Re: Rawlings Display 'Stitch' Ball

WOW!!!

Overwhelming response!!!

If everyone who has already asked or said they want one pays (three have been paid for already), then I ONLY have 2 left for sale as of this writing.

It is 11:45am in Denver, CO (MDT) and I am heading back out to work.

I will follow up (in order) with any further inquiries.

A few people have asked questions but not committed to buying yet, I have included you in the '7' I am expecting are sold, but if I get serious inquires and offers before the day is out without hearing from you, I will be moving these balls.

Just being honest and upfront here.

All the best -

Chris

Re: Rawlings Display 'Stitch' Ball

DONE!!!

The last one was committed to and I have a standing offer for whatever doesn't get committed to or paid for at the end of the day.

So if you sent an inquiry already, PLEASE let me know if you are committing to buying it or they will be gone.

All the best -

Re: Rawlings Display 'Stitch' Ball

Okay -

Just got home from work and here's what I have so far:

Goh Nishiyama - 3 balls (PAID)
Ryan Woods - 1 ball (PAID)
Ron Samiano - 1 ball (PAID)
John Lind - 1 ball (PAID)
Joel Sabalza - 1 ball (Pending)
Andrew Tilley - 1 ball (Pending)
Troy Kinunen - 1 ball (Pending)

That's all 9 guys!

I will search my stuff to see if I have any more, but I think that's it! I contacted my buddy who worked at Rawlings with me and he no longer has any left either, so these are it!

Thanks to the buyers who have committed/purchased these balls!

All the best -

Chris

Re: Rawlings Display 'Stitch' Ball

Mine arrived, it's awesome, thanks Chris.

Quick question: How exactly were these displayed originally with the stitching? Was the thread wrapped around the needles or sort of loose and hanging off (wanted to set it up to best show the process).

Just like it came.

When we were ready to show how to stitch a ball, we pulled the needles, unwrapped the threads and wrapped damp sponges over the unstitched leather to make it soft and pliable.

Then we put them in the clamp on the chair and started the stitching process...

All the best -

Chris

P.S. I bought a silver napkin ring at Cost Plus and just et the ball in it to display it!

Re: Rawlings Display 'Stitch' Ball

Chris,

My Rawlings Display 'Stitch' baseball arrived today, and it is great! It is visually stunning and will make for a great conversation piece. Also, you did a fantastic job of using a foam pad to reduce the risk of possibly touching the needles while removing the baseball out of the box. Thank you for that consideration!

I hope the other lucky Forum members are just as pleased with their baseball as I am.

Kind Regards,

Ron.
