Does anyone keep APs?

Unread post by Kyle787 »

Just curious, I'm new to collecting and I've started to get back some replies (2 AP and 2 personalized authentic from less popular celebs so far). Not sure whether or not I should keep them. Thoughts?

I was planning to maybe protect & frame the legit ones and album the APs- or throw them out depending.

I've never gotten an AP, but I do have 2 secs. I didnt throw away the secs, but the I just tossed them in the back of a binder that I keep my collection in.

I wouldn't reccomend throwing out the AP's, as they are pretty darn close to to authentics. You can if you want, but I probably wouldnt

I keep absolutely everything, even all the envelopes. An AP is pretty much just a PP and in some ways better because you can get your own items autopenned making it a bit more unique. An autopen is a copy of someone's signature and is done by a machine where as a sec can be forged by absolutely anyone so is quite worthless. 8)

No keep them! To throw them away, that is so selfish!
(u ask for an autograph and they give you one...keep it!)
Britney Spears==>> 6 #1 albums. 2 diamond albums. 8 platinum albums. 400+ awards. 200M+ records sold. Britney has sold over 45 million records this decade despite only releasing three albums. Globally, Britney has more #1 singles than any other female artist except Madonna and Rihanna. "Oops!...I Did It Again" by Britney is the 5th best selling album of the 2000s decade worldwide. Britney is the only female artist to chart her first seven albums in the top two of the Billboard 200. Britney has achieved at least one #1 album in 3 different decades (90's, 00's, 10's). Britney is the first solo female artist from the 90's to reach 1 billion Spotify streams. Despite NOT even being a single, 'Tom's Diner', ft. Britney , has become Giorgio Moroders best-selling digital track. 2015 Billboard Awards ratings reached a 14-year high, with numbers peaking during Britney's performance. She IS the princess of Pop.

IMO I think its selfish to get a reply from someone (may it be a PP) and throw it away. That's IN MY OPINION! Don't quote me about my opinion.

I'd consider anything a fake that was not directly hand signed by the celeb (PP, stamp, sec or AP).
