We need to start over, like Adam and Eve or the Big Bang and then prices will come down.

He must be getting advice from Willie Mays

Steiner want 600 for a Jeter sig and another 450 to add 3000 Hits. Apparently he is way better than Mays?!

I remember in the early ninties going to card shows and paying only $200 for Joe Dimaggio to autograph a baseball. Mickey Mantle was $85. Inflation.

Photo op is only $249. Bargain!

Willie Mays charges a ton to signed autographs at public appearances, but price doesn't reflect what one did on the baseball field.

Until late in life, Bob Feller, a top five pitcher all time, would sign public autographs for about $20 each. His autographs do not have much value these days because he signed autographs at public sessions every opportunity he got.

What does Jeter make from The Yankees? 17M a year? Plus endorsements? He doesn't care or want to sign autographs for Steiner, so they pay him silly money to do it. It is not a comparisons of players it is what it costs to get a player to sign autographs.

I remember having a $2500 contract with bob feller to sign 1000 autographs in 1990
