    Could I ask a quick question, re, pricing prizes, how do you price a signed item?

    It's priceless lol. Go to an auction site and compare ;)

    Postman's just posted a magazine through my letterbox. It had a big 'P' written on it which usually means there's a parcel/packet for the address so I opened the door and asked the postman who was leaving if he had a parcel for me. He said, "NO". I then asked why he'd written a 'P' on my magazine, he then said, "Oh, my bag was full so I left it behind. I'll get someone to bring it later" :mad:

    I bet it won't be delivered today :(

    Just wondering why you want to know. Unless you are going to sell it, does it really matter? I recently won a Wii game that was signed by Jedward. It is a good game, but I reckon if I wanted to sell it, it would be worth less than if the cover didn't have scribble on it LOL.

    If you win something that is signed, keep the letter you get with it, or print off a copy of the email to say you've won it to authenticate the item. A while ago I won a signed Anime (?) book, there were quite a few on ebay that didn't sell, but mine did for quite a lot more than was being asked for the others.
