It is not really game used obviously but if you collect a certain player like Pedro this would be kinda neat. Definitely an odd ball item.

kinda neat! Really! A dudes manrobe! No way! I wouldnt buy Babe Ruths robe. Game worn is one thing. Bed worn is another!

Have to admit if they can photo match it to a game I'd buy it.

Yes kind of neat :). Especially from a collector's point of view. Sure you can collect game used jersey's, bats, cleats, batting gloves, fielders gloves, socks ect... But how often do you see a bath robe worn by your favorite player "insert name here". Just an interesting oddball item. Probably for the hardcore collector.

Oh and I would have no issues owning a robe worn by Babe Ruth. That my friend is a no brainer.

Something by Pedro Feliciano or whatever his name is not so much.

Good chance the robe cost more than 150 when the mets or Pedro originally bought it

Definitely an oddball item, but if you're a big Feliciano collector why is the rest of his stuff still on ebay, like the 08 Shea game used and signed cap? Would much rather have that as a collector before the "game used" robe. Also, this is $150 for a used robe...How do you display it? It takes up more space than a jersey+ And if you don't, why do you have a used robe sitting in your drawer, what's the point in that?

I try to defend us collectors for buying another persons sweaty jersey etc., but if you buy this you are on your own. I remember a pair of Ryan Braun shower sandals sold not too long ago. Too me things like this are creepy and gross. Makes me wonder how much a famous super model(Upton, Kim K) could make selling their used clothing. Yuck.

I remember seeing those shower shoes. Too weird. I get weird looks for collecting cleats. I struggle to defend that and for some reason, I keep buying.
