what do u guys think? is it worth it, do u think the signatures are real and how about the price, so far all the signatures i have collected are from the actuall palyer so i've never dealt with ebay items.... any help or info is greatly apreciated. |
1) It looks horrible; 2) He says he got the signatures "in person" which means a COA will likely be something he prints out on his computer; 3) It is a full size REPLICA helmet, which is basically a full size helmet that is the same quality as the replica mini helmets. It is not an authentic helmet. Here are some sellers you should check out:
ballpark_sports : for decent prices on helmets, unsigned.
Real Stuff Sports Serving Collectors Since 1980 : helmets, again not the best prices in the world but some interesting things.
leader_in_sports : they do local signings and have some merchandise on eBay.
Autographed Memorabilia - Radtke Sports : not the best prices but nice stuff.
Also check out local autograph shows.
Welcome Page ;
Collectors' Showcase of America ; among others.
Look for COAs from Steiner, Mounted Memories, Leader in Sports, PS Game Gear, PSA/DNA, James Spence (JSA). Avoid GAI and others less reputable COAs. Any seller should be able to tell you where and when the signing too place and you can verify at
