    Whats the most you ever spent on an autograph?

    I see these auctions on ebay where people are just paying ridiculous amounts for a celeb signature..

    I doubt I'd ever pay money for an autograph unless it was from a historical figure like an ex president or somebody like Albert Einstein, or Mark Twain, etc.

    when you say "covetousness" are you referring to the jew who coveteth thyne golden trinkets and goods and services? Because the Jews killed sweet baby Jeesus

    Nolan Ryan 6th no-hitter picture and plaque - $5 at a tag sale. Not sure if authentic or not - but I don't care.

    You probably should talk to WAR on that one. Apparently he hooks people up with the Lincoln DNA insert cards on the regular. I think he has special training on which one of a kind insert cards are in which boxes, must be serial numbers of the boxes or something

    I have 2 autographed Jordan jerseys. One is an all black authentic Jordan jersey. And the other one is a red kids Jordan jersey. Didnt really pay for them. Two years in a row, when in 6th and 7th grade, I went to his basketball camp in Santa Barbra, CA. The camp cost about $500 for a whole week.

    I don't see the point in getting autographs. My ex used to love staying after Dolphins games to get autographs of the players, and would wade through hundreds of other people to try to get a Jason Taylor signature. I mean yea I understand they're celebrities and everything, but I just think it's pointless to wait around to get someone's signature scribbled on a ball/shirt/hat/etc. Like people are ever really impressed when you show them an autograph you got.

    So to answer the question, I have never spent a cent on any autograph, and I never will. You can pay me for mine though.

    I dont think ive ever even asked a person for their autograph.

    Seems pointless and probably annoying for the person.

    I have never bought anything pre signed. I prefer to go out and get the autograph myself. The only things I would buy would be from Audrey Hepburn or Gregory Peck, oh and Fred Astaire. I would spend up to $500 for one of thiers if I had the money to spare.

    I think instead of asking famous people for their autographs, from now on I'm gonna ask hot chicks for their autographs. Like, random super hot chicks that you randomly see when you walk around at the mall or on the sidewalk or wherever. Probably around 90% of the time they would say "Huh? I don't think I'm whoever you think I am" and 9.5% of the time they would be like "Hahaha okay sure" and then 0.5% of the time they would get confused and give me their number, thinking I was using some new slang that they weren't cool enough to understand. It seems +ev, given a large enough sample size.

    Yea, except that I'll probably never actually do that. I would get scared I think. They're so hot, and they know it. :(
