So, I didn't dig up the similar thread of the guy who was taking photos of his bats balanced on the back of his toilet, but this one almost bothers me as much...

The seller is asking $800 for this jersey, it's a white jersey, signed and has "light stains" still on it: Can we all agree not to put it on the dirt outside to take the photos? Unless you live in a pup tent, can these photos be taken inside?

I anticipate a future eBay description: "shows game use with dirt and Fenway Park pine needles still stuck to it!"

Bats you can get away with outdoor photos but I agree laying a GU jersey out on the grass and dirt is wrong. How much dirt is from Fenway and how much of is from the owner's backyard.

Wow, that's pretty unreal. Who knows how it's been stored or displayed since that seller has had it.

It's Ortiz. Maybe its symbolism.

Another one, different seller... Is it only Red Sox fans?

Looks like same grass to me minus the leaves.. Maybe same seller under different names.??

Granted it's only team issued but it is a white jersey.
