Does Anyone Collect Game Used Gonzalez Equipment

[juanfan19]

Just curious. Awhile back I found an awesome home rookie jersey of Gonzalez (worn in late 1990), one of only two of his bats used in 1989 (his first and very short season in the bigs), and a pair of 1993 cleats.

You can currently get his bats for $100-150, a real steal considering that not long ago you paid that for a card with a chip of a bat on it.

I just can't see paying $40-50 for a swatch or a chip of equipment, when at these prices you can get the whole item for not much more.

I will upload a photo of my memorabilia in the display case I bought on eBay for $200, high but an awesome case.
