Are signed shirts worth anything?

So it could be a Stephen Crainey signed Scotland shirt or a Lionel Messi match worn signed Argentina shirt, probably not much difference in value to be fair, I'd say you're a millionaire either way.

Also depends on the match, the one from the '86 QF will be worth far more than one from a friendly against Bolivia.
 
It's like saying "I'm the agent of a professional footballer, what are you willing to pay him?". A little more detail would be beneficial.
 
I’ve got a match worn Steve Hetzke No 5 shirt from Watford away in the early 80’s.
Probably of little value to anyone else, but certainly wouldn’t swap it even for a Messi World Cup final shirt!
 
I have a shirt with most of the 2010 Wembley team and Ollie's signature, it's the home Carbrini shirt not the white Wembley shirt.

My nephew obtained the signatures from SG.

I offered him £50 which he refused, with my brother telling him he'll get more than that with CA and DJ's signatures, I left it at that.

The shirt is now framed and in pride of place in my bar 😁 so yes signed shirts are worth something, whatever someone is prepared to pay for them 👍
 
My cousin has got Gazza's shirt from the 1990 semi final match against Germany when he cried after getting booked. It came with a letter of authenticity and he collected it from Jeff Winter the ex referee paying £5000 . Part of me thinks it was some scam to make a few quid and that there maybe more than one fan around the country that claims to have Gazza's shirt from that day....
 
They are only worth whatever someone is willing to pay for them...Much like anything. Blackpool FC shirts are only of interest to Blackpool fans who are daft enough to fork out money for them.

I think because essentially it's a £2 t-shirt that cannot be worn and is for decorative purposes only. And when I say decorative I mean that loosely because it's only of any beauty to Blackpool supporter.

yeh i see that but that could be applied to a lot of our possessions we buy. Not that i have many, one match worn signed Charlie shirt is my sum total. I have stacks of bfc programmes that are mainly worth jack shit but not a chance i will get rid of them even though the Mrs almost daily asks me to.

When you by stuff from the club shop (shirts, progams dog leads etc) your are monetarily suporting the football club. Buying a shirt of someone else is supporting the buyer. As I said if you are daft enough to fork out silly money then feel free.
 
I have 3 signed shirts. A junior framed shirt with all the prem team signatures on, an adult shirt with prem team signatures on but Matt Philips signed it twice 🤷‍ and my pride and joy a signed framed Angel shirt that’s the only one I have up on the wall. Probably worth nothing to most but I value them very highly

The vast majority will be worth the square root of feck all*.


* AVFTT caveat - I am fully aware that many supporters will get tremendous sentimental value out of the tops that they've got.

I am also aware that Steve Hodge got 7 million sheets for Maradona's "Hand of God" top.
 
You've got the question of authenticity too. Even most Certificates of Authenticity are a bit feeble, just a printed card saying its authentic with a scribbled signature.
They're nice things to have, but I think they'd be difficult to sell for good money
