Re: Check out this Bench "Gamer" Wow..just wow
I sent this to info@tsabats.com and included all the fact from this thread.
"Hi,
I'd like to ask you about this bat. (link included)
The bat is not a 77-79 era HB Bench bat. There is no model number on the knob and there should be a model number to the right
of the GENINUE. How did you deduce that this bat is a R43C ordered by Bench? Additionally "C" means the barrel end is cupped
and this bat is not cupped. If this bat is 37.5 inches that is incorrect too because Bench never orderd bats this length.
Please share your thoughts on this?
Thanks"

TSA authenticators are in Whitestone Queens. College Point the sellers location is the next town over. I never heard of TSA and it's right in my own backyard. I'd love to find out more about them.Leave a comment:

Another thing is the model number stamped to the right of GENINUE is non-existent. With the barrel stamp missing how does the seller know its a R43?
I emailed the seller questioning this bat stating that 77-79 bats have model numbers to get an initial feel of where he's coming from.Leave a comment:

Their "logo" is a basic format you find on microsoft word. Shows how cheap they areLeave a comment:

I'm wondering if the Ebay seller is also the "authenticator." This type of "authentication" goes to show you how far someone will go to make a buck off of something fake.Leave a comment:

It had JB4 on the knob - and since this knob has been doctored, it makes more sense to me. Thanks for the help guys.Leave a comment:

So many things are wrong with this bat. It calls it a R43C - C designates cupped on the end.. Uh...the bats not cupped.
Bench NEVER ordered a 37 oz bat. Ever. Just horrible.Leave a comment:

I'd like to know how a company that considers itself experts can give the bat a model number when none exists. And yes, that knob has had some work done to it.Leave a comment:

Store model with the "JB3" or "JB4" obviously sanded down.Leave a comment:

I'm not a vintage bat collector - maybe you could educate me. I think I can spot a few things - and I am assuming this is a store model bat (?)...
But I really have no idea what to look for. Thanks.Leave a comment:
