Championship Shirts

On a serious note before I begin, because of the virus going around, I'm not working as much, therefore not bring anymore income. My current job involves me working events and a lot of events at my job have been postponed. Also, I'm not going to go Burlington, Ross, or anywhere else to keep my contact with people to a minimum. I think I still have a few left in my closet to write about.

I never dreamed I would live in a world were store shelves would be bare, the sports world would stop, and Disneyland would shut down. These are some strange times.

Diamond Era Caps Series

I have a backlog to post on here. Ross has been receiving last seasons Diamond Era Cap and I've been buying them. I almost have the entire set.

I previously bought Yankees and Pirates caps.

Authentic Finds

First off, Sports Authority's clearance sale is now 30%-50% off. I believe it would be a good time to buy licensed merchandise because there is still a good selection of merchandise available. I went yesterday and there weren't any Angels jerseys left. There were still plenty of Ducks, Dodgers, and Chargers licensed gear available.

There are bids to buy some of the stores. We'll see what happens.

Oakland A's Cap

I bought this Oakland A's Team Classic 39THIRTY Cap today at Ross. It was $10 and it normally retails for $30. It will go great with the jersey I bought awhile back.

MLB "Auctions"

With Majestic having a clearance sale, I went to their site and made a customized a Steve Delabar Blue Jays jersey for $120. I hesitated because I would rather buy a jersey that was game used or issued. I headed towards MLB.com and decided to hit up their auction site. Now their auction site has a variety of baseball related memorabilia for sale from game used bases, balls, lineup cards, and of course jerseys.

Each item for sale has a different purchasing option. Some items you can buy now and others have to bid on like a traditional auction.

There are new listings almost every day, you don't know what could show up from day to day. All I wanted was a jersey for a team I didn't own and something that would be a good deal.

I went to http://auctions.mlb.com/ and under categories I clicked jerseys. I then sorted by lowest price because I wanted to spend less than $200. After browsing for about five minutes, I found it:


 It's a game issued Colorado Rockies camo Tyler Chatwood jersey. I remember his short stint with the Angels. This was a buy now item shipped directly from the Rockies for $165.


So after purchased this I went back to the auction site and checked the listings again. The Oakland A's were getting rid of some surplus jerseys for varying amounts. I saw this:


It was a game issued Chad Smith Oakland A's alternate jersey. I am not a big A's fan but I do like the green and the gold. The A's were selling this for $50 and I bought it.

I don't plan on buying anything other jerseys till the Padres have their open house before the season starts. I went two years ago and it was great and I'll post about it when they announce it.
