Anyone going to the Red Sox yard sale?

Re: Anyone going to the Red Sox yard sale?

Ok, I have the list of what folks are looking for and will be leaving soon. I can't promise anything, but I will look and pick up anything that I find.

I'm not allowed in until 3 pm, so I am assuming it will be pretty picked over by then.

I will be back with any finds and pics as soon as I can.

Just left. Pickings were much slimmer this year. Got a few Jerseys that I will post later in the classifieds

Were there any home plates?

Just got back to the hotel from the yard sale. I'm sorry to report there were no jerseys that anyone was looking for there. I was there 2.5 hours and went through every bin looking for what you guys wanted, sorry I couldn't help you all out. There was one jersey someone asked me to look for, but it just had the name and no number on back. I didn't feel comfortable grabbing it as I wasn't 100% sure if it was the correct player.

As was already posted, it was VERY picked over by the time I got there at 3 pm. I had a Manny Delcarmen jersey in hand, but I passed it over to get a couple of bats. I picked up a beat Ellis Burks bat that has a 24 on the knob and a Josh Reddick that someone wrote on the barrel over his name "Who is John Galt?" I have no idea what that's about, but it's still a pretty cool bat that shows good use.

There were no plates, no big name game used jerseys, not much at all. They did have a pair of seats for $550 which I thought was a good deal. But what prices they did have on game used jerseys were a bit high. They had one Gabe Kapler for $150, which I thought was high. I asked someone there where all the good names were and he said someone came in first thing and bought 70 jerseys. So I assume they were the big guns.

I was hoping that like in years past they would drop the prices near the end, but I was there till almost 5 and the prices stayed the same.

I did take a few pics I will try to get up soon.

Wow, didn't think they'd have any Kapler stuff there. Wish I would have asked someone to keep an eye out for me.

Ah well, c'est la vie.
