Gallntfox Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 I heard Riggins on Triple X today pimping his autograph signing at Sports Card Heroes in Laurel tomorrow from 1-2pm. I looked at their website tonight to get the details and saw the following information... A SCH IN-STORE EVENT Sports Card Heroes is once again proud to Present: Honorary HOGS Member John Riggins March 3, 2007 Pricing for Mr. Riggins is as follows $125.00 Small Flat $150.00 Large Flat / Mini Helmets $175.00 Premium **Fee Includes (1) Inscription (John Riggins provided courtesy of Sports Placement Service, Inc. Los Angeles, CA) How do you all feel about these prices? I know that John Riggins is a DC icon, a member of the HOF, and Super Bowl MVP but as a Skins fan would you feel that you were getting "value" at those prices? As for me...I'll be in line.

autograph Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 It would be worth getting an autographed NFL football. That would be a keepsake :logo: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlinginSammy HOF '63 Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 I got his, along with ten others from the SB 17 team, on a helmet. His by far was the most expensive of all names on it. Even Theismann charged only around $40. All these autographs I got come from Sports Card Heroes. Great place to getyour stuff signed AND they take stuff in the mail to be signed and returned back to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gracelander Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 $125 for an 8x10 is to steep for me. Maybe I can catch him coming out of a bar (if he still does that). :eaglesuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChampSkinsFanatic Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 I got it for free, he was coming out of the bathroom at a train station, that was like 4 years ago I looked for the thread but I guess it got deleted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are these guys a reliable source (honest, etc...) ? Has anyone ever used their mail service? Any other recommendations? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scruffylookin Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 I don't want to hear John Riggins ever again blast Dan Snyder for his "schemes" to make money. Then again, since I don't listen to his awful radio show, I guess I won't have to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has anyone ever used their mail service? Any other recommendations? yes, I'm in Illinois and send stuff all the time. I've been there in person twice and the athletes sign all mail orders before they sign for the public. In fact I was first in line and sat there and witnessed the athletes signing mail orders and when they were done signing they would box up people's stuff. Just be sure to send return postage for them. Yes I witnessed mail order stuff signed. They are legit. Also I witnesed these guys signing helmets and pics that they were going to sell in the store.

Brianbien83 Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 I went to the signing as well. I think his prices are high, but I was more than willing to pay. I'm putting together a piece with an 8x10 each of Riggins, Williams and Rypien to showcase the three Super Bowl MVPs. Next time he comes around, I'll be splurging for an authentic full size helmet.

EvoSkins Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 I was going to the bar across the street after rugby practice and I saw that Riggo was signing autographs. I didn't want anything signed and just wanted to say hi. I came in right at the end of the session and he was signing a bunch of things for the store. After I left i heard how much he was charging for an autograph, I was taken aback. Over $100 for a signature? Not in a million years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
