Default Not a lot of bat for $5k

A work colleague of mine who has a big heart and wallet but doesn't know memorabilia prices attended a Seattle Seahawks charity event this week and bid on and won a non game used, autographed, Marriucci bat of Nelson Cruz for $5k!

Now, I know that the cash is benefiting the charity which is very good but this fellow believes he has an investment piece, in that Nellie may make the HOF one day. I can show him Cruz bats on EBay and Goldin etc that were game used and sold for $200-$500 but it wouldn't convince him that he massively overpaid.

It got me thinking....what HOF or major star player bats (game used or not) with the player autograph have recently sold for less than $5k? What could this fellow have purchased in theory, for his money? Would love to see some links.

A few months ago a non-autographed Cal Ripken Jr. GU 10 bat went for a little over $5k. Personally, I'd just take the Jeter bat below.

I have a game-used Cruz HR bat (436' blast from 2015) that is photo-matched, and I have no intention of having him ever sign it. It's probably only worth $600-1000 on ebay, or a little more through an AH.

But your friend did a great thing for charity and he should just think of it that way.

Agreed. It was an amazing gesture of support.

I have an earlyish Bonds LS bat I got for $300. Criss cross tape, great use, number on knob, etc. Bonds later surprised the crap out of me by signing it at a Spring Training game.

He's not in the HOF. YET..........
