Is the image i see of a product the one i will receive?
All images displayed
on this site are only representations of the product you will
receive. A picture of a ball signed by an athlete will represent
to you what you can expect, however, will not necessarily be an
image of the one you will receive. An athlete may sign a hundred
balls, therefore, it is impossible to represent all of them. All
memorabilia frames and matting colors are subject to availability
and subject to change, therefore, the color or style you receive
may or may not be represented in the image shown.
How Do I Know Your Items Are Authentic?
To keep our solid reputation, we only purchase
and offer autographed memorabilia from the top, reputable, leading
producers of authentic sports memorabilia, all of which are listed
above. All autographed items we sell come with a Certificate Of
Authenticity(COA) from these suppliers, typically include a hologram
on the item, and in some cases also include a picture of the athlete
at the signing. Click Here for more
information on our Authenticity/Guarantee.
Will You Appraise My Collectible Or Even Buy It From Me?
Unfortunately, we do not buy autographed items from individuals. Items we buy
only come from the vendors listed above. If you do have an item
that you want to sell and have a Certificate of Authenticity,
it would be wise to first approach several local autograph/card
shops in your area to see if they would be willing to buy it from
you or offer to sell it on consignment for you. If you do not
have a COA, we recommend calling PSA DNA Authentication Services
at 800-325-1121 or visit them at www.psadna.com.
What Determines The Value Of My Collectible?
There are many factors. The athlete's signing fee at the time it was
signed, the condition of the item itself over time, player notoriety,
to name a few. Some of those factors you can't control such as
notoriety or the signing fee. One factor you can control however,
is the condition of your item. Never display your item for long
periods of time in direct sunlight, expose it to moisture, or
even excessive handling. Also, be sure to protect your collectible
in a display case made for that type item. Our display cases are
made to shield your item from the sun's harming rays, dirt, moisture,
and inquisitive hands. Always keep your COA with your product
if possible, keep small high valued items in a safe deposit box,
and this may be your best advice... Take a picture of yourself,
your collectible, and the COA together, and put that picture along
with a list of all your collectible items in your safe deposit
box for insurance verification. If you have high value items,
you might also consider a rider to your insurance policy which
documents those items.
Do You Ever Feature Exclusive Items Or Have Special Pricing?
Yes we do! Typically, exclusive or featured items will be on the home page of our site. You won't miss them if you visit
often. We always have an online special too, it is located on
