I have a couple hundred Giants gamers, but I'm a Giants collector. You seem to pick up a lot of "lesser name" GU stuff and I wonder why (not that Beltre or Stanton are scrubs). Truly....I respect your collection....just curious.  |
I don't mind you asking at all.-- Believe it or not, I mostly collect vintage bats. I buy very little modern stuff because it really doesnt interest me much. I've recently been able to buy Beltre and Stanton bats which is why you've seen a lot from them. They are two of my favorite active players. I live in TX and get to see Beltre play everyday and it's an absolute treat. Stanton is a little different because I think he has such upside and is still very young. I'm also from the KC area so I'm a sucker for 80's Royals jerseys.
I don't buy for resale, because I sell very little of my items to begin with. I just buy what I like to collect, just for the fun of it.
