Andrew-
Let's not forget that there are quite a few Jeter's on ebay every month with all the correct tags and are also being sold legitimately as "team-issued" or "Non-game worn". Add these to your list of 6 or 8 that are being sold as game worn and now you have 10, 2005 home jerseys that have been produced for Jeter THAT HAVE MADE THEIR WAY TO THE HOBBY!! Also, let’s not forget about the handful of Steiner “non-game worn” Jeters that have been sold. Don’t think for a second that some of these have mysteriously reentered the hobby as game worn, however, void of the original Steiner cert. It appears there is an endless supply, and based on this, who would buy a 2005 or 2006 Jeter "gamer" without Steiner certs? The only exception(s) might be a gamer with a personal LOA from Jeter or a club official who donated it to a charity or similar activity.

Just my thoughts.....
