Anybody's offer(s) get accepted by JO?

Re: Anybody's offer(s) get accepted by JO?

Hey Chris....For what its worth, I thought the format was Great and Kudos for whoever put it together!

It generated some interest on the Forum and I'm sure it gave JO a pretty good idea of what market Demand is.

At the end of the day, maybe someone gets a good Jersey at a price they were willing to pay and its a "WIN WIN" for all involved!

Global selling to a large group will almost always provide a cheaper sales price than just some "knucklehead" like me calling Vegas and offering them $300 for a Jersey that's worth a grand! Volume almost always drives pricing.

Best of luck to all.....and hopefully we have some good stuff to chat about shortly!

Hello Mulli,

Thank you for your post. I have heard privately from a number of people who are also thankful for the opportunity. However, it often seems the ones who try to see a half empty glass are often the most vocal.

As promised, JO Sports has been very gracious in this program and has done everything they can to try to accommodate the offers made by our members. In fact, I think it is fair to say the have tried to extend themselves as far as possible regarding the GUU member offers.

Specifically, there were a total of 114 offers of which JO Sports accepted 70. There are also 28 offers for which JO Sports has come back with counter offers and only 16 offers that were declined.

I had the opportunity to review all the offers and I will say that I think JO Sports was extremely giving in accepting many of the offers they did. I hope others will join me in thanking JO Sports for what they are doing for members of GUU.

We will be sending out emails on Tuesday to let everyone know if their offers were accepted and/or if there are counter offers from JO Sports. We will also be sending out invoices over the next few days. Again, given the number of offers, we also want to thank everyone for their patience in allowing us the time to handle all the requests that came in.

Sincerely,
Chris

i think it depends more on the jersey than the quantity. the top sellers they have left like peterson they probably will not budge that much on because someone will eventually buy them at a price close to their price now. the lower tier stuff, especially of guys no longer on that team, they are probably very eager to get rid of over the next few months to clear way for the new season especially if they are getting more teams.

Agreed.

Almost 30 hours later and nothing on this end.

Anybody else?

I like the idea of being able to make an offer, but I felt a simple, standard return email to anyone that made an offer that wasn't accepted would have been nice. Otherwise how do I know my email wasn't lost in the shuffle. Good luck everyone.

Re: Anybody's offer(s) get accepted by JO?

As per our post on the thread created for this topic, we are waiting for a reply from JO Sports and then will inform everyone of the offers accepted. This should hopefully happen sometime today. As it turned out, there were quite a few offers (actually more than we anticipated) and JO Sports is in the process of evaluating them.

Regarding the comments made by those who see no reason to make an offer through the GUU program, I made a post on the thread created for this topic. In case you haven't seen it, here it is for your convenience:

I submitted one too but I know I low balled it. I'm going to Las Vegas June 6-10. Maybe I should just stop by and submit offers in person.

Guess I was wrong. Just saw DCGREGS link. I hope everything works out good for everyone!

Re: Anybody's offer(s) get accepted by JO?

Apparently mine did not either. Do you think they did this just to see what the market was at and not really sell anything? There is no way someone offered on the same jersey as myself. My offer was reasonable. Why no sale?

Looks like JO is still evaluating the offers.

Apparently, mine didn't.

The whole thing made no sense. JO always is willing to entertain offers anyway so I still am unsure the point of the "special".

Apparently, mine didn't.
