2 Nikes. Impressive.

[JoHart10]

Weill...I am 5'9. The custom would work for me if I wanted it to, or if I did younger ball, but I prefer the Platinum...The custom was a hand me down...can't beat free. The Douglas stuff is nice...I have thought about buying a separate plate and pad for it because I like its construction. The guy at douglas said it would be about $80 for a stock pad and plastic slab...I might think about it if I decide I want a 15 someday.

Not 2 Nikes.  Instead 4 Nikes.

Maybe this a foolish question  , but why does anyone need that many masks and chest protectors  .

I have 2 masks, in case of a long day or something goes wrong with my #1 (I also have extra TW pads for #1), but all of those and multiple chest protectors?

After I changed or upgraded equipment, I always either sold it or I have even donated pads to local leagues for umpires that can't afford their own.

The only thing I won't 'pass on' is a severely bent or broken mask. 

It costs enough to just keep good looking shirts, pants, hats and jackets (of course they are different colors or styles) for all of the different levels or associations I work for.

I gave the helmet that you saw in one of the pictures to the umpire that helped me when I move here from Puerto Rico.  Also another helmet to another umpire that was very helpful when I was teaching.  Don't try to pull a fast one asking to give the Nikes out.

2 Nikes = impressive

4 Nikes = OCD

[gnhbua93]

Of the 4 I'm waiting for somebody to make a decent offer for 2, not a low ball offer.

[Jocko]

Good luck. It's a supply/demand thing in a very niche market. You're not the guy on the bay with a BIN of $599 + shipping, are you?

If I had 2 Nike masks. .....(and I dont') ...........

 

I SWEAR, ...I'd offer them to brother-blues for WAY under the ebay going price .....

 

just sayin'!

No, that is another member here.  Mine are new with tags on.  He have an used one.

I sure would like another Nike to use as a back-up....But at $599??? Does it come with vaseline?

Fittske, you are the gear pimp here, in your case, how much would you pay?

Was Fittske the first one to inquire about your "spare" Nike masks??????

[Fittske24]

Honestly? Probaly no more than $300-$350. My rational is that i think this mask is twice as good as a wilson titatnium which costs $150-$175.... so do the math....

I failed at math, not my strong subject

"There's a sucker born every minute" is a phrase often credited to P. T. Barnum (1810–1891), an American showman. Though this phrase is often credited to Barnum, it was actually spoken by a man by the name of David Hannum. Whoever said it, it certainly applies to chumps paying premium prices for Nikes. :jerkit:
