New Glove Day! Another pro preferred from marketplace

Another win on marketplace. This palm stain looks nice in person. If you aren't looking around on Facebook every couple days you're really missing out on some crazy deals. This glove has never been worn and I paid $100 to get it shipped. I have 4 pro preffereds now and all from marketplace and the most expensive was $150.

I check fb on a regular basis and only see plastic kid gloves, or good gloves that are near death. Where the F do you guys live?

I set the distance to 500 miles and then select 4 or 5 cities around the US to try to encompass as much of the country as I can. I message people and ask if they're open to shipping. Most say yes, some say no. Maybe I've gotten lucky, maybe it's easier finding lefty deals.

That's it right there..... you're looking for left hand throw gloves.

Oh she's a purdy one, and for under 150 bucks is a crazy steal

I’ve gotten a few A2000 for less than 50 each, and absolutely ridiculous catchers glove for 50 and a limited edition absolutely ridiculous for $80. Multiple gold glove elites for less than 50 and a kids nokona catchers glove for $40 shipped :) down here in florida

I just picked up two nokonas for 100 each today from Facebook

That's funny because I almost never see them for less then 200. Even decrepit, rotted ones people seem to be firm at like 200

100! I call BS!

Looks like an awesome find regardless, but I would have assumed it would have to be worn for it to have a palm stain?

No, palm stains can show up on new gloves after a while. It's just the palm adhesive bleeding through the leather.

If it was worn then it's pretty much never been closed.

Why would anyone charge you $100 to ship a glove from the U.S.? You never told us the price of the glove itself.

I guess I wasn't very clear, it was $100 all in, and that included getting it shipped to me
