. Those jerseys are important on their home and away jerseys not as important on their one day alternative jerseys. When there is a team letter (very rarely) those jersey sell at auction at over 40K

    This jersey was owned by a Colorado Who is one of the biggest NE collector. He has several jerseys and have received them through his connection with the club.

    FYI Mears like PSA have database which includes all records on the manufacturer of their jerseys. They know how many jerseys were ordered by the teams for every player.
    Cond’t. When there is no team letter Mears uses the manufacturer data base. They will issue a Grade of A-5. Most Brady gamers graded by Mears have a A-5 Grade.

    Lastly, team orders only two alternates jerseys per player per game. This jersey is one of the two ordered by NE for the Sept 23, 2007 game. Thank you for your interest and I hope this info explains the grading company and how they can say Game Used.

    Thumbs up Re: Opinion Tom Brady Alternate

    A lot of mumbo-jumbo but still no justification for guaranteeing game use on a MEARS A5 jersey, something MEARS themselves wouldn't even do. Sounds like the guy's other job is writing government regulations.

    Thanks Dave and to everyone that has replied. Looks like another case of a seller hyping up something that it's not.
