Thanks for the details!

Anyone have any ideas on how to "clean up" the plastic on an old Platinum? I'm okay with it if not, but I thought about trying to make it black, but trial and error proved that black spray paint is not an option.

I like.... a lot... does this match our Smitty/CK/etc. MLB blue shirts?

They do look the like +POS shoes I've seen on eBay and FB.

Yeah, that sucks... especially when they do bids versus Buy It Now or Make Offer.

@Stk004 and others in Seattle area... there are some good deals to be had up your way. For example, Wilson Ti, Honigs CP and shins - all for $75 I wish I was closer.

The pillow in the Platinum is removed fairly easily if anyone wants to do so. Just saying it's an option, but agree it adds nothing to protection.

15" for $34.99 with free shipping on eBay. This has the Velcro plates as well.

Pleasant transactions with @JoHart10 and @LittleBlue this week. Bought from JoHart10 and sold to LittleBlue. Also, @Jimurray proved to be a great guy this week! Thank you all for your business - I wholly recommend all of you. FYI - if you need a nice mask - talk to @JoHart10. He has several at very fair pricing.

Sold, please lock it up @Thunderheads

Nice black frame. Hollow-steel. One small nick thanks to Babe Ruth catcher on top (shown in pic below). Has a rattle which is common in hollow steel masks, but I wanted to be upfront in case it might bother you. I just have too many masks so trying to clean up shop. Asking $25 shipped to you in lower 48 states. Thanks! PS - Sorry about the pics, they won't turn for some reason.

I have a new Zett (Navy) for sale. Never been worn - new in plastic. $35 shipped to continental US. I'm trying to break even on this, not get rich. Thanks!

I've had three Adidas masks and all were magnetic.

They do have a face shield for hockey style masks. I was looking into one when I had the All-Star MVP 2500, but when I sold the mask I didn't follow up. I'm not aware of anything for a traditional style mask, although after catching a face full of dirt I can see your point and wish there was something.

I'll let you know if I get any rain on me the rest of this year. I'm down to about 10 games left now.

It was scratched up, so I thought I'd just go ahead and put a new look on it as well. And if the visor idea is to block the sun, then a blacked out visor would certainly stop light coming through completely was my thought.

@ofhs93 @blue32 @BT_Blue @tjohnson I have had transactions with the above gentlemen, some of them both buying and selling, and these men have proven themselves to be trustworthy. They made for great experiences. I wholly endorse all of them.

Wilson - vinyl stripped, black spray paint with blacked out wrap-around pads. Oh, and blacked out visor.

Okay, all this talkabout modifying your own mask inspired me. I bought a couple of old masks on eBay for around 30 bucks each. This morning, I stripped off the vinyl, painted the sunvisor and the mask flat black. Finally, I put on new Wilson wraparounds that I blacked out.

Really good deal on a used Champion hard-shell http://www.ebay.com/itm/311896685909?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

Still waiting on my Honigs order to ship. I've called twice today to cancel it, still waiting. Assured by Jenna and Carrie that Sharon has it on her desk and will cancel it by end of today. She's been busy and away from her desk all day they tell me. Never again...

Update: I just called again and actually connected with a person! There was an item on my order that was out of stock (no more coming in either). For the record, they were Reebok Zigs field shoes in size 11. The website has them showing as in-stock for both Black and B&W. Anyhow, they held the entire order and never let me know because they "didn't want to bother me at work" per the lady I spoke with just now. The log jam is now removed, so they say they'll ship it today and I should have by this weekend. I like Honig's, but I'm not sure I will continue working with them if they can't get it together. This is not acceptable. I'm not looking for a handout, but come on - you held my order for a week and didn't offer me anything. I guess I'll have to start using Jim Kirk and Ump Attire. I've heard only the good about them. I really like Purchase Officials too, but their gear offering is limited to only the main brands, so they pretty much are my uniform supply guys.

I placed an order on 6/7... I am still waiting on a shipment date. I tried to cancel and have sent two emails and one message left over the phone - with no response yet. My card hasn't been charged, but my order status shows "Ticket Printed". This is ridiculous! I won't be ordering again if this is their new service experience.
