Re: Reggie White Super Bowl Jersey

Well after reading this thread it definitely had twists and turns.. But all seems to be adding up to a happy ending for someone.. Should be interesting to see where the bidding goes to..
And I was just checking the upcoming auctions as well and I seen a Barry Sanders Jersey in the upcoming heritage auction..
Maybe 2nd place guy on helmet gets the jersey..
Not sure how to post a link.. But I'm sure someone could that. .

I'm calling BS. But... if you're willing to spend that much, and advertised it, I can definitely make sure you DO spend that much.

VCNJ - I'm just yanking your chain, however, I will likely be bidding against you so the price is going up. Not willing to reveal my hand just yet, but I'm more of a jersey collector, so I'm not sure how far I'm willing to take it.

It was a much easier decision when we all thought it might be fake.

Re: Reggie White Super Bowl Jersey

Let me get this straight. WP's career helmet went for $68k, and you're willing to spend more than that for a lightly used Barry Sanders backup helmet worn possibly once?

Notice the little Winky face at the end?! Just havin a Lil fun. I will make a good run at it- not 68k good. I'm a huge Barry Sanders fan but I'm not completely insane...
...and we definitely don't want to push to see what the max bid will be. :\

I have never done business with this company and just noticed they only take check, money order and wire transfer. Needless to say I am done bidding. I am not gonna take a chance losing 5 figures or more. Good luck to the bidders.

I think the list of auction houses that don't accept cards is a lot longer than the ones that do. Pretty common practice I believe, but yeah, having 5 figures right out of your own checking account can make one uneasy!

Most auction houses say that, but I've found that when push comes to shove, many of them will take a card.

Just don't ask them BEFORE the auction ends

If someone will beat what I'm feeling my max bid will be, it will definitely beat that Walter Payton… jus saying.

Re: Reggie White Super Bowl Jersey

Any guesses on the final hammer? I cannot see it topping the Walter Payton lid for $68k....

Re: Reggie White Super Bowl Jersey

Some great info here.

I hope to win several key pieces to my collection.

I already got outbid on the Sanders helmet but am not done quite yet.

Good luck to everyone and may the man with the deepest pockets win lol

Re: Reggie White Super Bowl Jersey

Clearly I'm interested in the helmet...but what are people's thoughts on the value of a "pro bowl" helmet that looks like it has only been documented to have been worn for one game?

Given the rarity of finding a true, documented Sanders piece, in my opinion it wouldn't diminish the value. How many legit Sanders helmets have traded hands? I don't remember one. The fact that it came from Reggie White's estate also adds to its history.

I'll be jumping into the ring on this shortly, good luck to everyone!
