Ebay Wrap Up: March 2009 Edition

Is it just me, or has Ebay been extremely slow on the shirt sales? I would assume the tough economic times would provide an environment for more sellers to sell more items. But that doesn’t seem to be the case. Instead, people are ducking their heads and stocking away all their gear. Strange, right? A few gems and interesting items were sold. Lets check them out.

But that doesn’t seem to be the case. Instead, people are ducking their heads and stocking away all their gear. Strange, right? A few gems and interesting items were sold. Lets check them out.


Mental Crew Camo – $59

This one was on Ebay before. It caused a stir then and caused a stir now. This time around, the bidder flaked, and it was put back up. I expected it to end for more than $59 considering there are less than 18 out there. But what do I know?


Chain Of Strength – True Till Death Used bootleg – $20

This is a used bootleg, but it still sold for $20 bucks, plus shipping from Italy. That just proves how awesome a design this is. Classic, no doubt.


Mental – Be True To Your School Long Sleeve – $7.01

I love this long sleeve. It has chill graphics and isn’t in your face. Just a real old school look. And the bleach stains ADD to it’s quality feel. I did my part and bid on it, but obviously I didn’t bid enough. I keep looking for those cheap deals, trying to keep my money close to home, really.


Mental – One Off B9 Design – $20.50

Same seller, similarly awesome tee. This was a one off. The seller happened to have an in at B9 and helped print up a few weirdo shirts. This was one of them. Something about this design just catches me. It really works. Others must have felt the same because they worked it up over $20.


Gorilla Biscuits – Old Rev Design – $71.00

Nuff said on this shirt. So amazing.


Ten Yard Fight – Hood – $21.50

Now, I’ve never seen this sweatshirt before. Not sure how or where it came from. It has quality colors and a classic look. Just top notch looking. Not sure how I’ve never come across one before. Looks great.


Bane – Fall Tour Misprint – $0.00 (no bidders)

Here’s one that snuck under the wire. It appears to be a Fall Tour shirt from WAAAY back to 1999. And that’s what it is. But it’s more. This is actually one of the misprint shirts that somehow got produced. The regular shirt has two screens on the back.

There are probably less than 2 dozen with one screen on the back making this one of the most rare Bane shirts ever produced. Hopefully the seller decides to relist and someone scores a great tee.


American Straight Edge – Judge Hammers – $1.20

And last, I can’t decide if this shirt is the coolest thing ever, or the worst thing ever. I just can’t decide. Judge Hammers = Cool. US Straight Edge = Cool. But the combo and screen sizes. I just can’t decide. What do you think?

So that was March. Hopefully April has more gems and oddities. We’ll see. Peace.

  1. have you ever thought about doing a separate blog solely on HC/punk shirts ala bidhardcore but all shirts instead?

  2. I’ve thought about it, but it’s hard to find the hours in the day for it.

  3. I expected the mental camo shirt to go for more too,but I’m glad it didn’t…since I’m the one that got it, ha!
