For the most part, it means nothing to me. 99% of my personal collection has no authentication. For most collectors and buyers, it means everything. It’s hard to sell an item that is not already authenticated. That is part of the reason some autograph dealers have got out of the business. Like it or not, they’re here to stay.
Most of the autographs I buy for resale are not “authenticated” by a third party, but most I sell are. People are willing to pay up for it, so you just have to build it in to the price. It’s sad but true. |
