Sowfest. Who went and what did you get?

Re: Sowfest. Who went and what did you get?

I agree but did they really take the best things that the Sox had to offer.
I think one of those guys had the black Manny jersey and ended putting back after realizing it wasn't even game used. I think all of us got what we wanted.

The only reason more of the good stuff wasn't taken was because the prices were so high that the scammers knew they couldn't turn a profit.

Prime example of Chicago cronyism at it's best

Re: Sowfest. Who went and what did you get?

I bought the Ramirez hat along with Jones, Rios and Quentin bats and a Jenks jersey.

I, too, am sick of seeing the Sox let people in the Garage Sale early in full view of the paying customers who wait hours in line to get in.

I picked up an Andruw Jones blonde B45, Gordon Beckham two tone Hickory and and Alex Rios black LS M9. Very happy with the Andruw Jones find...

Someone picked up a nice Omar Vizquel with great use.....beautiful bat.

Re: Sowfest. Who went and what did you get?

Again, the White Sox garage sale crew allowed early access to a chosen favorite...this time it was a guy who has been affiliated in one manner or another since he was the team's batboy in 1983. He grouped a whole handful of items he wanted on one of the racks, then, as soon as the sale was opened to the non-privileged, grabbed the group and went to the register, making sure no "regular folks" got a chance at them.

Although overall, I feel Soxfest is far superior in most ways to the Cubs Convention, the team's practice of allowing early access to team employees, preferred dealers and people with press credentials in wearing a little thin.

They had a game used St Pats Manny jersey nice use at $1200 a un-used Black at 750 ( no year or set tags which is common on late season additions for the Sox) a GU hat at I believe $250..NO bats or batting helmet.

GU baseballs are always plentiful at $10.00 each and most have the mlb hologram

Re: Sowfest. Who went and what did you get?

1998 Charlie O'Brien BP jersey (trade with hobby dealer set up at the event).

Also saw on the rack a 2010 road jersey of bullpen coach Juan Nieves that was a set 6.
