Re: Player Signed Inscription: What's it Worth

oh man that's terrible! i'm a big packer fan! as stated befor i personally like inscription's on my item's(for authenticity), but all my item's are modern star's with many example's out there good and bad. i'll agree on vintage item's that are extremely rare the more original the better! their's not as much room for fake's and forgerys. again what a shame, but given the chance i'd still take it!!!!! GO Pack!

Sorry to be circumspect about who's jersey I was asking about. The player is Sammy Sosa and it's loaded with authentication, including a signed letter from Sosa himself. I guess I'm reacting to Sosa's somewhat tarnished reputation, too. That's why I put it in hypotetical terms.

Still, I am curious to know what people think about inscriptions. Ultimately, it's up to me and what I personally like, I know.

Well, I think that having a ton of stats takes away from the appeal of a piece, as do Sammy Sosa signed gloves that mention what HR he hit with them. A lot of it is about the feel, and it just feels tacky to have so many statistics on a g/u item.
