Paragon Lot #133 - 17 Yankees Bats

[DonFan23]

If anyone is bidding and looking to lessen their costs, I'm interested in 3 of the lesser bats in that lot. Feel free to email me at donfan23 at aol dot com.

Thanks,

R.J.

I was just looking at that Lot. Doesn't a Jeter alone sell near $2,000? I would expect a lot of last minute bids.

Its at $2,426 now for 17 bats which works out to $143 per bat.

Hmmm, my, my, my...

I don't see any indication of who does Paragon authentications, but we've just seen a gazillion post thread on GUU that was the result, at least in part, of a "bat expert" who does not have access to H & B records.

Go figure.

Nope, I see it too... and no written indication of the BP tape removed from the Soriano either.

Re: Paragon Lot #133 - 17 Yankees Bats

Clearly BP tape on the Soriano but still game used.

FYI: The listing has been updated:

IT WAS BROUGHT TO OUR ATTENTION THAT THE DEREK JETER BAT HAD A LINE UNDER THE 125. WE HAVE REPLACED THAT BAT WITH ANOTHER JETER THAT IS SIGNED AND HAS LIGHT USE WITH A NICE COAT OF MOTO STICK ON THE HANDLE. BAT IS FROM 2003/2008. WE APOL0GIZE FOR THIS MISTAKE. PLEASE EMAIL KEITH@PARAGONAUCTIONS FOR PHOTO'S.

Paragon just emailed me with this: Keith has replaced Jeter Bat with another that is signed.

Either earlier MLB or more likely Steiner, both used circle holograms at one point.

Those are definitely Steiner holograms as you can see the plate logo in the center of them. But yes, both MLB and Steiner have used circle holograms in the past. I do not believe that Steiner issued paperwork with all of these holograms, as I believe most, if not all, are unnumbered. Hope this helps!
