why is this $43?

[ooo-ribay]

seems like at least $43 more than I would pay.

[roarfrom34]

at least they admitted it was used....:p

So apparently there is a market for vintage jock straps.

Which doesn't surprise me. I'm not ashamed to say that I once bought an unopened box of feminine napkins from the 1950s and sold them on ebay for nearly $200.

High proof alcohol or hemp must have been involved in this eBay listing.
Game used, eh?

I agree! Just when you thought things couldn't get any crazier! :eek:

What's next, a fan running onto a playing field trying to steal one? :D

I purchased a lot of game used Husker football jerseys, pants and even jock straps all as a lot at a local auction last year. Maybe I shouldn't have thrown away the jock straps? I didn't even check to see if they were "collectible".

WOW...as of now there are 483 vintage jock straps for sale.

I just can't imagine collecting them. Do they get them graded? :)

ps, btw, the title of this thread is somewhat intriguing ....

You just gave PSA an idea for their newest venture. Graded jock straps.

I could not resist looking at the list of athletic supporters and the first one had me cracking up.

Ughhh. I've been avoiding this thread for several days because I thought it had to do with how to display your baseballs (which I don't collect) but I finally succumbed just because I loved the title. Now I wish I hadn't.
