    Question about ebay seller 13alexrodriguez

    Anyone ever dealt with him? Sure seems like he has a lot of Rawlings game used issued gloves.

    I saw that. The Biggio glove that he is selling looks stitched a bit weird. It's almost as if Biggio is stitched higher than Craig, and it looks a little off.

    Something about that seller makes me nervous, especially his propensity to offer items via private auctions.

      I've been looking for fielding gloves and have noticed this as well. I only want game used so it's not an issue, but something's not kosher here. Although, at least he's not doctoring them and selling them as game used.....

        If you do a search there is I believe a few threads on him.

        In my own personal opinion. I think he is a reputable to the best of his ability dealer.

          I bought a Tyler Colvin Reebok from him. No idea if it's actually legit or not as I have no way to tell.

            I did a search on him and only one other thread came up. Thanks!

              I purchased an Carlos Delgado game issued bat autographed to Luis Castillio while they were teammates with the Marlins from this seller.

              No problems and item was just as described.

                you may have only gotten one result because he has changed his ebay ID several times. Just check his ebay ID history, I think you may find a coulpe more threads.

                  I am always suspicious of sellers that need to change their IDs. What's the compelling reason, unless you are hiding from someone?

                      I went through Getty Images, and these were the only two pictures where I could make out the stitching of Craig Biggio's name. However, neither of the gloves had stitching at the angle of the glove shown by 13alexrodriguez. The one one on eBay seemed to not have the first and last name stitched evenly.

                      Biggio photo two



                      13alexrodriguez "game issued" glove on eBay.

                      Let me know what you think.

                        What do I think?

                        I think instead of continuing to try to defame this seller and his glove, did it ever dawn on you to forward your concerns and also seek additional photos of the glove and specifically the embroidered name from him?

                        Your shoot first and aim later approach on this site grows extremely old.

                          I do agree with Howard that the embroidery could be a result of the angle of the picture. I have a bigger concern, and it is the lack of circular Rawlings logo on the outside of the pocket/webb on the Biggio glove in the Getty picture that is present on the ebay glove. Obviously, the laces could have been restrung in black so the difference in lace color doesn't matter much to me.

                            Just some stats. 37 game issued gloves all made by Rawlings. 8 of the 37 are Alex Rodriguez game issued gloves. 29 gloves are other player's gloves.

                            Are these truly game issued gloves and how were they acquired? There are a lot of Rawlings game issued gloves on eBay currently and many are by other sellers.

                            There was a similar disscussion about Cal Ripken Rawlings gloves that were embroidered and looked like the type Cal used on the field.

                              Well just to let know for this seller he changed his name from mannyramirez to alexrodriguez because he was selling a lot of manny's items but is now selling primarily arods items so it made sense for him to change his name for marketing reasons
