So they did fold we can assume? 3 months no update, last post on their facebook was 2010.

They also had some interesting game used items. Wonder where those went, I was contemplating one of them.

So what happened with Locker Room memorabilia? I went to the website and was redirected to a jewelry website.

Re: What happened to Lockerroom Memorabilia

Seems a lot of businesses have folded due to the prices they try to get.

They are not folding or having financial troubles so not sure why anyone is thinking that. I am sure you all will hear soon of Emil's new baseball venture.

To the question of prices, they had a sizeable group of clientele that were willing to pay for items of impeccable provenance and most items were MLB Authenticated with photos of the athletes holding their items. There is a cost of being a MLB Licensee which they were and a cost of real items.

I'm not trying to speak for Emil but you usually get what you pay for. There are still plenty of dealers that don't get items direct from the players or direct from the team and you don't know for sure if the item was game issued, game used, game used by another player or a good fake which is why when someone wanted a legit David Wright item they went to Locker Room.

I forwarded this to Emil Bodenstein and I think there will be an announcement soon. Locker Room had a sizeable inventory with impeccable authenticity. We did a lot jointly and I will miss working with that entity led by Emil and his group as Emil truly is a class person.

Sizable inventory due to insanely high, unrealistic prices

Re: What happened to Lockerroom Memorabilia

I sent in some items to MAB Celebrity Services to be signed by David Wright last year. I just received this email last week from them.

"The David Wright signing never occurred due to the fact that the company that represented Wright for his memorabilia was sold and the signing never occurred."

Don't know who bought them maybe someone can find out some more information.

Re: What happened to Lockerroom Memorabilia

I tracked down their phone number from some of my records and it has been disconnected. I'm assuming the worst. Hopefully, Emil is OK, but at this rate it certainly goes beyond web re-design with a roll-out that bombed. I also checked MLB auction as they would list Locker Room as one of their 'brands' and the company is no longer listed there either.

Re: What happened to Lockerroom Memorabilia

Same with me, I noticed it about a week ago, but I thought I was the only one.

Re: What happened to Lockerroom Memorabilia

I went looking for them yesterday as well. Couldn't get the website working.

Did I miss something? Are they still in business?
They're website link is dead.
