Wording it as such it gives the impression that it is a professional modal bat used by Crawford. So what happens here is an experienced bat collector will only bid on the bat up to what the bat is really worth, but a novice may think that he or she is getting a great deal on a Crawford game used bat and bid higher.

The fact that the seller references a sale of a Crawford bat at $50,000 or whatever it was tells you he is trying to entice the buyer to spend more than what it is worth

So if the certificate said "Store Model Bat" then the buyer would be so warned
