Me too, I fail to see the boost.
If I follow the chain correctly, the winner paid nearly $8000 for a glove that may have been used by Mantle but was for sure used by Tresh. Billy paid nearly a quarter of a million for a glove purported to be game used from the magical '61 season which most believe was from much later in the decade. It's going to be tough to give that a boost at those prices, right?
I have always thought the game-used niche suffered from a tad of euphoric-wishful-thinking.
