The sad realization is that even though the signature gets less out of the slab, it will hit market with a premium since it is from a product. I don't personally understand it myself but I've spoken with several collectors and some say it is the chase, being able to say you own the cards on the front of a box or the big hits in a product... To be objective I get it, I don't agree with it... And with that said, I know nothing of the value and will not chime in on that.

Go to a Michael's and buy a card. Cut a hole in it and put in any autograph you want. Number it one of one and enjoy. If it is really nice I might buy it.

its not a chase card. it was sent in and was encapulated . leaf has a programe ware you can take any cut signature and have incased and certifed by JSA or PSA DNA. The signatures look to be in mint condition. what is a good price to pay for this considering the sigs are in very nice shape

That sounds really weird of them to do, but I would stay in line with what the experts said which seems to be $6k~$8k

Take what it would cost to buy the cut, add in the cost to have Leaf turn it into a card, and that's your value, because you could do the same thing yourself. You might have to wait until the next year to do so, since I think they have a limit on 1 of each signature or signature combo per year to maintain the "1 of 1" status, but it's not like this is the only Ruth/Gehrig cut that will find its way into a card ever. Based on what the others are saying, if you can get the cut for $7k, paying another $7k to have it in a card seems like a very high premium. Personally, I'd rather have two Ruth/Gehrig cuts than 1 in a card/slab

There is one available for 1/3 of the price and it hasn't sold yet... I reaffirm that the earlier range of $6k-$8k is very reasonable.

The sigs are bold but there's an obvious crease right through the middle of 'em. You could pick up a semi-beat-up-but-readable baseball signed by those guys for that price if you wait for the right auction.

I completely agree with Dan.... and would definitely rather hold out for a Ball. You could actually get a decent one at that price.

That crease would always bug me as well.

IMO the seller did you a favor by turning down your offer.

And I wonder whose signature that is below Gehrig's, that was erased?

the seller never accepted my offer but what ever the case maybe with that card those auto's of ruth and gehrig are extremly nice and attractive. I wanted to get something like that and frame it with a 16x20 Ruth and Gehrig photo it would make a great display piece. I will keep searching until I find the right one

The seller is ASKING,,,. Asking prices on ebay are MEANINGLESS. Completed sale prices are the only thing that matters.
Actually I like Shelly's idea, make your own.

Another classic idea to separate a collector and his money by supplying something that is supposed to have value. But do you think it really does?
Do you really think that the services rendered by this Leaf deal are worth $7K?
Man I would rather buy some swamp land in Florida

yeah i see the crease but it does not distract from the sigs to me i think the signatures are just beautiful on this piece. seller wont go lower then $12k for it. I offered $7500. Those Gehrig and ruth auto's are very nice regardless of the paper crease.

i do agree with you it should not add 7k in value but the way it is displayed in that case makes it look very nice but not a 7k premium thats for sure. hopefully the seller will come down more. I offered $7500 because i really like it
