I Sold A Fake Kobe Bryant GU Jersey

Re: I Sold A Fake Kobe Bryant GU Jersey

I bought it from Vintage under the idea it was game used. I literally sold it off my back in Las Vegas. I was walking in Bellagio and a Laker fan saw it and inquired. I told him what it was and he offered to buy it. Thats how I lost track of the buyer. Never saw him again.


Thats how Lampson threw me under the bus......

Re: I Sold A Fake Kobe Bryant GU Jersey

I purchased the item below believeing it was a Kobe game used jersey. I then sold it a few weeks later for a little profit. When I sold it I had the best of intentions. However, a small time after that I found out that the jersey I sold was 10000% NOT game used. Mr. Lampson threw me under the bus. Kobe Bryant never ever at any time wore the jersey I believed to be the real deal. I never was able to find the buyer and the rest is history. Just wanted to share my story........

Ok Loomis, this is none of my business...but since you started this thread, it seems you want to answer questions. Did you consign it to Vintage or did you buy it from Vintage? I guess you bought from Vintage with an Lampson LOA. How exactly did Lampson throw you under the bus? How did you sell this jersey? On eBay? At a flea market? Wrapped up in a little plastic baggy in Washington Square (or MacArthur Park, insert shady locale here)? Yea, I'm trying to be funny, but how could you lose contact info for the buyer? Again, not trying to pass judgement...just asking 'cause you started the thread. Yes, Lampson doesn't know shine-ola from a hole in the ground.

I know my stuff on post 2001 NFL jerseys...and especially college football jerseys. On NBA I am not expert and I got burned. Unfortunately I passed (unintentionally) that burn onto someone else. After this Bryant debacle, I decided to no longer pay attention to ANY Lampson LOA.

It happens.
Sometimes even us so called "experts" in our respective areas get burned.
It takes a man to risk the consternation of some of the "holier than thou" contingent of this board to step up and own an eff-up.
You'll get no grief from this humble collector.
