Game-used MLB balls

[Runscott]

Thanks for that information, Brock - makes my plan sound like the most viable for this sort of thing, and we could also include a ticket stub in the deal.

Yes, I could have gotten a cheaper one, but I thought it was good to get one from the game I was at. Also, I doubt I could have gotten a double - singles are pretty easy. I'm not sure that doubles always go for the same as a single, but I had been talking with the guy for quite a while and he might have cut me a slight deal - the same ball was also hit for a double by Morales and Cano also scored a run off that hit. Outs or fouls are simple to find and cheap. If I decide to sell the game-used bat, a double will probably help the price quite a bit.

Not a bad idea Scott. I wasn't ignoring you in my thread of for sale game used balls either. I'm just in a sell sell sell mode, not trade. Hope you're well.

Thanks Jason. I was trying to give you a bump, but when I do that I always try to say something 'useful'. The bump idea gave me the idea for game-used balls, not vice-versa. Also - I'm not thinking 'trading', more like using others on the board as middlemen for picking up stuff. These balls are VERY unpredictable - it's possible, for instance, that you could play an entire 3-game series and never see a ball that a particular player hit. If it's the 3rd out, they end up in the stands, and most fouls end up in the stands anyway. For a ball to end up at the team store, it pretty much has to be thrown in the dirt at some point. For instance, mine was still in the game after two doubles, but then got thrown in the dirt to Kyle Seager and was removed. It could just as easily have been fouled into the stands and then I would have never gotten it.

Hey there Scott,

I've Never been aware of Anything like this! Sounds like the 3 inning wait Really Paid off for You... Congratulations Man!

You mention'd a "Cano Bat"? Am I correct in reading it the same way? You Bought a Cano Bat that He Hit a Double with!? Can You PLMK if I got this Right? You Purchased a "Robby Cano Bat" that He Hit a Double with right from the Ball Park... The Day He Hit it? If So, what did that Run You?(If Ya don't mind me askin'!)

WoW ... How Cool iS That!!!
