Smitty.
Thanks for the note.
But it's not just the hot rookie that the highest bid goes to.
I asked about the Cano jersey which had a bid/offer on it for $1,500 and was told if I could up the bid to $2,000 I would then be the highest bidder.
I can send you the e-mail my rep sent me on this.

Re: 2012 ALL STAR Game Worn Batting Practice Jerseys

All -

I wrote my rep (Jim Bowley) and referred him to this thread and asked about having a jersey 'locked up' or the jerseys all going to highest bidder.

Here is his response:

Generally what we do is offer them out to the folks who bought a particular player previously
If a real hot rookie makes it or something we have no choice really but to give it to the person who offers the most
But we do not generally get involved in that We try our best to get them to you at the best price possible
The only problem we run into is that we have several guys here who work on these and they may beat me to the punch on one but I try hard
I am waiting to see from another rep if the person who bought XXXX last year is going to do so again this year

So the reps are talking to each other.

If you don't think i'm correct and under the impression you have a jersey locked up.
Why has The Natural whom I see has an e-mail from then Highland Mint (rep/employee) not responded to confirm either way?

Hummm??????

Pablo

I didn't buy a jersey and not saying that stuff didn't happen in your experience; it just didn't happen in mine.

Re: 2012 ALL STAR Game Worn Batting Practice Jerseys

Also BTW - I wasn't the only one that the highest bidder story was told to.
I received e-mails from other GUU members that got the same story I got.
Pablo

Pablo I will contact them again tomorrow to see what the deal is. I appreciate your help.

Call and check on that Jose Fernandez jersey.
As per my Rep Kirk Wands all jersey's are up for grabs to the highest bidder.
I just wanted everyone to be aware.

Pablo I know I am right because of the fact that I missed out on the jersey I wanted (Jose Fernandez) and The Natural was my rep. There was no bidding back and forth and so on, just first come, first served. Now this is not to say that what you are saying isn't true simply to acknowledge that my experience (as apparently was that of the two other forum members you mentioned) was different than yours.

Re: 2012 ALL STAR Game Worn Batting Practice Jerseys

I agree. But if are set with the price you shouldn't have to worry about being outbid on it.
Pablo

Agreed Thats BS if thats the case....

Re: 2012 ALL STAR Game Worn Batting Practice Jerseys

That wasn't my experience at all. I e-mailed him and when I mentioned the one I wanted was SOLD, he offered me an alternative jersey from the WBC but no option to get the jersey I wanted for a higher price.

Same experience for me. Definitely no auction setting, or a going back and forth on which buyer puts up the highest dollar amount.
