Signed card collector here. Yes is there is great value in Modern signed cards, especially rookie cards. I highly recommend getting a membership at sports collectors.net if anything for the private/public signing listings.

Thanks for the recommendation. I personally like the look of the aftermarket autos more than the pack pulled ones. Seems like there's more work involved in getting the aftermarket ones (noting that there are questions about authenticity swirling around the space) -- and more risk (and more reward?) in getting one on a higher grade rookie card.
