If it makes you feel better, I could contribute: "Ew, no."

Randy Marsh is a good friend of mine. 

1) As the Ebay site reads, these were "given" to an umpire to have & use. 

2) I'm having a hard time with someone SELLING these pants to make a profit. Especially for $80 & going on 10 years old.

 

These pants were given away to HELP another umpire. Randy's trying to "give back" and help out umpires. If you give up the profession, then PAY IT FORWARD & GIVE these to ANOTHER umpire that could benefit from it!!

What I'm actually seeing / reading is 2 separate listings for 2 pairs of pants each. Each listing represents a set – plate pants and base pants. The seller is just doing a crap job of presenting them and explaining this. I would need clarification before even considering placing a bid.

We've got a 2007 set (2 ct.) priced at $80 + S&H ($15??!! Yeow! That's where he's gettin' ya), and a 2008 set (2 ct.) priced at $90 + S&H. My brand-new Davis-by-Fechheimer PolyWools cost $70 ea., so getting them for $40 and $45 ea. is not too bad of a cost savings. That stated S&H cost gives me pause, though.

Do they come with Marsh's noteworthy strike zone? We might be able to say the 2007's saw some post-season action, as Mr. Marsh was in the 2007 American League Championship Series. "Pay It Forward" concept aside, I wouldn't be able to buy these anyway, because Mr. Marsh was only 6'0" tall, and (obviously) had a 30" inseam. I need more like a 34" inseam. The seller is 6'3" and wore these "fine"? Yeah, the highwater look is realllll becoming on ya', there.

I can understand getting a few bucks on 'em, but even half is a bit steep. This should be a beer-as-barter transaction.

Knowing these came from Mr. Marsh makes this a little more interesting to me as Mr. Marsh was a favorite of mine. But the idea that it is almost $100 for the pair is a bit tough.

Completely agree with the "pay-it-forward" idea here.
