    Thumbs up Bad Billy Williams Cubs jersey on eBay

    The seller (the same guy who offered the 1992 Cubs home Jeff Kunkel jersey as a George Bell) has one even more dubious up for bids now. The jersey is offered as a 1987 home coaches jersey of Billy Williams, but more than player misidentification plagues this one. For example:

    It's a Wilson jersey (Rawlings made the Cubs unis from 1987-91).

    Wilson tag is of the 1974-78 variety, and is zig-zag stitched onto the jersey (Wilson tags should be straight-stitched).

    Strip tag is incomplete (it should have set number and size, as well).

    Like the Kunkel, the seller has been notified of the issues, and, like the Kunkel, the seller has ignored it.

    I believe he's a member on here, I told him about the George Bell multiple times as well.

    FWIW, I've been emailing him, and he gives zero explanation for all this. Just wants to find a sucker, I guess.

    Hey, Mods, can this guy be banned? I know he doesn't post much, but he appears to be the kind of guy nobody wants around.
