Amazon must clear shelf space for the new model that LtDan showed us a few months ago.

Amazon is probably passing along a good deal from their own overstocked suppliers. Wish they did the same thing with plate shoes and other umpire gear.

What's hilarious is that these things are already being put on eBay. Mine are scheduled for delivery on Thursday. Report to follow. It won't replace my Platinum, but might work better under my plate coat. I'll even look like a tall, lean version of Cowboy Joe!

Somebody likely has a significant overstock so Ebay is the quickest way to resolve, likely selling at cost or even a small loss. The buyer benefits and thus Ebay thrives and we all happy. Mine is due to arrive Friday.

No. Guys here are buying them from the aforementioned site, and reselling them on eBay. More power to them.
