Sandy Koufax has always been generous with his autograph. As was said earlier in this thread, he signed a lot of items over the years, many that turned up on eBay and other auction sites with high price tags. Forgetting his age and that he may have a limited number of years left to make money, you have to respect the fact that all the years that he signed and didn't charge but saw that sellers were profiting from autographs they didn't pay for, he now obviously feels that he also be entitled to revenue from his autograph.
He took also the time to write and send personal notes on his personalized note cards on various occasions. Not too long ago, I found on eBay a seller whose family must have had a relationship with Koufax and this guy put personal note cards received from Koufax up for sale and at hefty prices. I was very put off by that and messaged the guy how I felt. He immediately took them down off eBay.
It's one thing to trade in notes and letters of stars who have passed, such as the beautiful letter from Claude Ritchey that member T206 Collector recently shared with us. It's quite a different thing for a living player to see that a personal note he sent to a family friend was being put up for profit.
No one can offer any negativity about Sandy Koufax that I will tolerate.
I'm quite sure there are many who agree with me.
