Re: Had a good chuckle tonight.....

Just wanted to add as well that another reason I was suspicious was his feedback. There is a claim from a past buyer that they bought fake cleates. I dont know the seller but the totality of what I saw made me suspicious....

Andrew- My post didn't say or imply that there was anything dishonest. The point was that the seller could have made the ad clearer with a rewrite.

Agreed and I felt you wrote it that way.

Re: Had a good chuckle tonight.....

Like I said, I have no doubt that Milledge signed HIS bat at the jersey unveiling. I'm also not disputing whether or not the bat is GU.

My question to him was because I noticed that he is selling a game used bat and showed photos to prove the legitmacy of the auto on it. The problem was that the photos of the bat being autographed are of a bat that I own. That makes me suspicious. There was a potential when I inquired of him, that he could have had stolen scans of someone else's bat and was trying to pull something funny. Haven't we all seen that before? I already knew that the photos of the bat being auto'd were not the same.

Having personal knowledge that Andrew was at the unveiling and was having Milledge bats signed made me inquisitive. I was looking out for him, hoping that someone wasnt running a scam auction based on seeing Andrew there.

Anyway, the real issue is, in my mind that someone can make a mistake when listing the item in the auction. Mistakes happen..... BUT when you are asked the question and you outright lie and say that you have a bat that is sitting next to me, well, that's where I have a problem.

Jim - Good talking to you today. Just arrived at The Homestead and NOT COLD ENOUGH for snow today, but it is great. They said I am staying in the Reynolds Suite (LOL).

As we discussed, I spoke to the seller and because he has bids couldn't make revisions to his description only add-on to it but he said he didn't want to confuse anything.

Well now, I wasnt aware that they named a suite after me! I only stayed there once!

Make sure you get to the shooting range, and eat an Sam Sneads!
