    I'm about to get my hands on a county jerzey signed by the entire team members(one of the majour counties in terms of success in all-Ireland). I was thinking of selling it on ebay in order to raise extra funds. Just wondering in terms of this (a signed jerzey) if I did go about selling it what would be the best way of generating revenue? Hopin some american with more money than sense comes along or try auctioning it off? Or would it be more worth it if I just kept it myself?

    I would appreciate any feedback, cheers :)

    You might get some interest from some bars abroad with a connection to that county, but there's few fans that would be willing to shell out for what most could possibly get themselves after a game.
    You could also donate it to a charity who could auction it for a sum more than it's true value and thereby earning funds for a worthy cause if you were so inclined.

    you may get some decent money for it on ebay. I recently seen a Cork county jersey sell for nearly 200 euro on it because it had a number on the back.

    Its a shame the players have been fooled into giving such a jersey to someone out to make money off their backs, rather than to a real fan who would treasure such an item.

    actually i got it as a present off a company. I was thinking of holding onto it or selling it, still havent decided. Since im currently unemployed and the company I'm working for arent paying me in cash (more of an experience appreciated) I was just trying to generate some funds.

    Such an embarassing attempt at raising money.
