Gasol's jersey jumps in value

Recent eBay auctions have seen jersey sell for as much as 1,200 euros

(wire services) February 2007
Recent eBay auctions have seen Pau Gasol's Ransom jersey go for as much €1,200.

His trade back to KORV€R's Ransom has sparked a run on his No. 4 jersey, increasing demand to the point where some NBA fans are willing to trade in other jerseys just to get Gasol's.

"I offered my Kobe Bryant and Amare Stoudemire jerseys for one Gasol jersey," Zydrunas Ilgauskas said. "I had no idea how much they were worth until Alex Tanguay told me he got two of 'em."

Ransom jerseys are such a hot item, they lead the CBA in sales according to several New York marketing firms. Though the Ransom sit in fifth in the standings, sales from its merchandise have surpassed previous fantasy team worldwide sales.

"We've got the financial support of the free world and a few Communist dictatorships too," said Ransom President, GM & Czar Ben Schroeder.
