What price should I sell my Jersey for?

Here's the link: http://www.adverts.ie/other-antiques-collectables/signed-real-madrid-2007-2008-home-jersey/1660693

I know I went over the top with the 3,750 Euro Selling price, I know I have to put that price down WAY Lower. What would you guys say I should sell it for? I got offered 2 grand for it once, I guess that was the reason I thought I would get 3 grand for it now. Well, What do you guys think? It has
Raul, Ruud Van Nistelrooy, Pepe, Guti, Casillas and Robinho on the shirt, Some of the best players going. All replies would be appreciated. Thanks

Have you got proof it was signed them players?
Even so it's worth something in the hundreds not the thousands

A student who's dad was friends with the president of Real gave it to me when he came back over.

Sadly very few of those players are as popular now as they were then, even if you had a COA with it I wouldn't expect more than €500 without maybe €300-€350.

A COA means sweet FA, Anyone can make up a COA on a computer with MS word, the only proof i'd accept is a picture of the players signing the jersey

It might have been a good idea to suss out the price before placing the ad.

No-one who reads the comments is going to give you anything near your asking price as you clearly pulled the figure out of the air and seem unwilling to listen to the helpful advice others are giving you.

Also telling people who have been helpful to you to move on comes across as rude imo.

But does that prove it either? It could be any jersey being signed, not that particular one. I'm not having a go, but am genuinely curious.

Jesus, Whats your problem? I admitted myself that 3750 Euro for a jersey was way to much. What Helpful advice? This is the first post I put out there to do with my Jersey I read the comment others left me on Adverts and I'm thankful for the comments people left on this thread, It may come across as being rude but I did not intend for it to be that way.

Not 100% either, COA's though are fake, anything offered with a COA you can guarantee is not real, The problem is so many people are selling these fake signed jersey's on ebay and the likes.

If you're thinking about buying a signed jersey always check the signatures and try and match them with the players signatures online, they're easily found

Also, I obviously am not going to get anything after I realized the price I put out in the beginning...

And your 800-1200 is way too much too

Jesus, Whats your problem? .

I have no problem thanks. I took the time to read your thread and look at your ad and tried to give a helpfull opinion.

If you can't see how your coming across as rude then that would be your problem.

Think about it. I place an add for a car for sale for 3750, then lots of people tell me that it's worth maybe a tenth of that. I then randomly pick 3 or 4 different prices, none as low as suggested by others, who seem to know what they're talking about. Everyone viewing the add can see this conversation and me making up a price as I go along. I then tell people who aren't interested in paying the latest price, that I've plucked out of the air, to go away. How do I look as a seller?

You should always take a look at eBay prices for similar items if you're in doubt.

I know that it's traditional to massively overprice things on Adverts.ie but .....:)

I said 'Move on please if you're not interested', That's not being rude. It might sound rude to you but not to me. I appreciated the replies people gave back. Look, I'm not going into an argument of 'Was it rude or not'...

Come on, 31 Euro? I've seen dublin jerseys go higher than that. I might be fake. Like above a lad said 'If a coa is included, You're guaranteed it's fake'. That might or might not be true though.

As a general observation.........

All of those players sign hundreds if not thousands of jerseys in their careers so I really can't see how such an item can have a high value, given that today's players will soon be replaced by others and their star value will fade rapidly.

I bet there's people watching the Champions League final tonight asking - who's that geezer handing out the medals? Eh, that would be Michel Platini!
