A question for programme and memorabilia collectors

Sun Jun 21, 2015 9:15 am

Every year since the death of my closest friend in 2005, we've hosted a charity golf event and auction in his honour. The auction usually takes place at my local, the Butchers Arms in Rhiwbina, directly after the golf event. The proceeds go to the Diabetes Centre at Heath Hospital, where he was treated before he passed.

Among the items that have been donated for this year's auction is a copy of the Wales v Belgium programme signed by all of the members of the Welsh squad. This was donated by Ian Mitchell, who is the team's performance psychologist and my mate's cousin.

Given the upsurge of interest in the Welsh team at present and the historic nature of the victory over the Belgians, we reckon it would probably be better to auction this particular item on eBay rather than in the pub.

My question for the programme and memorabilia collectors out there is this: how much do you reckon the signed Wales v Belgium programme would be likely to raise? I appreciate this is a difficult question to answer, but any sensible estimates would be appreciated so that we can set an appropriate reserve on eBay.

Thanks in advance.

Not a great deal sadly, it is a shame you could not have got Bales's shirt signed now that would be a different proposition.My guestimate £30-50 I hope I am wrong..good luck!

Dave is it signed by both Countries ?

Including of course Gareth Bale,Ramsey etc?

In an Auction, who knows, 3 weeks after the Cardiff v Leeds game that programme fully signed fetched £800 :ayatollah:

If it is fully signed and with the right people there it could fetch well over a £100, as the Belgium game is still high up there at the moment.

What's that got to do with this thread ?

I would say at least £400 especially if it is signed by Rambo and Bale
