      Just stumbled across this auction from the thief who screwed me a year ago on a bat rack. Looks like his 100 % perfect feedback has taken quite a hit due to his shady dealings...

        It also looks like he's retiring from the bat rack biz.

          If you read the auction description in the auction, it appears MVANDOR may have hit the nail on the head:

          This is the last rack I will do. I just dont have the time right now so what it goes for it goes for. ...

            It funny, I read this thread August of last year and thanked Vintage for the heads up. I then proceeded to forget about it and ordered two racks from Jessie in June of this year. Two weeks later they were on my door step no problem. Nicest bat racks Ive used. Sucks some of you had bad dealings...

              Oh, you can tell that he does nice work. My issue is, when you send something through the mail, package is correctly so that it doesnt get damaged. If you fail to package it correctly and it gets damaged, replace it. If you offer to pay for the repair materials, pay for them - dont back out. That's where the problem came in. He didnt ship it correctly and when it got damaged, he didnt make good on it.

                  can someone email me the specs on this type of rack? what are the radius, how far apart are the mounts? one of the men in men's ministry of my church does woodwork and i am going to ask him to make some. he has done all the wood details for the worship center and they are great. depending on how they look, i will start selling them. oldz70@yahoo.com.

                    The jersey case is from Hobby Lobby. They are 140 bucks but they are 1/2 price every other week or so. Got it for 70 bucks. I bought some screw hooks from walmart (1.10 for 10) Screwed one into the top by hand. Put the jersey on a regular hanger, flipped the hanger around and hung it by the bottom straight of the hanger. It keeps the jersey shoulders stiff.

                    I can get you specs tomorrow night. I do have an extra 2 bat rack of the same oak and specs.
