ClintA dealer friend told me about a Ty Cobb bat that a man had displayed in a shoe store. He said he offered him some money for it but he didn't want to sell it. I thought about checking it out but never did. A few months later another guy I know bought the bat for $1000. It sold for $40,000 in a Mastro auction a couple years later. I wouldn't have felt right about it anyway as I couldn't afford what would have been a fair offer.
