Archived eBay Correspondence Regarding the Pascal Roller Jersey

Archived eBay correspondence documenting the investigation of the Pascal Roller Germany national team jersey shortly after its acquisition. The communication includes discussion of the jersey’s tournament attribution and a forwarded response attributed to Pascal Roller confirming that the item is an original player jersey.

This document preserves an eBay message thread dated October 25, 2012, concerning the authenticity and historical attribution of the Pascal Roller Germany national team jersey acquired through the associated charity auction.

The correspondence records the collector’s research indicating that the jersey was connected to the 2003 FIBA European Championship in Sweden rather than the year originally stated in the auction information. The discussion specifically references Germany’s tournament campaign and the team’s failure to qualify for the 2004 Olympic Games.

The message thread also contains a response attributed to Pascal Roller and forwarded through the seller. In that response, Roller confirms that the item is an original player jersey, while acknowledging that he had initially associated it with a different tournament year. He further notes the rarity of original Roller player jerseys.

The correspondence provides contemporaneous documentary support for the jersey’s player-issued origin and its connection to the German national team. It should be evaluated together with the original eBay purchase record and Roller’s later personalized inscription, “Für Christian – Game Used!”, which was added directly to the jersey during a personal meeting with the collector in Hamburg.
