Used Shower Shoes - Cool or Weird?

[rudyjj18]

I have the opportunity to get a high profile player's shower shoes. Is the general consensus that it's creepy? Or that it's a unique item that usually doesn't hit the market?

I'm really on the fence with this. Help!

I would say slightly gross and creepy since I'm assuming you wouldn't want to wash them (although after thinking about it.. it's probably already washed).... but still kind of gross.. but I'm a slight germaphobe too

I think weird, I mean to each their own and obviously there is a market for them as I do see them online quite often, but I wouldn't add it to my collection.

Collect what you like.

I wouldn't want something that was on anyones feet, but thats just my own hangup.

I say if the price is right grab them. People collect everything and anything.

Several issues on this one:

1) How would you verify that the player wore them? Photo matching?

2) It's simply gross, and well past the line of stalker-ish.

3) It is a unique item for which there probably isn't a market. I think there's a bit of "greater (greatest) fool" going on here.

They come with a coa from the players autograph agent at the time. No "hard" evidence like photo matching and such but it's a reliable source. I'm on the side of creepy and weird.

Weird. Like a jock strap or a toothbrush.

Some things just need to be thrown away, no matter who they were "used" by.

A jockstrap is taking it too far. A pair of sandals not as much. Unless of course you are afraid of feet.
