Picked up the Leonard Davis helmet. Looks like it has pretty good wear. I can't wait to get it.

I almost bid on that one too but I bought 3 Cowboys helmets within the last couple months so I had to hold back Plus I have my eye on a few jerseys coming up.
Re: Did anyone win anything from the Steiner Auction?
Back to the topic at hand I picked up a pair of Bobby Carpenter Cowboys jerseys from the Steiner auctions....one team issued and one game used. Thay arrrived today. I got in a bidding war on the gamer and paid a little more than necessary.

I was told that the equipment mgr writes a W on the jerseys that have been worn in a game...anyone else know if this is true?
I have 2 2005 Giants jerseys and 1 each from 2006 and 2007. All came directly from the Giants, none have a "W" and one of them is absolutely "hammered" so I know it was used in a game.
Re: Did anyone win anything from the Steiner Auction?
No response. I guess if his prices were a little more realistic, he would sell more, and more people would complain.
I just received my jerseys and stadium turf placks yesterday. Nice jerseys, good price. The two game used jerseys (Jason Fabini and Keon Lattimore), show nice use. Too bad the Prova system is no longer online.
Re: Did anyone win anything from the Steiner Auction?
I asked the seller (dalcowbill) if these were the same jerseys, and if so, why isn't he mentioning the fact that it is game issued jersey and it comes with a Steiner LOA:

I have been watching him pick up issued jerseys from big name players and list them on EBAY as game used/worn for inflated prices. He is not a very honest seller -too bad the prova site is no longer working or he would get caught doing this -with the site nonfunctional it allows him to be the dishonest seller that he is .

Actually when the Prova site was working that didn't stop him either. I was interested in a few jerseys he had and emailed him for the Prova #'s. When I looked them up they said issued to team or something like that with no dates shown. I emailed him and told him basically if there aren't any games/dates listed showing when the jersey was worn it wasn't game worn. His response? If anything has a Prova tag no matter what it says as far as he's concerned it's a game worn jersey.
Last time I looked (it was awhile ago) I would say 80%-90% of the jerseys he was selling as game used were game issued. I emailed him a few times about various jerseys telling him they weren't game used and his response is always basically if you want it buy it if not don't.
He has outbid me on a few auctions and usually has them listed on ebay within hours of the auction closing for 3 times what he got them for or more.
Other than all that he seems like an honest seller

Yes, I am aware of that guy. There was a jersey that I really wanted but I had to get on an airplane and when I landed, I had lost it. The jersey is forsale on Ebay for almost 3 times what he won it for. He has those jerseys for sale and they haven't even shipped yet...
Its funny how the jerseys that were listed by Steiner as "issued", are now on ebay listed as "game used / worn" and they don't mention the steiner loa. the jerseys that were listed by steiner as "game used" , mention the steiner loa. not making any accusations, just noticed this on his listings. also, his prices are more than steiners and he doesnt seem to sell many of them.
Re: Did anyone win anything from the Steiner Auction?
The jersey that I have is from MeiGray. It also has dirt stains on it. Maybe it is something that was done for MeiGray. It is something that I never thought about...just assumed all game worn jerseys from the Giants have the W on it...
