Spend most all my time on the hockey boards, but am in the process of moving and with less space for displaying my swag, I thought I'd gauge interest in 2 different GU Red Sox bats I acquired.
My soon-to-be-former neighbor has the contract for moving the Sox to/from the airport for their travels and he's given me various auto'd balls and bats over the years for helping him out. Two items he gave me were a complete (cracked) Varitek bat, as well as a Shea Hillenbrand, from his 02 AS season. The Hillenbrand is auto'd and the break glued back together. This was a home-run bat. As explained by my neighbor, that's the significance of the markings at the bottom of the knob by the 4 x's surrounding his number (29) and the auto reads Shea Hillenbrand, AL All Star 2002, with his number, too.
My neighbor is the guy on the left in this pic:
If there's interest in buying with PayPal, feel free to PM your offer or the ballpark it'd be in. I don't collect baseball, so the only trade items that'd interest me would be higher end Bourque, Thornton, Howe, Orr or Gretzy.
And I'm not looking to sell these in a fire sale; I'm happy to keep them before I'll sell for $25 - just thought a serious baseball guy or gal may like one or both enough to make a deal worthwhile for both of us, rather than move them to the new digs.
Thanks for looking and LMK.
