My great experience with steiner sports

[Sheffield11]

I just bought a david wright GU bat from brett (bfriedman@steinersports.com) at steiner sports. brett was very helpful and even sent me pics of several bats.he also gave me a great price and fast shipping. will post pics when i get the bat tomorrow.

BTW the bat is Wright's actual own model not the CB15 but the DW5.

For some reason i really love the look of the marucci bats. My favorite bat i think i have ever seen is the david wright maroon HR bat followed by the photomatched beltran bat. They are some sweet pieces and i would love to ad one to my collection some day. Im looking forward to seeing the bat.

Nice another Wright.Is it cracked or broken??Can not wait to see pics...Zookerman are you talking about my Beltran and Wright :D

[Sheffield11]

Here are the pics, bat is pounded, but broken. so you know why he stopped using it.

i think i may be talking about your bats. They are freakin amazing. Drop me an e-mail if you dont mind at brewergamer28@yahoo.com

Nice wright sheffield! Definately some ball marks and ink transfers there and authentication wise its unbeatable. Beautiful bat!

What did it set you back? I want a blonde marucchi to add to my collection and want it broken...Email me at dcrules01@msn.com and who you spoke with at Steiner Sweet awesome baT...

[Sheffield11]

It was only $500. Heres brett's (the steiner guy) email, bfriedman@steinersports.com. i believe he is away til 9/4 but will still be checking emails. i know that he has one other broken wright GU bat for $500. it doesnt have as much pine tar but the use is solid and its a model CB15. The brake starts on the lower handle and goes through the knob. i still have the pics he sent me. i can email you if you are interested.

[dcrules01]

yes email me

Wasn't David Wright a Locker Room Memorabilia exclusive? Did they have a falling out? Or did Steiner strike a deal with Wright and LRM because they now sell all the Mets items?

Not 100% percent sure, but i think i had to do with the new mets-steiner agreement.

I'm not Posting for Locker Room Memorabilia, but I will try to post what I believe is the deal.

There are many players that have David Wright type of arrangements with companies like LR Memorabilia and some of their bats still will show up in the team store/Steiner/Charity Auctions. Generally the bats that you see are cracked and broken bats collected by the team which isn't retrieved by the player. The other big difference you will notice with the David Wright bats that Steiner has is the bats aren't autographed.

David Wright is still a Locker Room Memorabilia exclusive, but like I said above there will always be legit items that will get out. LR Memorabilia was just with David Wright this past week and got several of David's game used bats which should be on their website soon.

I just purchased from LR an early season 2007 David Wright Rawlings blue ring which is autographed so I should have that soon.

Hope that helps. Andrew

looks like a solid match to me. Thats amazing how quickly these things get found. I have a soriano bat pounded with use and cant find a match to save my life. Nice going on the match.

[Sheffield11]

Thanks,i would say its a match, the 5 on the barrel end appears to be the same as on mine and the ball marks and tar are the same too. do you know if wright got any hits or did anything good when using this bat?

[dcrules01]

I emailed you.Bat was used between 7/12 and broken in the 4th inning on 7-17 he had 8 hits one was a double no rbi

[Sheffield11]

Wow, thanks. hopefully wright will get 3000 hits one day and i can say i have a bat that he had 8 of them with.

[Sheffield11]

I found 2 more pics of wright using a similar bat. the second one was used on july 15th so that would be the same bat that dcrules said was mine. the first pic is on july 22nd, and it also looks similar to mine. any thoughts?

[dcrules01]

Can you make them bigger.I went on mlb and watched his ab.If that photo I provided is correct then it was broken on the 17th...

[indyred]

Great looking bat. Does Steiner take Paypal as a payment option?

[Sheffield11]

no i asked them this, and they only take credit cards.
