re: LSU Collectible Mini Helmet Advice?

You might be right, but I did bring it by a collectible store and I didn't get a price from him and I wasn't going to sell it to him. I just wanted to get a starting point and I didn't get one. That's why I asked here....
But I asked him EXACTLY what you're saying and he said that the other names wouldn't have an effect on the others.
Maybe someone else will come by later and reply and confirm what you're saying.

Multi-signed items only hold real value if all members are "valuable" and hold a connection.
Think "bat signed by all the members of the 500 Home Run Club" or "basketball signed by the NBA Top 50 players."
Things like full team signed baseballs will often sell cheaper than a single signed baseball of the star of the team.
You have a minihelmet signed by "some guys". I wouldn't be surprised if it sold for $100 -or- went unsold at $40.
Moral of the story: Few sports collectibles are liquid investments, and those that are liquid, are often so at a price lower than original purchase price.

Do you have a C.O.A.?

COAs are generally not worth the paper they're printed on - unless it's an authentication by a third party authenticator (i.e. PSA, John Spence, etc.)
They're good for making rubes feel better about their purchase, though. Many purchasers of autographed items either self-authenticate or send to PSA, JSA for quick opinions.

Man im a huge collectable guy... the fact is that its always worth more to us than it is to someone else. Honestly u need to start it low to create a bidding environment. And its a mini helmet with 15 autos. Probably not that eye appealing on such a small surface.

It's not even worth trying to sell. You won't get over $50. Just save it for your children.

Don't give up the dream of that personal space. The kids will grow up and stop tearing shite up. Look beyond tomorrow and keep it.

People are right that a multisigned item isnt worth what combined individual signatures of those guys would be worth. Hard to say without seeing a picture, but you should be able to get around $80-100 for that. You never get out of a multisigned item what you put into it.
for example: I just picked up a full size helmet signed by 23 Heisman winners. All with legit certification from steiner and tristar shows. The helmet itself costs $200. The owner probably put about $1000 into it paying for all the signatures, but i traded him about $400 worth of stuff for it.

Actual market price for an Addai mini is < $50.

They would retail for about $25.00 ea. in a dealer store. Plus you have to show proof for every signature.
Posted on 7/21/14 at 12:09 pm to YouAre8Up
I'm just telling you what we have ours going for. We have 2 of these and one has already sold.
Posted on 7/21/14 at 12:32 pm to Johnny3tears
Do you have any kind of COA or photos of players signing it? That will drive the cost up. Most autographs sold on e-bay are fake.
Definitely start your bidding low. That will get more people watching/bidding on it and will drive the price up.

Yeah we have a COA with it. I think he can at least +200 for it. Honestly I would keep it for the memories.
