Thrifting Flashback for Super Bowl Sunday:
Authentic (with armbands) $3.75
If I had duct tape, I'd tape over the name and write "Decker," but I'll wear it as is for today.

Now, I have been hesitant to add the word "vintage" to my listings. Should I add it? Do you get more traffic adding it? To me its like sellers adding the word "rare" to a base card listing. Thoughts?
I usually add vintage if is about 20 years old or order.
Not a thrift store purchase but inspired by this thread. I just moved into a new house in May. Neighbor has an old barn. She was giving me a tour and there was a baseball bag full of bats, jock strap, cup, cleats etc. I commented on the bag being out of place and she said it belonged to her ex son on law and had been there about ten years. She offered the bag to me and I tried to decline but she was insistent that she wanted it out of there. I checked ebay and a couple of the bats sell for a few bucks. Listed the first two and they sold for $25 and $15. Still have about eight more to list. I'll be taking good care of my neighbor for sure! I think she has a nice bottle of wine in her future!

Paged through this thread at 2 am last night for the first time and had to go try my luck at a store today.
Spent $8.75 and got one of these or at least looks real similar
http://www.ebay.com/itm/San-Diego-P...7?pt=US_Baseball_Fan_Shop&hash=item460fc884f5
and a Athletics Holloway kids Jacket that I can't find anything online to compare to. Will get scans up today.

I also passed on a lot that I was going to look up when I got home but have now forgotten. One was a little kids Kobe jersey but it had some snags and didn't have Bryant on the back or anything.

Had a cool antique store find yesterday in Kentucky.
It's a WW1 era bat by Louisville Slugger that is stamped by the YMCA. Apparently, these were sent to the servicemen overseas during WW1 and never made available to the general public. Found only one other one sold on Worthpoint for just over $100. I got mine for around $35.

Googled the Bama jersey and came up with a name of Sean Keeler? I don't know for sure though.
Either way, it's cool.

Grabbed a rally towel/rag/hankey for my school for $.50.
I like grabbing them when I see them.

Yes I believe thats whose it is. Same style as the jerseys they wear based on image search pictures of the team playing.
