    Re: Official Chicago White Sox GU

    Does anyone here know how/where I can buy a weekend pass to Soxfest without buying the hotel package? And I don't mean a Saturday or Sunday pass, because I just want to check the garage sale on Friday.

    Since I'm not looking for any high end item, the hotel package cost would make any purchase I make at the garage sale likely be more than double the price I might pay for the item(s). In fact the last few garage sales I attended, there was hardly anything from Rienzo to buy. Maybe since he was traded, will they put out for sale whatever they have left?

      Only way is the hotel package. Best bet is to find someone going and pay the extra for it. I am ordering mine this week.

        I can get a pass but it will be 100. I already have 2 and the hotel charges $20 extra per night if I get the 3rd pass because they charge me like you are staying in the room as well. Same goes for a 4th because they charge the same rate per night.

          Hef35, I am very interested in purchasing the weekend pass. I'm the guy that let you know about the Sale, Abreu, etc. signings. Please email me at twarman17@yahoo.com.

          I was going to purchase a Sat/Sun pass but strongly prefer the weekend pass if you have an extra available.

          Thanks!

            Here is a quick pick of the Dunn bats I picked up at the garage sale.

                I'm looking for any GU/GI items, which for Rienzo probably means jerseys, pants, nameplate, and maybe hats, which I haven't found one yet. I only picked up two items during this past holiday sale: a 2013 GI home jersey, and a GI locker nameplate. I think he kept some of his jerseys/hats, or the team is really slow in releasing his items, because in the past 4 garage sales, I only found issued jerseys, with the exception of the St. Patrick's day jersey/pants that were GU.

                Someone I met at the previous sales said he is going to keep an eye for jerseys. If you are willing to pick up anything else you may find, I would really appreciate it.

                    I got the jersey but passed on the hat. The starting bid was $125, and I believe it was listed twice with no bid.

                        This was a pretty good sale for oddball stuff, however. Tons of autograph balls for $5 and autographed pictures for $2. Also picked up a signed 2007 team ball for $30.
                        Nice price on the seats, mad I missed it.

                        Someone on Twitter posted a Bo Jackson signed ball they found for $5.

                          I grabbed an Adam Eaton Phoenix bat. MLB authenticated, broken against Core Kluber on April 13th, 2014.

                          Also picked up a pair of Conor Gillaspie UA cleats, and Alex Rios Nike cleats, both of which I was able to style match.

                          Grabbed some autograph baseballs I didn't have in my collection. Matt Davidson and Andre Reinzo, both MLB authenticated, $5 each.
                          Any chance you would sell or trade the Eaton bat.

                            Picked up this Chris Sale Salem Winston Salem Jersey the other day. The Coa has it listed as a bp jersey but it also says it was worn in game action. I have also found a photo of the team wearing them in games and attatched a pic of Sale wearing #14.
