If you missed out on autograph vouchers for Orioles FanFest, you’re not completely screwed. They’re available on eBay, but could cost you up to $350 — okay, you’re pretty screwed.
The O’s will have four stations featuring 3-4 current or former players rotating on four one hour long shifts. That sentence sounds more confusing than it should be. Here’s a visual:
The most expensive eBay listing I found available included two vouchers (Chris Davis, Steve Johnson and Johnny Monell at 3:20 PM and Tommy Hunter, Brian Matusz and Chris Tillman at 3:20 PM). The auction price starts at $250 with a Buy It Now price of $350.
To no surprise, Davis, Manny Machado and Adam Jones appear to be the names that are pulling in the most money on the secondary markets. A voucher to Machado is listed for $149, while one for Jones can be purchased for $125.
Face value for these vouchers? 20 bucks.
Probably listed by the same people that had 30 Cal Ripken Statues for sale in 2012. They beat the system, and real fans have to pay for it.
Nah, real fans don’t need to pay for it. Just don’t buy it.
