Peter -

The short answer is: it depends on the collectors' point of view. A card collector will treat the autograph as writing on the card & therefore it will be worth very little to them and they won't want the card (even if EX otherwise). An autograph collector will want & pay a lot for these.

There is a huge market of people that specifically collect signed trading cards both in person/shows & thru the mail. To them it doesn't matter if the card is a reprint card or authentic - they just want the card signed.

The rule of thumb as stated previously is NOT to get an expensive card signed.

Hope that helps.
