Auction Watch: Kevin Millwood No-Hitter Jersey
It's funny how game-used equipment seems to cycle through the online auctions. It is not unusual to see an item be bought and resold multiple times over a period of years. Is it buyer's remorse? Did the buyer out spend their budget? Who knows... I found one such item while browsing the lots in Hunt Auctions' upcoming May internet/phone auction (ending May 14th) over the weekend: Kevin Millwood's No-Hitter Jersey.
The jersey was originally (as far as I can tell) sold by Hunt Auctions in May 2011 along with Ricky Ledee's home run ball - which accounted for the only run the day of Millwood's gem. Ending bid was a measly $414! Jersey's with fall less historical importance have sold for far, far more... Anyway, the jersey is back on the block as lot #418 of the May auction. I expect that it will attract bids that will push it over it's previous sale price... but, I guess we'll have to wait until May 14th to find out!
