Re: Ranking these GU items
I've got one of those shower-wrap things, you know the terry-cloth towel-like item with the velcro that you wrap around your waist, "locker room-worn" by Kelly Stinnett, when he was with the DBacks. I'm not sure that's any better than shower shoes, really...but in my defense, I got it really cheap.
Personally, my list would go:
1. Bat
2. Jersey
3. Fielding Glove
4. Batting Helmet
5. Field Jacket
6. Cleats
7. Hat
8. Batting Glove
9. Pants
10. Wristband
Had to toss in Field Jackets, of which I've got a few, just 'cause I think they're really cool, and as for scarcity, I'd guess that they're right up there with Fielding Gloves. My favorites are probably the one worn by the late Aurelio Rodriguez when he was managing for Chihuahua of the Mexican League, and one of Buck Showalter's specially-tailored short-sleeved jackets from the '99 Diamondbacks.

Re: Ranking these GU items
In my opinion I would say your pretty dead-on accurate with this list with the exception of 1 thing, I would say Fielding glove would be just as popular as a Jersey or bat because of the rarity but you may not see as many people go for them because they are very rare on the market / which causes high price tags on them and they are very hard to authenticate.
Think of it like this I am sure just about every collector here would love to have in there collection a fielding glove from there favorite player but what are the chanes of any of us obtaining one? slim, because of rarity / high price tag.

Re: Ranking these GU items
godwulf, I am trying to ge input for two separate lists. Which list is yours?
Scarcity
1. Fielding Glove
2. Batting Helmet
3. Field Jackets
4. Baseball Pant
5. Cleats
6 hats
7. Jersey
8. Batting Glove
9. Wristband
10. Bat
Popularity
1. Jersey
2. Bats
3. Fielding Glove
4. Hat
5 Batting Glove
6. Batting Helmet
7 Wristband
8. Cleats
9. Field Jacket
10. Pants
Does everyone think Field Jackets are game used items. I have seen pitchers use them when running the base. I guess if you are running pine, it is worn during the game.
Additional input would be helpful.
Cut and Paste and make your own list.Regards,

Re: Ranking these GU items
Dave;
Cardinal bats are also my priority and concur with you on the jerseys. Would have to say that some bats are easy to locate, however for me RP bats are the hardest to obtain. Some I have never seen...........
Enjoy your posts.
