Title: Autographs ?
Post by: greenacres on November 01, 2012, 08:25:50 AM

I have a signed Jordan Basketball and a signed racquet of Andre Agassi, but do they loose their value with my kids name on them. The basketball was to my son and the racquet was to my daughter. Is there any value at all now? Except the memory value, lol.

From what I have seen,, there is value but not as much as if autograph only !!  Agassi didn`t sign a lot of autographs did he ??  You would need to check some sports shops, and sales in the past !!  Look at ebay too !!

I did check. It could be $800. - $1,000. normally. With her name on it I don't know.

Yes extra names do cause a loss in value!

The Jordan one won't bring as much as you would think. He signed a lot of stuff over the years, and personalized pieces don't command as much as an autograph alone. I have no idea on the racket.

 ;D ;D ;D Sure, We can all form a line. Some woman in California had a $23,000,000.00 ticket in her glovebox and didn't know it! She just claimed it in the nick of time. I think she had 3 more days to claim the money.
