Signed shirt possibly for sale

cafcfan1990

Hi all, 

I might be selling a signed shirt. It’s the Mesh home kit from 1998, signed around Christmas 98 from all the squad. 

Will absolutely kill me to sell it to be honest given it’s personal value to me involving my grandad who bought the shirt for me and died days after the play off final (hence how it became signed, very decent from the club as you’d expect from that time). However the last 12 months have been pretty horrendous for me and personal circumstances mean I have to consider it. 

Not sure if anybody interested? I can get a picture of it over the next couple of days. 

Cheers 

forgot to add it’s got Kinsella and the number 8 on the back.

Sorry to read that you need to sell.

I'd suggest speaking to @cafc999 and @charltonnick about valuations and best ways to sell

Both are museum trustees so can give you a clear and impartial steer.

Presume ebay is the best bet, prices for stuff like this are way down from the peak 2/3 years ago but still go for good money.

That was my concern tbh, I had a quick peek on eBay yesterday but thought I’d give it a whirl on here. Given its sentimental value I don’t want it to go for peanuts

Just an idea, but would an auction on CL work and raise the best price, there are a lot of good people on here who would be interested I am sure...🤷‍♂️

Or we all chip in and it finds a special place in the museum…🤔

Or we all chip in and OP keeps his shirt

I'll put in a tenner if that starts the ball rolling.

Sorry to hear this 1990, I sold my collection, 30 odd signed shirts earlier this year, framed or not it broke my fucking heart to do it.  Needs must, i needed the cash.

All i have left is the framed and signed home Redbus shirt, my kid brother bought for me at a Rangers auction do, when he was up there in the navy.  Cannot bare to be seperated from that.



Good luck mate.
