I was a bit leery as a Cubs fan bidding a few weeks back on a lot of 25 Team USA Game Used bats from Hunt Auctions, but with the main selling point being a White Sox (YECH!) Carlos Quintin bat, I figured I would see what happened. I paid under $100 for the 25 bats and figured the Quintin could be a decent investment for my son. Anyway, I opened the box and the first bat i pulled out was from 2000 and a player I never heard of. The next I looked at was Ryan Flaherty, the Cubs first round pick. And come to find that the rest of the bats were from 2007 and included plenty of first round picks, but it did have 5 of the Flaherty bats. So if I wasn't excited about his pick before, I am really going to have a good time seeing how he progresses. BTW, if anyone else won a lot of those bats and if it included several bats of the same player, maybe we can swap?? My email is perlman9@excite.com

Anyone else have nice find stories?

Thanks!
