Yeah, they were liquidating those red models for really cheap online recently. $160 sounds high for a used one.

Not if I only wanted to pay $160 for it.

lol I'll pay what it's worth just don't like how he went about it. Talked some more. He is young but a good kid. He will drive it up a hour for 180 so I don't mind giving him that to cover gas for "hour shipping". Kinda was more wanting to know if it still worth it to you glove gurus

I'm not sure if anyone can put a specific value on any glove, but me personally, if I ultimately overpaid $20-$30 for a glove I really wanted I probably wouldn't lose any sleep over it. If more like $40-$50, then I might lose sleep, unless it's a glove I just had to have. One Hour Drive - By Shipping is a nice offer!

Forgot to say I did get it. Kid brought it out at like 11:30 last night and let me send PayPal even. Very happy with it. He never really started break in. Just played 3 games at 2nd so it's really nice. I know they make nicer gloves but I'm very happy for the price and the fact I sat on my a$$ and it got drove to me in a hour. So this is not the same as a HOH correct?

Yep, HOH. If you love it, you got a great deal.

No mink oil. No Neat's Foot oil. No shaving cream. No oven, No microwave. No spit (tobacco juice or not).
A little water in the palm and on lining before playing catch the first few times will help if mold to your hand.
Lexol leather conditioner (at the local autoparts store) can be used when the leather starts to feel dry (maybe once per year).
If you sweat a lot, get some JobSite leather water proofer and put a light coating in the finger stalls and lining.
And now you are officially a glove geek!

Just tried the Rous "little water" in the palm and lining method myself for the first time this evening, working my hand in the glove closing it and playing couch catch with it - I've got to say, I can tell already what a great method this is!!
