How do you get autographed baseballs?

Answer 1

You can obtain signatures from ballplayers in person at autograph shows in your local area. You can find information on autograph shows online. they do charge a fee depending on the ballplayer you could pay anywhere from $30. -$100. on average. They also charge different rates depending on the item you have signed. Flat items, and photos are the cheapest, baseballs are the average price, and equipment like bats, and jerseys are the highest.

You can get autographs at the ballpark for free but you will have plenty of competition, and have to be at the right place at the right time. A lot of fans line up around the players entrance at the ballpark. some players will stop and sign. They can't sign for everyone, but will sign a few. Before the game during batting practice some players will sign Autographs along the stands. Make your way down to the field and find a good spot, and maybe you'll get lucky. Be sure to have a Baseball, and a ballpoint pen ready.

You could also buy autographs online but be careful. You get what you pay for. If the price is too cheap it could be a fake. Only buy signatures that have been properly authenticated by a trusted company like PSA/DNA, James Spence authentic (JSA) MLB, or Upper Deck. Companies like this use holograms on the item to assure you are getting the item that was authenticated.

If you are buying from a dealer that has a private website, be sure that they list contact information, phone number, address, and can be easily contacted. Private auction houses are a great place to buy, and can be trusted. You could find a lot of good deals on eBay but be careful. There are a lot of fakes, so only buy from sellers that have good feedback.
