May pick-ups

Re: May pick-ups

here's a different Mj Bulls road from a different year, but with the same flaws. This one's a 1996-97, properly sized, but with the same NOB drop and spacing problems.




By contrast, this photo is the October 1993 SI cover regarding MJ's retirement. Almoswt assuredly a 1992-9 season photo, this displays what the back ofan MJ Bulls jersey SHOULD look like.

Re: May pick-ups

I feel horrible reading all of this. I am fairly new to this great hobby. When situations like this happen is there any recourse? Does it depend on the source auctioning it??

What is your email Dave?

My email is sox83cubs84@hotmail.com .

No need to email now unless you want to, though, as a couple of collectors who posted after me summed up my opinion of your MJ jersey to a T. I just was trying to avoid putting you on the spot publicly, as this was an item you bought believing it to be a gamer, not an item you were trying to sell to an unsuspecting buyer

Re: May pick-ups

not trying to offend or be a d**k but 92/93 bad year for road jordan's.. spacing of NOB is off,,spacing tween NOB and top of 23 off.. spacing between 2 and 3 in front to tight.. spacing tween top of 23 and bottom of "bulls" is off as is spacing of top of bulls and neckline.... Im in no way an expert on MJ gamers ,, far from it,, just my opinion and this caught my eye right away,,, there are waaay more qualified MJ people that are forum members,,, perhaps they could chime in

Ouch, I hate it esp when a GUU member purchases something like this. Mickey is correct, this jersey is not legit. I spotted this MJ jersey in HA's auction site a month ago and knew right away the spacing on the front and NOB placement made this a dud. Even with any LOA from the Nets, I don't care! I also corresponded with another MJ jersey collector, who is also a member on here, and also confirmed my thoughts.

I've often found in the last 3 or so yrs that when there's MJ "game worn" jerseys on HA's auction site, I've emailed Mike there and explained to him my reasoning on why they are mostly duds. I got yelled at the first time for mentioning them on this forum without emailing them first, so from that point on I email them and respectively and nicely, try to point out the problems. Most of the time they keep the jersey in their auction citing a Lampson or some other LOA as "proof" and I just go on my merry way. I've done my due diligence and it's their prerogative if they decide to keep the auction piece in there.

Again, I really wish auction houses would get over this "LOA" thing and stop trusting them 100% and do ZERO due diligence on their end. But I'm sure they are busy with auction setup/etc, but I think it's worth it in the end to all collectors and the hobby.

Good luck my friend!

Matt Kemp 2012 Rawlings: Opening Day HR Bat

Just a killer bat with pounded barrel, heavy pine tar at the center label and caked mota stick over the handle.
The exciting part was photomatching it to Opening Day in San Diego when Kemp had two hits, including his first home run of the season, a two-run shot in the 8th inning.

Re: May pick-ups

Heres some more Game worn Hockey for everybody. Picked these up not to long ago. We should start an offical thread on here.

I was fortunate enough to pick back up 2009-2010 Stanley Cup Championship Season Norris Trophy Winner Helsinki Finland Duncan Keith Blackhawks jersey. Light use as expected for this two gamer jersey. It has a photo matched unrepaired hole on the left sleeve.

2010-2011 Blk Alt Patrick Sharp jersey. It was his only one used during the 11 games played that season. This style is no longer used by the Hawks. Photo matched to burs on the right sleeve. Jersey consists of puck marks, board burns, etc..

1995 Robin Ventura jersey. Shows lots of wear and photo matched I believe to cards and photos off of Getty.
