The jersey in question is a size 48 not a size 40.

The jersey in question obviously did not originate from Steiner as already discussed, but to clarify MBenga28's question, not all Yankees jersey had year tags this past season. I had several of the pinstripe jerseys from the set authenticated after the last regular season home game and I think only 2 had a year tag. That said, those particular jerseys had MLB and Steiner Authentication so the lack of a year tag was not all that alarming - much unlike the AROD being discussed here.

Looks like the jersey is re-listed with the Steiner hologram removed:

Re: Fraudulent Arod 2010 Team Issued Jersey on Ebay

is this a blank?

Judging by the size (40), I would say that is a bat boy used jersey.

I have 2 blanks that I bought from Steiner last year. They are both home jerseys tagged 2008, with no numbers or patches. They have the Steiner hologram and the LOA states that they are game issued jerseys with no number or patches.

Re: Fraudulent Arod 2010 Team Issued Jersey on Ebay

why blanks, can't this seller be buying real game lightly used jerseys with numbers taking off the number and recustomizing it.

the problem I have are the shops who do customizing. they are the ones who should be called out. didn't the NFL lock down on some stores from customizing jerseys, baseball basketball and hockey need to do the same.

The answer to the blank jersey question is as follows. We haven't recevied blank jerseys from the Yankees for years. Can't remember the last time we had them, so in this case this is not the issue.

I posted this to alert potential buyers. Yes its a concern, yes I'm pushing for the number hologram system to work on the website. FYI 2010 Issued jerseys will have a distinct marking that Game Used will not. So I'm aware of the issues, I'm aware that people are beating the system and I'm working hard to get things in the right direction. If you want to ask any other questions call me 888-265-9298.

Just curious JTorrez, are you the seller of this jersey? I'm asking because I just received an email from the seller with the same comments you posted.

Can you please post the email that was sent to you?

No, I am not the seller of this jersey. I was curious as to why Steiner sells blank team issued jerseys that are not marked or labeled as blank and whether or not they are culpable in the jersey that was being sold. If the problem in the industry is that people are creating jerseys out of blanks, how can Steiner go after them if they provided the blank?

Re: Fraudulent Arod 2010 Team Issued Jersey on Ebay

Notice the laundry tag that it is a 48C. The C is for customization which I believe Majestic started putting those "C's" on there in 2008 or 2009. Even if the MLB logo on the back of the neck is incorrect, they can still take off the old one and add a new one.

Maybe Steiner should try to figure out who this guy is! Is it really that difficult?

I am wondering if the hologram matches to a blank issue jersey or a Arod team issue jersay. It doesn't seem that a blank issue would have a 'C' tag or would it.
