Re: Bonds SAM Bat

I just went to All Star Fan Fest over the weekend and looked up close at the Hunt Auctions Bonds Sam Bat -it does not show much use at all.
The current price is really surprising.

Re: Bonds SAM Bat

Here's my 2000 sam bat for reference. Would mine be worth in the 1500-2000 range?

Re: Bonds SAM Bat

He offered the bat to me for 4k. Dont' believe the bat has much use at all. If it did you would think a barrell picture would be added.

Re: Bonds SAM Bat

I asked the same question, as well as other questions. Never recieved a response. I was willing to make an offer still no response.

Re: Bonds SAM Bat

I dont think the bat on ebay has a MLB holo. I asked for the holo number but have not recieved a response.

Re: Bonds SAM Bat

Obviously the supply of these SAM bats still can't keep pace with demand. Even accounting for the price premium that a 'real' auction like Hunt would bring, these bats are still fetching a high price.

So much for my hopes of getting one from each year he used a SAM bat...

It's a nice bat, but I didn't think that Bonds bats went for this much anymore ($2850 with 4.5 days left): http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=170510133979 .

I recall the last Bonds SAM Bat on ebay went for maybe $1100. This current bat seems to be MLB authenticated--is that why it's going for so much? It still hasn't even hit reserve...
