2011 Marucci. One of the most pounded and tarred Posada's I have ever seen. Used From April 30th to May 6th. Photomatched. MLB Authenticated and Steiner.

2011 LVS. Again, Absolutely hammered with use and tons of Tar. Photomatched to a Homerun against the Red Sox on 9/25/11 used all the way to the last at bat in the ALDS. Photomatched to the HR and the triple he hit in the playoffs. Could be the last bat EVER used by Posada!

Cool bats. Only thing is that for $600, I'd expect the guy to be a sure-fire HOFer. Posada was good, but we're not talking megastar here.

That must have been fun to look at the warehouse, even if most of the stuff was priced way too high. Any other items of note?

Les, they had so many items it shocked me to see it all. Racks upon racks of jerseys, Jeter, Arod, Cano etc...... it was amazing. Bats all over the place, the warehouse has two floors, the first is regular items such as signed baseballs and photos etc but the top floor is exclusively game used. Jerseys as far as the eye can see and boxes full of bats. The jeter bats where really cool to see as well, probably the most "noteworthy" items there but i felt uneasy holding a bat with a price tag equivalent to a month of nyc rent!

I am not sure anyone actually paid 600 for a Posada bat only. Those that did plunk down 600 got a bat with a 150 or less value for free, which is where most of the Eduardo Nunez and Russell Martin bats went! And, after a couple of weeks they were moving all the bats at 30% off.

That's good to hear that they weren't gouging people as badly, though it shocks me that Steiner would even mark up some of the bats that high. Then again, some have an obsession with sticks used by their favorite players.

That's amazing. Though I think that Steiner could make more money if they marked down a few of those Jeter or A-Rod jerseys. Most of us can't afford to pay those prices for used sticks of wood or articles of clothing.
