As danesei@yahoo.com I'm sure can attest, his concern was not only replied to, but I informed the buyer and he/she was satisfied as well. Thanks danesei@yahoo.com for reaching out.

Sorry for not posting sooner. I agree that the solution for the Korcheck was good. 50% refund for it being a store model. Though, I'm still disappointed that a game-issued (not entirely game ready) Hundley glove was sold as game used. Though, I suppose that's a matter of opinion, at some level.

FWIW, I don't think I'll get a reply, since I noticed it with 3 hrs left in the auction.

I believe that is one of the 2 or 3 ebay usernames that forum member rchimes13@yahoo.com uses frequently.

Probably not. Looks like he made his investment back and still has in my opinion the better of the gloves left.

did you message the seller maddimae18 about your opinion and concerns ?

If so what did he say?

Yes, I did. No reply.

maddimae18 (who is a member here) has three "game used" gloves listed on eBay:

Steve Korcheck:

Todd Hundley:

All three gloves were acquired from Heritage Auctions in this lot:

One problem is (and I messaged Heritage about it) that the Korcheck is a store/endorsed model glove. Another problem is the Hundley was sold as a back-up glove, and given Heritage's liberal use of "game used," that might mean it never entered a game.

He also has the Willard up:

I don't know enough about minor league Mizuno mitts, so that one is probably good.

Anyway, the original lot sold for $310 (including BP), which was a pretty good deal. I guess I just feel a bit disappointed that a well-known member would be selling a back-up/game issued glove as game used, when the glove notably hasn't been fully broken in yet. The store model Korcheck doesn't surprise me, as much, as it took a lot of research beforehand (while the auction was in session) to figure that out.
