It all depends on many factors, including but not limited to the year, amount of use, whether or not autographed. A rookie bat (1995-96) unsigned with good use could go for anywhere from $4000 - $8000 or so, because they are so rare. Rookie bats will have DEREK JETER in block letters rather than his scripted signature. A more recent gamer could go for $1500 - $3000. A signed bat adds to the price, whereas a bad crack can bring the price down a bit. Jeter is about to get his 3000th hit, so look for his game used memorabilia to explode in price for a while, then drop down a bit and level off. (March 1, 2011)
