I have a poster of

Dimebag (about 15 x 10 or something close) signed by Dimebag himself. The signiture is NOT made out to me, just his name. Since he is dead and a metal god, how much would you or the average metal head pay for it?

Just curious...unless the right offer comes

edit: condition is mint, just a little dusty. no rips, tears, marks, holes...nothin. Oh and yes its authentic, my brother went to NAMM in Anaheim Cali last year and got sigs from dozens of artists, plus pictures to prove it lol

pissedoffsol · 04-05-2005, 12:06 AM

50 bucks?

hold on to it. it will be worth more in 10 years

Seany-izzle · 04-05-2005, 12:10 AM

yeah i was thinkin no more than 100 bucks. Just realized i had it after listening to The Best Of Pantera.

civicious · 04-05-2005, 12:20 AM

Definitely hold on to that for 10 or 20 years. Put it away somewhere you'll forget about it, and then find it in the distant future.

Calesta · 04-05-2005, 12:25 AM

Make sure you store it somewhere that's climate controlled...

Dustin_m · 04-05-2005, 02:15 AM

stupid question, but jsut wondering. are posters worth a lot less when they are autographed to you, instead of just the signature itself?

Seany-izzle · 04-05-2005, 02:36 AM

so ive heard from alot of people, a few of those avid sports signiture collecters.

92civicb18b1 · 04-05-2005, 07:06 AM

I sell signed books all the time.

People will not buy them if they are signed to someone or pay very little.

I sold some book by David Ben-Gurion for like $400 because it was signed just by him no other comments. I had another just like it that sold for only $150, cause he had some comments.

I sold the book Troy signed by the author for a little more than $1300. The book alone without being signed is like a $300 book...and people buy it everyday.

Seany-izzle · 04-05-2005, 02:39 PM

whaaaaaaaat just for books?!!? damn, maybe if i talk to the right people i could sell it for more lol..but i dont think thats gonna happen for atleast 10 years.

dohcvtec_accord · 04-05-2005, 03:09 PM

Who the hell is Dimebag Darrel?

92civicb18b1 · 04-05-2005, 03:14 PM

yea you probably have a wait before its worth anything.

You might get $20 for it now.

If you really wan to know, throw it on Ebay with a retarded high reserve price, that way, if no one hits it, you don't have to sell it, but hell if osomeone wants to give you say $3000 you can dump that puppy.

Pantera isn't exactly my type of music.

Edit: And if anyone is going to do any banning around here, it certainly isn't going to be you.

Leave that shit to me. Amateurs!

I agree with the high reserve, test it out, you're out like 2-3 bucks if it dosen't sell, big deal.

Battle Pope · 04-05-2005, 10:53 PM

Fine. Bask in your moderator's glory for now. But I will return!

adnoh · 04-06-2005, 12:49 PM

It's really depending on what the poster is signed with. If it is signed with a ball-point pen, the value on the open market will decrease to less than if it wasn't signed. A ball-point will make indentations on the paper and this is considered "damage".
If it is signed with a felt-tip marker or something that doesn't make pressure indentations, like a gold or silver metallic felt-tip marker, then you will get a higher price.

I found this out the hard way when I went to go sell my autographed Mark Messier rookie card. It was signed with a ball-point.
