Re: Please post pics of your Tin Martinez bats....

It's great to see "another" GUU witch hunt, I think before anyone calls John Taube a "so-called professional" it would be a good idea to contact John whom by the way is one of the best in the buisness and ask him about the bat before you speculate or insinuate. The beat goes on.....unfortunately.

Hi George,

I think Joe is just trying to look out for a fellow member.

I did not say anything bad about JT. I have heard lots of good about him. We are all human and subject to make an error here or there.

I was contacted by another member (other than Joe) who saw my Tino and questioned the knob writing.

I will contact him now. I have been pretty busy with other things or I would have done so already.

Thank you!

Re: Please post pics of your Tin Martinez bats....

Davd,

I understand your concerns and you have every right to ask and seek advise if your are uncomfortable with something. My comments were directed to the quick to judge comments of others, it seems to be a more and more frequent event here on the forum as of late and it's unfortunate, no one seems contacts the sellers before they bad mouth. I did speak to John and he was not aware of the situation as no one had contacted him, unable to respond himself at this time (out of office) he asked me to do so on his behalf. John said he was very sorry for any harm this situation had caused and for the buyer of this bat to please call his office and he will correct the situation right away. I have known John for many years and he is a true professional and a great person .No worries....

George-
I have never joined any of the mudslinging on this forum and will not now.I did not insinuate anything about Mr.Taube...However,the question remains-how could a ball stamping like that be missed-It took me all of 2 seconds looking at it to realize that it was not from a Major League Baseball,and yet the bat was sold as a Tino Martinez gamer.I didn't even comment on the incorrect 24,as it simply could've been labelled by a bat boy,clubhouse attendant,etc.All I'm saying is that if someone is a noted professional,well,even they are not infallible.I never even said he wouldn't do the right thing by Dave-it just goes without saying to always do your homework because NOBODY-I don't care who it is-is correct 100% of the time.
And by the way,all I was trying to do was help Dave figure out what he's got there.

Re: Please post pics of your Tin Martinez bats....

Hi guys,

I sent Mr Taube an email this morning. I am in no great hurry to get it resolved.

I am hoping the bat is good. I just wanted some re-assurance that the bat is good. To be able to view other bat writing samples. Maybe it was written by a Equipment Mgr. As far as the ball mark I am not sure?

I will try and take a close up pic of the mark and see what all of you and Mr. Taube think.

If not then I am sure JT will make it good. As George says he is a Professional and is well known in the game used bat collecting community.

George, thanks for talking to Mr. Taube about my bat.

Joe, thanks for all your help with the minor league fact checking and concern.

I am sure Joe does not mean any harm towards Mr. Taube.

Hi Everyone,

Here is the pics of the ball mark.....

Any ideas?

Is it possible to be that a non OMLB got into a batch of BP balls?

Re: Please post pics of your Tin Martinez bats....

I just spoke with Mr. Taube and he was very pleasant and professional.

He offered a refund or exchange!

He thinks the bat is good and the presence of a minor league ballmark does not mean anything negative. Also, a player does not always write the numbers on the bats. I agree.

I will keep the bat.

Thanks for all your help.

I would still like to see other pics of Tino bats.

Re: Please post pics of your Tin Martinez bats....

I almost forgot to mention, I used to own a Toby Hall bat that had an International League ball mark on it.

It is pictured on the this forum awhile back.

Your welcome. All I have is the one bat, thanks to JT Sports.

TFIG has/had a game used glove of his. I don't if he sold it. I know he posted pics on the forum.

I don't understand why this thread has not been moved to Game Used Memorabilia where it belongs. No one has responded to my email either.

This thread is about a players game used bats. No general discussion there.

Please move this back to where it belongs!!

Re: Please post pics of your Tino Martinez bats....

if I saw this thread earlier, I wouldn't have made the other about Tino's items so maybe we should combine all those here.

I'd love to see a Tino game used jersey from his playing days, especially the tagging.
