You are only lying to yourself at this point. Think about this rationally. The markup from the unsigned Hardcover was on average $2-3. While, the actual hand-signed limited edition retails for $50+ more than the unsigned hardcover. She isn't going to hand-sign thousands of pages and only mark them up $2-3 from the retail unsigned edition. There appears to be only one autopen pattern used, out of a known 5-6 that Palin currently has, which tells you even her staff did not want to waste time making these look authentic since they are all the same.

well my opinion is

too.

all of these are autopens. i mean really?

autopens aren't always 100% exact of each other, and they can switch the pens whenever they want in the machine.

all of the ones i've seen look way too consistant. i mean wouldn't a signed copy be limited? even that being said, if she signed so many there would be HUGE differences in the signatures... at least different enough to be obviously hand signed.

this book is a HUGE HUGE FAIL

I would say that a full signature from her would be worth around $150-$250, all depending on the neatness and what it's on. If the signature is comparable to the signed book I have, it could easily end up selling in this range. Full Sarah Palin signatures can fetch high prices due to the fact that she doesn't sign that way anymore. If anything, it seems her signature keeps getting sloppier and sloppier as time goes on, making the full signature highly desirable among collectors.

However, autograph selling prices are not fixed and fluxuate frequently. For someone like Sarah Palin, you could easily get a lot of money for her signature if it was sold at the right time when there is a demand for her signature. For example, on the day John McCain introduced her as his running mate in 2008, her signature was selling on eBay for triple its value. There was even a demand for her Autopen signature that day.

As for the personalization, it all depends on the collector or buyer. Some prefer simple signatures, while others like to have as much handwriting as possible.

When her first book came out around this time last year, the publisher sold 5,000 specially bound copies with authentic signatures. However, the same is not true for her latest release.

Other than signatures obtained in person, these signed books were the only authentic signatuares Sarah Palin made available since before the 2008 election. In early 2009 there were personalized signatures coming out of her office, but those were determined to be signed by her father.

If you can find one and you are willing to make the investment, you should purchase a pre-2008 Sarah Palin signature. They are much neater than what you would get from her now.

Here are some examples from my collection:

Limited Edition Book (authentic signature):

Early 2009 TTM response (secretarial signature):

Pre-2008 signed book (authentic signature):

Fall 2008 in person autograph:

Also, I've seen several photos of things such as photos that are authentically signed by her and the signatures usually all look the same just as anyone's would. I've also seen photos of the signed books from different people and the signatures have slight differences. Even some of them are signed in a permanent black Sharpie marker while others are signed with a black ink pen.

These books are not authentic and are autopenned. If you have seen stuff signed by her that all looks the same, its autopenned. There are not many authentically signed items of her on the market, since she has been using a few different autopens for the past couple of years, and is tough In-Person without cameras around her.
