Jim:

While both the Berra and the Theodore detoured to the minors (Mets front) before joining our hobby, they are both solid, with tags that look like they're supposed to.

So if the seller was able to send you those pictures shortly after you requested them, then what's the deal with his 48 hour rule? Why did he originally balk at sending extra pictures when it's now apparent that he's able to send them almost immediately? And why can't he just add the pictures to the auction page?

The seller sent me the following pictures of the black & the sleeve patch after I pointed out that there are more than 48 hours until the auction ends:

Nope...it's a bogus MLB jersey. The collar tag font isn't consistent with Wilson Mets road gamers of the era, and the Wilson tag is a 1979-86 design on an alleged 1973 jersey. AVOID!!

Here are some 1973 jerseys to consider.

More BS from the seller.

1) He won't include pictures of the back of the jersey because (he claims) the auction ends in less than 48 hours and there is not enough time to provide additional photos -- even though the auction ends on 9/14, four days from now.

2) He won't acknowledge or even address the in-authenticity of his collar and Wilson tags on grounds that he is a co-signee selling the jersey on behalf of the original owner and therefore, is bound by whatever information the original seller has provided him. As if his status as co-signee absolves him from listing the item accurately and honestly.

The front numbers look pretty close to the original...love to see what's on the back and the sleeve patch.

The Seaver photos were mine. I posted them at the end of my thread-starting post to compare with the seller's #41 jersey.
