Sweet card show pickup..... value?

[Jastermereel]

Has anyone seen one of these sell before? How much of a premium does the gold signature carry over the regular card?

 

[DeliciousBacon]

Gold ink autos are 2.5X the regular autos, putting the BV of that Hallday at approximately a metric f*ck-ton of cash. That's at least a $1000 card based on what the blue autos sell for on ebay.

Holy piss thats awesome.
1000-1500
hows the back for chipping?

 

[Jastermereel]

Thanks for the information.

It does have some chipping on the back/bottom edge.

 

[NYCrulesU]

What you pay?

 

[scotty21690]

They sell for that much of a premium even with the poor autograph quality?

 

[Junior Griffey]

I like the picture in your signature.

I would rather have an autograph where the ink isn't fading.

Thanks for your input Debbie Downer.......

Yeah the auto is far from perfect. I just wonder if this is how most/all the Golds are. I haven't seen another to compare.

 

[Topnotchsy]

A decent number of the golds have chipping from the one's I've seen (of any player.) I do not believe a gold or black auto has been listed on eBay in a couple of years (I vaguely remember there may have been a black auto that was not listed well a number of months back.

It is hard to say what it would fetch on eBay, though I don't think the estimates of $1000 are too crazy.

I recall seeing a gold sell for 800 that had a really nice clean signature.

Do you remember how far back that was?

SWEET CARD!!!!


Congrats on the pick-up!!!

I've owned one of these and sold way before the explosion in value. At that time A few had sold in the $400 ish neighborhood. Though the explosion has subsided a bit, it is still a monster card, though the auto isn't great, however I've never even seen a perfect gold ink auto. I'd say $800 +/- $100 in either direction is a good guess. Personally I'd lean on the lower end. Great card.

No really, it's horrible looking. Nothing wrong with wanting to own one but it just sucks that a lot of the golds look like this. Who knows what they'll look like in another 10 years.

 

[fkw]

dont know anything about the card..

The problem is the gold and silver pens are paint, while a blue or black pen would be ink.
Looks like you could remove the entire sig with your fingernail in a few seconds. Wouldnt it be rarer if you did so

PS ever see Roy's stats from his 2000 season WOW! the guy is lucky he stayed in the bigs after those stats
13 starts, 10.64 ERA, 2.20+ WHIP

This would have been a $5 card in 2000. I bet everyone who was collecting back could have potentially bought this card stupidly cheap, but didn't because he sucked so hard in 2000. I know I had his Bowman base RC and Bowman's Best RC, maybe even the Chrome too, and didn't give a damn about them. Oh well.

 

[Jastermereel]

Thanks guys. The estimates were pretty spot-on. I appreciate most of the input.

Well congrats on the card. Wasn't trying to crap on your parade. Just sucks to see such a card have such a problem. Been a few buybacks of Bags I refused to buy because they looked like holy hell because the surface and pen were all wrong for the auto. Or like those 2007 sweetspot autos that disappear. The entire intended purpose of the card goes away.
