Goddangit. You guys (and the inclusive households) not only have the most desirous of Mavs game-worn jerseys but also display the requisite appreciation of them and proper observance of protocol. Please correct my memory. Does that sweet Donald Hodge jersey have 35 on the back (geez, was it 28?), and does that ultra-rare Terry Davis have 43?
Given your answer to my question, I'm guessing that you are getting ready to bust out something like a Sweet Lou (21?) or maybe even a Tony Dumas (7?). Wait a minute. I think I just figured it out. I bet your ass is getting ready to acquire a highly coveted Popeye Jones (45?). Damn you. |

 As far as what I may pick up in the next week or so... I would normally not post any specific information about any auction I happened to be currently watching on ebay, because I wouldn't want anybody else to read about the item and bid against me, or possibly (if improbably) alert a seller to my interest, but in this case I can say that I am watching a cheap auction for a pair of game worn, 1980's Jay Vincent game worn bastketball high-tops, that are not listed accurately, and that are a size that I can wear, but it will not break my heart if I lose them. And there's something else coming up that I'm half-looking at, but sadly, it's not Tony Dumas (a Grail jersey that I would find a way to pay almost any price for if I ever saw one- much like my Tarpley), or Popeye (although I saw one of these go for something like $90 two years ago, the week after Christmas, and I have never really forgiven myself for forgetting to check that auction before it ended- because if I had, I would have bid ferociously and probably won the damned thing...)

Also, if you want to see something truly horrible, click on the following link (it's safe, I swear
): http://cgi.ebay.com/Michael-Finley-D...QQcmdZViewItemA Michael Finley game-used jersey for $138 + S&H? ARRRRRGGGGHHH!!!!!! I had this ebay page bookmarked, because I thought the auction might go cheap, but I just didn't think that this jersey would end up being available for under $200 (I've seen GW, authenticated Finley jerseys go for $350-450 in the past), and consequently, I never checked it frequently or stalked the end of the auction. I'd say that getting a game worn Finley for cheaper than an authentic jersey at the AA center is just plain wrong, and I am pretty darned jealous of whoever won the darned thing last week...

It'd be legit if you had those Mavs label tights underneath the shorts. I want a pair.

This addition may not be quite as significant as my recently aquired Obinna jersey, but it will be darned good to play pick-up basketball in. The following is a circa 1994-1997 authentic Champion reversible Mavericks practice jersey that will not hang in a closet like many of my other jerseys, but that I will wear often and greatly abuse on courts of basketball battle...

Dang this addiction... I just went and bought another game-worn jersey...
   1991 Rolando Blackman Game-Worn Green Now, I will say that unless I run across a Shawn Bradley, Tony Dumas, or Roy Tarpley game-worn jersey on ebay sometime over the course of the next month or two, I am not going to even think about making any more purchases of Mavericks history for quite some time to come, and I really wasn't looking to pick up another one so soon after getting my cheap Ekezie. But in the case of the above pictured jersey, I just couldn't help myself... This was the first time I've ever actually seen one of the extremely rare, early 90's green jerseys (the rarest of all Mavs jerseys) go up for auction on ebay, and actually being able to pick up a Rolando Blackman at an affordable price is an opportunity that I just couldn't pass up. I just won the auction for this fella this afternoon as a very, very good price, and I have to say that next to my Big Tarp jersey, this is probably the crown jewel of my collection (or at least it will be once it is shipped to me).

Yeah, evil, there's no way you can pass that up! Hard to tell what's better, though. Blackman or Ekezie.

That is awesome. I love Ro. Is he a free agent?

I swore I wasn't going to buy any more jerseys for a while, but circumstances forced me to break my vow. I just couldn't ignore something like a Mei-Gray authenticated Desagana Diop game-worn '06 NBA Finals jersey that nobody seemed to want to bid on...

it's got nashth, dirty, filthy, wang, najera, little nicky, shawn and others. It's so unique that I really just like it. I have it on the wall at work. I've never found it anywhere else..I've always dreamed of finding a way to get it autographed but I don't think it'll happen. I think I'll try to scan it and post it. neat photo.

I love this thread, you've got an awesome collection EM. Did you happen to see the JET Game Worn Patty's Day jersey that ended on eBay a day or two ago? I was soo close to placing a bid on that haha

It's too bad you didn't go after that JET jersey though. I think it went for around $200, which is obviously a bit pricey, but really isn't that much more expensive than the authentic jerseys which folks buy at the team store, and I'd say it's always best when real fans are able to buy this stuff rather than ebay speculator, non-Mav-fan jackals...

I'm more of an autograph collector, but collect some game used stuff as well. I have a variety of bats, batting gloves, hats, a wristband or two, etc. of baseball game used stuff (pretty much all minor leagues) as well as my prize piece, my Devin Harris playoff game used shoes. I'd love to pick up a game used Mavs jersey in the near future though, we'll see

*Bump*
Dang... I can't believe the whale that I just reeled in on ebay this evening. Now it's been a while since I've added anything new to the old game-worn jersey collection but I'm always watching on ebay, mei-gray, etc... and I'm currently feeling awed and numb after winning the auction pictured down below. This fella is going to be framed in the best mahogany case I can afford and it will probably hang proudly on some wall of mine for the rest of my days (assuming the damned beautiful thing arrives safely via insured mail this week)...

My Top 11 Favorite All-Time Mavs of great significance who I vow I will aquire Game-Worn Jerseys for:
1. Dirk Nowitzki - Check 2. Shawn Bradley 3. Jason Kidd 4. Nick Van Exel 5. Roy Tarpley - Check 6. Michael Finley 7. Jamal Mashburn 8. Jason Terry 9. Rolando Blackman - Check 10. Christian Laettner 11. Jimmy Jackson - Check (and even though I'm not numbering him here because of his Mav's-traitor status, I'll need to get a Nash too, but it's depressing to think about how much that two-time MVP sumfb*tch will end up eventually costing.... ) (with, in no particular order, runner's up game-worn jersey target-candidates being: Chris Gatling/Tony Dumas/George McCloud/Fat Lever/Brad Davis/Cherokee Parks/Gerald Green/Lorenzo Williams/Jim Farmer/Cedric Ceballos/Ed O'Bannon/Popeye Jones/Shawne Williams/Doug Smith/Calvin Booth/Eric Montross/Austin Croshere/Loren Meyer/and others who I am probably forgetting... ) I vow that I will complete this list, and this thread will stand as eternal public testament to that said completion....

I have 2 Dirk Nowitzki Deutschland jerseys (08 olympics authentic, 05-07 FIBA tournament with all patches), Home, Away, Alt green, Glacier Silver.
 I'll take pictures of the rest later.
