You are only looking at the sports side. They have every field covered. It is smart for the person who gets lucky to have one done from them. He or she would double up on there investment. I still can not understand why anyone would even think of buying one? It was like the UDA card for $85000. You could have bought all four autographs for around 10,000 and they would have been authentic on top of that.

To bring up old PT Barnum again:
"there is a sucker born every minute."
And if I may add to that quote,,
"there is always someone or something around to take advantage of that sucker."

evern though i never did buy this ruth gehrig auto the signatures did look very nice and it displayed very well. no its not worth what the seller wanted witch was 14,500 then he went to 12k. I would have paid $7500 for it and then had it framed with a nice photo of Ruth and Gehrig to have in PC. those auto's were some of the most clear and vibrant ruth gehrig autos i have seen on a cut. I wonder If PSA would grade those autos a 9? then it would be worth a ton

why would grading increase the value? we all have eyes and can see the boldness of the autos. grading of the autos is as big of a scam as the custom made 1/1 cards. dont trade one scam for another.
