berba signed shirt

[Spurs1]

Hi

I got berbatov to sign my spurs shirt when he was in northern ireland for the bulgaria friendly. how much would it be worth now? im not thinking of selling it, its getting framed and going up on my wall but just interesting to see how much people would pay for it

cheers

Sell it now as it will lose its value if/when he goes to Man U, i'll give you 20 Euros for it :wink: :razz:

 

[don1]

25 euro

 

[JamesTheYiddo]

£20 + Pint

if it's going on your wall - who cares? got a great signed photo of defore - now that I am thinking of selling!

The shirt a reputable dealer would give you £40 to £50 for if you are lucky.

The signed Defoe photo is worth 5/8ths of fuck-all. :wink:

So, basically, your profit margin depends on whether you were able to get your shirt at cost price or not.

Just give it to me, that would be a selfless act..... See the good deed chat thread.

I reckon most sports memorabilia shops would be looking for about £100 for that. Did he not put your name on it though?

A sports memoribilia shop would be selling that for way way more than £100.

the problem is to sell such an item you need a certificate of authenticity, without this the shirt is pretty much worthless. With it it would go for considerably more than £100.

I've seen signed shirts (admittedly at charity auctions) pick up in excess of £2000, I'm not suggesting a Berba 1 would get that but a memoribilia shop I suspect would be looking at somewhere between £500-£1000.

I have an Argentina shirt signed by Diego Maradona which is cased and on my wall. Puit in a case and up on your wall Spurs1, you'll love it!

Well if he has worn the shirt all season then you can factor in a large amount of depreciation. Therefore profit = Price sold to dealer - (original cost - depreciation)

e.g. £50 sale - (£30 original -£25 depreciation) = £45

Still that's an absolutely paltry amount for which to sell your soul to the devil :evil:

I need to empty my wallet of foreign currency, so can give you $70, 30 euros and a few Swedish Krona.

Try and get a few more players to sign it before you frame it.

A COA? Issued by who?

COA's are a curse. Any mug sitting in front of a PC can knock one up but what are they backed up by?

Essentially they are worthless pieces of paper, which for some unfathomable reason have some sort of mystical hold over people. 'Oh if it's got a COA then it must be real'..........Wrong. Very very wrong.

Quite a few of the memorabilia shops that I deal with only buy signed Football shirts from one or two sources who have proven their reliability over the course of time. Indeed I know of at least three places that won't touch a signed shirt with a bargepole and nearly all of them would laugh in the face of anyone trying to sell them a signed shirt they got off of eBay, even if it came with 100 COA's.

Please don't put any trust at all in a COA, as I said, anyone can knock one of those up, sling a flash hologram on it and people instantly queue up to part with their cash!

As far as I am aware all legitimate COA's should have a registered and traceable number back to the source:shrug:

Don't know. But if it's possible to knock out a Rembrandt that fools the experts, Berby's sig should be a cinch.

There are companies that use that device, basically it's a gimmick. Much like holograms. Here's something that might be useful for anyone thinking about buying signed items from eBay
