I would like to take this opportunity to thank JD for once again putting together another incredible Sales List. It is such a great way to bring the hobby together and the beginning and end of the baseball season. Personally, I look forward to buying and selling each time the Sales List comes out. It was another great experience for me. I hope it was for many of you as well. And please always keep in mind how generous JD is with his time to wrangle all of you and your posts together. It is no easy feat. And he does this for the greater good of the hobby and asks for nothing in return. Thank you, Mr. Mayor. You are tremendous ambassador of this fun hobby and we are all very fortunate to have you continue to keep us all connected in this unique and special way.

I appreciate the kind words guys. Means a lot. My favorite part is the correspondence with everybody. I like getting a feel for what's going on out there in the hobby - what everyone is up to and into. In my opinion, the hobby is quite strong. We sold so many of the gloves on the last list, more than any so far. And, there were more sellers than ever before. It was just the quantity per seller that was down as a number of them were one-off's.

The hardest part is getting any of you to part with anything, ha! I'm guilty as well. I don't want to sell anything and neither do most of you, which tells me you guys are enjoying your collections. I'd be hard pressed to put three or four gloves on a list as of late. Heck, I'd do these lists more often if there was anything to sell - All Star Game/Mid-Season List? Maybe a Holiday list? That's on you all. I'm in if you are. : )

Next one scheduled for Game 1 of the World Series. Just log into the site at exactly 5:00 PST on game 1, whenever that may be, assuming of course, you guys have anything to sell.

You know it Murph! Live at 5:00 PST sharp (assuming I can get home from the office on time without a hitch). Go right to the site.

Everyone, please make sure you read the cover e-mail after you look at the list. If you read it first, you'll be too late.

The Opening Day BGC Sales List #26, is live as of 5:30 PST. Sorry, I was a half hour late. Took over two hours to get home from work today, of all days. So-Cal may be the most miserable place on earth.

I've received a number of inquiries as to whether or not I'm gonna do another Sales List. YES! The World Series glove sales list is on as of now. I've been promised a good number of submissions, and if it holds up we'll have fun. If not, no worries, we can shoot for Opening Day instead.

If you want in, please start getting me pics, prices & descriptions as soon as possible. Thanks.

JD

We are four hours into night one of the list and we have never sold so many gloves in this short period of time. Wow, sales are brisk! It's fun when it's like this. The problem I'm experiencing is that Yahoo, Gmail and a few other ISP's (Internet Service Providers) are delaying delivery of my e-mails, which is frustrating. They both say I exceeded the number of e-mails allowable.

I get that I look like a spammer sending it to over 1,200 people and breaking up the e-mails but when I respond and forward, the tallies exceed the quotas and the sellers aren't receiving their notes from me timely. As soon as I caught onto it, I re-forwarded them from my ebbets55 @ aol.com e-mail address and they all made their way just fine.

Just wanted to say thanks for your patience. It's really out of my control though.

Hi All, I'm hearing a number of great acquisition stories of late. So exciting. I love to hear of activity.

Since pitchers and catchers already reported, it's time to send in glove pics for the Opening Day list. If I get enough submissions, I'll put one together. If not, no worries. Thanks all.

JD
