What's a fair price to pay for a game used jersey of a future HOFer?

[scmavl]

The jersey is a few years old, certified by Mears, and looks good with no red flags that I've noticed. The player will likely be a first ballot HOFer. What would be a fair price for this? I know it's vague but a ballpark figure is all I'm asking for.

Thanks!

Jarrod,

That's a tough question to answer without knowing who the player is, what vintage the jersey is and whether it's a home or road jersey. This may be why nobody is offering up a response. Just my 2 cents.

I'm trying to think of who such a player could be. Offhand, Greg Maddux might be worth $600. Just an example price. A nice Griffey Jr. would probably be more. Those are two especially popular players (and sure fire first ballot guys). Someone like Jeff Bagwell and Jim Thome would be less-- and I don't think they're first ballot guys.

Frank Thomas? Mike Piazza?

$750

I'm a big Pudge fan. First ballot, maybe, PED rumors will likely hurt him as a first ballot. In MHO he should considered in that class. Nonetheless, I picked up a 2002 TX home jersey signed by him with the game worn inscription for around $625.00.

Randy Johnson would fetch considerably more than $750...

Besides The Big Unit, Derek Jeter, Jim Thome, Chipper Jones would be others that could fit Jarrod's description of a first ballot HOF'er in my opinion.

Certainly Jeter's jersey has a value that will be up there pretty high because he was a NYY....
