Ebay Mistake?....Really Cool Jersey

[thxforthebp]

Saw this one on eBay sold with a $399 BIN and couldnt believe my eyes. Psa had no idea what they had when it was authenticated, but this looks like it is the same jersey that was sold in the 2001 Legendary auction for $1300.

Guesses at current market value if it came up for auction?

Ebay is the black background
Legendary is the second photo

$400 seems about right. Sheen has signed a lot of stuff. I would expect the value of this jersey to be considerably less than when previously sold in 2001. See links.

The two pictured are the same jersey.

From the 2001 Auction:
"This is the actual jersey worn by actor Charlie Sheen in his role as "Wild Thing" Vaughn during the filming of "Major League II." Sheen's grey knit flannel is lettered "Cleveland" across the chest with "99" on the left front breast and reverse. "Vaughn" is on the reverse above the number. All letters and back numbers are in blue with red trim. Front numbers are in red. A Cleveland Indians patch appears on the left sleeve. An "AIS" manufacturer's label is on the left front tail with an adjacent "44" size tag below. Sheen has signed the jersey on the left breast "Charlie Sheen 12/93 'Major II'" (9/10) in black marker. The jersey was presented as gift by Charlie Sheen to a former Lelands partner who has consigned the jersey directly to this MastroNet auction. The jersey is accompanied by a letter from the former owner detailing the circumstances of how he obtained it. There are a few light stains along the front, otherwise the jersey is in Excellent condition. An attractive display jersey worn by Sheen in one of his most popular film roles. LOA from Dan Knoll and Dave Bushing/MastroNet"

If true, it is one of a kind and not a $400 replica.

This type of Jersey will drop in price in most auctions. Most want real Uniforms of major League players.

Might just be my screen but the jerseys look like different variations to me. One is much lighter than the other and the second photo looks to have an added inscription below Sheen's name that the first photo does not.

Stains are in the same place it appears.

True, many collectors would want actual major league uniforms. However, jerseys worn by actors in movies (especially such movies as Bull Durham, Major League, Field of Dreams, etc) would be a centerpiece. A person doesn't have to be a baseball fan necessarily to love those movies and they wouldn't have to be collectors of game used items to appreciate just how cool a uniform like that is.

I can tell you this much...if I had seen the listing I'd have jumped all over it. That's awesome!!!

Edit: Also, I found the listing. In the other photos an additional inscription is there. Three lines total, same as Mastro. Same jersey.
