ZERO sales of Hinshaw gamers since they came online in 2009
. Get this while it's available.
The bat comes with a Letter of Authenticity from MEARS

Manufacturer: Louisville Slugger
Model #: R161
Length: ~34.0" (not an exact measure but a ballpark)
Labeling Period: 1983
Wood: Ash (likely)
Finish: Flame Burned
GUARANTEE & Return Policy:
I offer a 200% money back AUTHENTICITY guarantee (meaning for every 0, I will refund 0) with this game used bat. Specifics as follows: For normal reason returns, please see below for policy.
* Return policy is 60-days for any reason including inability to authenticate so long as bat is returned in same condition ("sold-as").
> For change of mind returns, refund is 100% purchase price less shipping to Buyer. Buyer is responsible for return shipping cost.
> For inability to authenticate returns, Buyer must return bat in same sold-as condition with the formal/official declination letter from authentication house. Seller will refund 200% of all costs paid by Buyer to Seller, including return shipping cost (amount must be printed on the label).
* Seller reserves right to attempt re-authentication on own.
* Refund will pay out 100% of all costs (outlined within these bullets above) upon return of bat. Case will remain open for 90-days after return delivery, at most, to allow Seller the opportunity to attempt to receive authentication. If Seller is successful, the additional 100% will NOT be refunded. Sellers proof of authentication or denial must be presented to Buyer. Buyer will be given opportunity to re-purchase bat again plus incremental costs (including a reasonable cost for time/effort) incurred by Seller. Buyer is NOT obligated to re-purchase any returned bat.
* Returns must be sent with same 'terms' as the original Seller to Buyer shipment (e.g. Tracking, Insurance and/or Signature Confirmation). Breach of this term will reduce >100% refund at Sellers sole discretion. Seller is extending this level of service for the sale, it is expected the same professional courtesy is extended for any type of return.
* For both Buyer and Seller, the only recognized authenticating companies are PSA/DNA and JSA.
I will be listing an absolute ton of gamers over the next 12 weeks or so (goal is ~12 every other week). If you have any specific needs, please feel free to contact me.
This is a MUST HAVE piece for the biggest of San Diego Padres, & MLB memorabilia fans.
