Re: Dealing with GU reps for ASG items

Ok Stanton was 3k..wow. So at least we know what he went for. What about the other guys who were in the Derby?? Learned my lesson on these jerseys last year but actual HR Derby jerseys are a lot better then the BP jerseys players wear in the cage for a few swings ( both on Derby day and AS game day)

I cannot understand giving those prices when hof players items, legends even, can be bought instead.

Re: Dealing with GU reps for ASG items

I just heard the Stanton is at 3000, and the Trout is at.....
$6K

I hope whoever is getting the trout at that price realizes it's not the white jersey he won the MVP in but just the BP he wore for 5 mins in the club house to say he wore it.

Wow. Yeah, the $4500 quote was BEFORE the AllStar game.

Anyone go after Abreu, trout McXutchen or Tulo? I wonder where they ended up.

My last quote for Trout was at $4500. It started at "around $3000" and last year was $2000.

Has anyone inquired about or purchased any Futures Game gear through HM?

I was told Abreu was upwards of 3K. I picked up the Chris Sale.

Re: Dealing with GU reps for ASG items

Very pleased with my transaction with Steve, got the jersey I really wanted for less than I expected to pay. I picked up the Devin Mesoraco BP jersey, anxiously awaiting it's arrival

Hey everybody. Boy what a great derby and game. Now that it's all over who got what jerseys? Curious to know a range of what collectors paid highland mint for derby jerseys and BP jerseys. Just curious

Re: Dealing with GU reps for ASG items

I must be lucky as well because i got mine for right in the middle of what i was quoted. I dealt with Jim and this is my 3rd transaction with no issue. I wonder if the jerseys that fluctuated were the 10 players in the derby?

Others have had similar experiences to mine.

From what I gather, multiple reps are selling the jerseys- with each earning commission. If they up the price, they are the credited seller and get the commission.

I think that's why each rep keeps upping the price to be the seller of record.

Another GUU member was I contact with highland mint for the better part of a year and change and was told 700, then 1000 and said yes both times. Now he's out of the running. I believe it was for a Phillies jersey.

Nope- not only players in derby.

Re: Dealing with GU reps for ASG items

I will say that Steve has helped me obtain the jersey that I wanted. Told me it was mine, when it would ship and when I should expect it to arrive. Paid for today and everything. He quoted me a direct price for a jersey of one of my favorite players and that is the price I paid. No hassle or raising of the bid any. I may have gotten lucky on the player but those are just the given factual details.

Despite the problems earlier with another player's jersey, I am very happy with the new addition to my collection.

Re: Dealing with GU reps for ASG items

I don't get it, are collectors so desperate for ASG items that they are willing to overlook the entire situation that has been laid out in this thread? It seems obvious to me that this "sale" isn't on the up and up and yet that doesn't bother some collectors, wow.

I could not agree more. Some people just do not care about ethics and do not care how they are treated.
