    Re: GFC errs on another MeiGray Rangers jersey

    I would like to sincerely thank Chris Cavalier for posting details of his correspondance with Grey Flannel. My last post was meant to be sarcastic. Not towards Chris C. but towards this sketchy excuse from GFC. I should have included a few LOLs and smiley face icons.

    No further questions. The prosecution rests. The members of this forum should be ashamed of themselves for pre-judging Grey Flannel. Honest mistake.

    "c'mon...you know Keith Hernandez? Get outta here! You expect me to believe that you know Keith Hernandez?...c'mon"
    The Hernandez reference was taken from "Seinfeld" as a sign of disbelief:

    GEORGE: I gave. I gave everything I could Mrs. Sokol. but nothing was good enough
    for her.
    MRS. SOKOL: Sign here please.
    GEORGE: Ha, I don't know who she's looking for. I don't know. I'll tell you something.
    She's very particular, your daughter. Very particular. What is she looking for some
    big hot shot businessman? Well I've got my pride too. I'm not going to beg her.
    MRS. SOKOL: All right just sign it. People are waiting.
    GEORGE: You, uh, you like baseball? [picks up baseball from desk]
    MRS. SOKOL: That was autographed by the '86 Mets. I saw every inning that year.
    GEORGE: Funny, cause I happen to be very good friends with Keith Hernandez.
    MRS. SOKOL: You know Keith Hernandez.
    GEORGE: Know him? Would you, uh, like to meet him?
    MRS. SOKOL: Oh, come on. Come on.
    GEORGE: I can produce Keith Hernandez right here within the hour.
    MRS. SOKOL: All right. You got ONE hour.
    GEORGE: All right Mrs. S. I and my good pal Keith Hernandez will be right back.
    [exits]

    I would like to apologize to all forum members for my weak attempt at humor during this difficult situation.
    And by the way...Grey Flannel has numerous sports relics and beautiful vintage jerseys in ALL of their auctions. I search their auctions in AMAZEMENT. I look forward to viewing their items. They always have tons of jerseys that I would love to own!

      Chris,

      You've done more than ought to be realistically expected. As I mentioned, there are some serious incongruities with the explanation that GFC accidentally put the jersey up for auction; if the jersey was a consignment that was accidentally put on the site prior to researching it, then how were they able to put a firm price on it? If they were still waiting to hear back from MeiGray to find out if the jersey was game-issued or game-used, then how on earth were they able to come up with a price? They don't know the status of a jersey yet they can still price it?

      If the jersey was not a consignment and GFC owned it, then they're saying that they bought it without contacting MeiGray first?

      Rubbish.

      And of course, how do they explain the ARod - a jersey they auctioned off, sold, and wrote a letter on that was in fact game-issued. It would be foolish to expect anyone but GFC to be able to answer those questions. Unfortunately, it also seems foolish to actually expect GFC to come here and answer those questions. I have little doubt that they've read this thread. As Joel has elaborated, GFC, like some timid forest creature, apparently needs to be gently coaxed and wooed out of its safety zone in order to do what Vintage Authentics and Lelands has done several times over. It's not an 'treat' or a 'privilege' for a public business to respond to legitimate consumer concerns. It's a responsibility. At this point Chris, I think you've done more than enough.

      thanks for your efforts,

      Rudy.

      p.s. No I never got any sort of reply back from my email to GFC. Surprise.

        Rudy, you should pick up the phone and invite GFC to come here to this forum and discuss topics of interest to you.

        Oh wait, you must not use your phone because I know I emailed you to call me about something a few months ago and I never heard from you.

        Did you hear, I am moving next week?
