$0

You have to be real careful when buying dust off the street in little pouches.....You never know if it's the real stuff.

Even if it is it could be cut with some fake filler and you might not be getting the 100% real deal. There could be some new Louisville Slugger Dust in that stuff too. You gotta be careful,

Stay clean...

I foresee a thread in about 6 months discussing whether a game-used Jackson bat was "doctored" or created from the little bags of game-used sawdust...

Not worth a dime to me. At one time (assuming it is legit) it was an incredible piece of baseball history. It's now worthless to me.

Of course I could buy it, split it into two bags of sawdust and double my money...

ChiSoxFan - it's amazing how much time that guy spent in his description making sure everyone looking at the listing knows just who Joe Jackson is.

PS I'm a Sox fan too & a bit nervous about KW rebuilding this team.

Ditto. I find your last sentance interesting though. If there were a buyer for this dust how much do they require? Is 1 oz worht $100 and therefore 1/2 oz is only worth $50. Where is the supply/dmd inflection point. Can I sell 1/10th of an oz for $100 as easily as 1 oz?

I chose $0 but would have picked $.25 in honor of Leon's ubiquitous quarter but the choice was not available.
all the best,

For argument: 40 oz original bat, worth $50,000 - that's $1,250/ounce. Break-even for the seller at $100/'vile' is under 1/10 ounce.

The good news: highly unlikely it came from a Jackson bat, or even from a bat.

Wouldn't buy it for any price. By paying anything for this type of stuff only encourages more destruction of these allegedly historical relics.
