Authentic Kubel Jersey?

Re: Authentic Kubel Jersey?

I guess I don't know what more I can do other than to just keep them. I know that I picked them up from Target Field on Wednesday, but I guess prior to that, I don't know where they originated. I believe that the guy I got them from is trustworthy and wouldnt do it, but who knows.


Bryan, you seem to have some sort of problem with me, which is your choice I guess. I try very hard to do the right things, but I guess you see it differently.

(And yes, my real name is Jesse as you seem to feel the need to bring up. I was banned before for calling a moderator a "board nazi". It was a mistake on my part and never should have said it. I will probably get banned again now. Thanks.)

What can you do? I guess you could send it back to your "source" or sell it as something other than game used. But that is for you to decide.

I have no problem with any one in this hobby. Everyone who collects game used items are people who enjoy the game, the history of the game, and to a certain extent being close to the game. I respect that. What I have a problem with is items that enter the hobby that are not what they truly are. I have spent nearly 20 years studying, enjoying, and collecting Twins and only Twins game used jerseys. So you will have to forgive me if I get a little annoyed when something I know is false is said to be true.

Someone there bought a Thome jersey from the original seller on Ebay.

Location: Duluth, MN/Superior, WI I pulled the trigger on the last Thome. The seller accepted my offer, and for the price -of a future HOF player no less - it will be worth it.

Twice on this forum I have warned about that jersey. VA should be ashamed of themselves. But I get it. Action houses adds legitimacy meanwhile allowing collectors to sell junk while keeping their reputation.

Just by looking at those tags you can tell that it probably wasn't used. They look like brand new.

Bryan, It does appear that maybe I was taken here. I know you don't believe I have a "source", but I do and he has provided me with many great bats over the past couple years. Several of which have been photomatched.

Anyway, in light of the information you have brought up, I will be trying to return these to him. I would never want to sell something to someone that isnt what I believe it to be.

There's no way I would have listed them as game used in the first place if I didnt believe they actually were. They look proper and show use. But again, you bring up information that leads me to believe that they may not be.

I appreciate your help with this.
