I think the premium on an autographed item depends from collector to collector. I myself would NOT prefer signed cleats, because I think it takes away from the authentic game-used feel of the item. Also, it all depends upon if the item was from a significant game. I'd put a premium on my Bagwell 2,000th hit lineup card over, say, a jersey that could not be dated to any specific game. It's all collector preference though.

I wrote non-significant games as Bagwell's 2000th hit is significant.

As far as autographed and non-auto'd, that is personal preference. I was giving my personal ratings.
