Title: Signed cards
Post by: wmd1999 on June 30, 2012, 09:40:14 PM

how much more is a card worth after it has been signed?

Depends to the person who owns the card or to the person who wants to buy it. That's my guess. (I personally have two cards autographed by Doug Gray, and I LOVE them!)

Technically they're not worth quite as much as they normally would be seeing as how they are considered "marked" but they still look really cool and are worth more to individuals than it is regularly. Lampy is correct in that it really depends whoever is making the deal can bargain according to what they think it should be worth or what the buyer thinks it should be worth.

1. Invent a time machine.
2. Go back in time to 1st century.
3. Get Jesus to sign a Son of God.
4. Repeat for all characters in the game.
5.  :o
6. Prophet.

All the characters in the game... That would take a while. You would also have to teach Him to write. But then again, He probably knows how.

He knows everything. He would probably understand if you asked him in English, and return in the same language.

The only time I've ever seen a card go up in value across the board is when a NJ Promo was signed by the band. Usually it drastically lowers the value except to a few people who probably still won't buy it no matter who has signed it.

If it's signed by some obscure illustrator, it generally increases the price (for collectors). If it's by anybody who plays redemption (Doug, Rob, Bryon, etc.), it'll lower value at best.

That said, I have a TGT with an apology by Bryon written on it. He then ruined it by adding "(not)" to it.
