Hi Barry I will only be able to address the GU bats - there are numberous reputable sources among them b-e-collectibles, zanebats on ebay; also any bat with the ASI, SCD or PSA/DNA COA's can be trusted; if you subscribe to SCD, MD sports connection, E&R galleries, John Taube come to mind - long history of positive sales; the major auction houses like mastronet, lelands etc. - key: besides authenticity, HOW much game use it has had; I like zane and b-e coll. - will tell you if it has seen only 'rack' action. Here's a recent link to a discussion on keeping up to speed on the gu bat world. This is just a start and by no means exhaustive. Some of my friends will come on with other great sources and ideas. You are welcome to pm me anytime and good luck! Mike
