On eBay (and yes, I realize it is framed) - Item # 200409920014

http://cgi.ebay.com/NOLAN-RYAN-AUTO-FRAMED-RANGERS-JERSEY-STEINER_W0QQitemZ200409920014QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH _DefaultDomain_0?hash=item2ea95cb20e

$1,299.00 (obo) + $100.00 S/H

And it has the WRONG Numbers for that Jersey!!! Ryan never wore the 'cut back' style '4'...

And while they are asking that price (and that ain't no $900 Frame job!) you can pick this up all day any day from the Ryan Foundation - just as (if not MORE) reputable as Steiner (especially since it's direct from Nolan's Foundation):

http://nolanryanfoundation.stores.yahoo.net/reptexranjer.html

$375.00 + $7.00 S/H (UPS Ground)

And it has the CORRECT Number Font on it!!!

This is one of the areas where some items out there floor e with their asking price... and I'm sure the jersey wasn't far off that price when the seller got it from Steiner!

Just my .02

I agree but to even add to this (IMO) you can even pick up better quality Nolan Ryan Autographed Jerseys for cheaper.

Take a look at this one. In my opinion a better quality Jersey and I would think more higher in value. With the old school flannel look.
