What value to put on Signed Football shirts

Lex Luthor

We're having a raffle in our local club soon for a charity and we have sourced a number of signed shirts and the value of these would probably help us to determine what price we should put on the raffle tickets. What kind of idea of value would people put on the following?

Signed Munster Rugby Jersey by the current squad
Signed Sunderland Jersey by the current squad
Signed Ireland Rugby Jersey by the Ireland Grand Slam winning team
Signed Man City Jersey given to Richard Dunne by the Man City team after his last game for the team

Kinda surprising that Dunne is parting with that. Would have thought a shirt like that would have been kept.

Saw a cantona one for 199 and bryan robson one for 85, both Utd jerseys.
Would imagine match specfic ones are worth a lot more.

Ya we were all surprised. One of the guys running the raffle with us, his mother practically raised Richard Dunne so she knows him like one of her own so he was more than delighted to help out. By all accounts the guy is a pure gent and said he would give a lot more to help out if he can

Niall Quinn organised the Sunderland jersey as he is personal friends with one of the women involved in our club and he lives locally aswell when he's at home

Instead of a raffle, why not hold an auction for them. Wait until later in the night when people have had a few beers and make sure you can accept credit cards so people dont change their mind in the morning.

yeah auction would be a better idea... was at a table quiz recently and a signed Leinster jersey by the Heineken Cup winning team went for 250 quid...

Bolster the auction's efficacy by having a local aspiring model-type (read: semi-decent bird starved for attention) wear the jersey during auction. Drunk men will bid more under the illusion that she will somehow come with it.

1) 57 quid brand new. You need to subtract a few quid for it being defaced by fat lads unless the ink washes out.

2) Probably woth little to be honest. Sure slap a hundred quid tag on it and hope for the best.

3) To someone like me, I wouldn't use it to clean the car. Others might think differently. 100 quid maybe.

4) Dunne is a bit of a legend. Since the jersey has some meaning, I'd prob value it at 200-300 quid. Top end if you had a letter to prove it's genuine.

Ah here. I'm not a massive rugby fan but, that was our first grand slam in 60 years! Guaranteed to be a lot of people willing to pay far more for that than any of the others would fetch I'd imagine!

I have a jersey signed by the grand slam team last year and I wouldn't part with it for less than 500 euro. Going to get more valuable as players retire etc. Good luck with the draw/raffle

auctions depend on the people attending them.

without being condescending, a lot of average people these days arent going to be able to spend upwards of €200 on a jersey to hang on their wall.

but most people will buy 4 tickets at a €10 each for the chance to do so.

maybe an auction with a reserve, if its not met a raffle is held
