ASI / Historic Auctions / Expert Sports Authentication

[bscott]

I know I'm rehashing a bit, but this is too much fun!

to add to the posting which i listed earlier today:

After cross-referencing the purchases made by the Ebay user ID "turtlegrrl18" with items that sold today in an auction from "historic auctions," you can see three jerseys that may have been purchased as "game issued" in september 2006 and that may have been sold as game used (authenticated by Brad Wells) today!

The list is:

1. Scott Rolen Cardinals Home Jersey. Purchased by turtlegrrl18 on August 18th, 2006 on Ebay (item #110026369369). Item purchased as "GAME ISSUED." A Rolen Jersey sold December 15th, 2006, at www.historicauctions.com, as "GAME USED," accompanied by a letter of authenticity from BRAD WELLS.

Ironically, the jersey was purchased on ebay for $700 was "game issued", and the one sold at historic auctions for $550 was "game used".


2. Mike Piazza 2006 Padres Away Jersey. Purchased as a "GAME ISSUED" Jersey on August 27, 2006 by ebay user, "turtlegrrl". It is ebay item #110026398287. A 2006 Piazza Away Jersey sold December 15, 2006 as "GAME USED" in an auction at Historic Auctions.

This Piazza jersey was purchased on ebay for $700. The one at historic auctions sold for $1210.


3. Albert Pujols Cardinals 2006 Away Jersey. This Jersey was purchased as a "GAME ISSUED" Jersey on August 27th, 2006 on ebay for $1500 by "turtlegrrl". A 2006 Pujols Away Jersey sold on December 15, 2006 as a "GAME USED" Jersey at Historic Auctions for $2342.56.

This Pujols Jersey was purchased as game issued for $1500. The one sold as game used went for $2342.56.

Overall, the three "game ISSUED jerseys" were purchased for $2900.
The three "game USED jerseys" sold for $4102.56.

A difference of $1202.56.

Not a lot of money when one considers how much, oh, shall we say, just hypothetically, an attorney charges a client who is brought up on federal charges of fraud and/or larceny by way of deception.

Just saying that lawyers fees are exorbitant, that's all.



So, game used universe, what do you think of the correlation between what was purchased just a few months ago and what was sold today?

Looks like the forum had all of this information 3 years before the FBI did.

Kudos to those that did the leg work
