Selling for charity is different than selling and keeping the money for yourself. I would sell for charity, if I was going to sell at all.

I think selling autos you get ttm is just plain wrong because you dont know the authenticity of them. However I don't mind selling autos I get IP because I know they're 100% real. Also, getting autos IP takes up a lot of time and gas driving around town so I need to lower the costs any way possible. I would never ask a celeb to sign more than 2 photos though.

true - why not sell the doubles you have for a charity? YOu can always donate them to charity auctions.

Hi,
If you get doubles, why not sell them for charity?

[quote="Fudgemonkey"]I'm mixed on this topic...For example, when I write emails to celebs, I tend to write more than one by accident (I can never keep track of who I write to)...So now I have double Bob Dole, Al Roker, John Travolta, and Jim Davis. I have no need for two, so I think it makes sense to sell them.

I can see accidentally getting doubles through e-mail (but come on, who would buy an Al Roker? lol), but a lot of people just like to take advantage of the good will of celebrities and get as many as possible. I don't think that is right. I don't think that it's right even to sell stuff to fund autograph collecting. Don't make the hobby harder for others because you don't want to spend $8 on a book of stamps. Selling autographs is what makes a lot of celebrities not sign. As an autograph collector you want them to sign. By selling the autograph, you're ulitmately making this hobby harder on yourself.

Personally anything I get IP I will never sell. And most things TTM I won't sell either (unless they are not authentic like pp, ap, secretarial, which I have no interest in).

With autographs that I have purchased, I don't have a problem with selling the item. For example, sometimes you purchase an item, but after a while you get the chance to meet the celebrity IP. In that case I have no problem re-selling the previously purchased Autograph.

However collecting Autographs just to make a profit isn't something I would do.

i would never sell any of my autographs i am going to auction off(pending a succes which i have good odds of getting thou i didnt send yet) a couple robin williams autographs which i am asking from him for a charity auction but i am also writing him for autos for myslef so yes i will have his auto to that way and hes a awsome signer also

I don't agree with selling autographs. If someone has taken the time to send you a signed photo you should have the decency to keep it. However I have purchased autographs in the past and I have sold a couple of my purchases. I'd never sell anything that someone had taken the time to sign especially for me though. Hope that makes sense {thumb2}

so in that way it;s good to sell your double auto's for money so you can buy new equipment for your autograph collection , dont you guys agree?
