A quick spin through the autographed items available at the Philadelphia Phillies online store:
Item: Five-ball set with autographs of 2008 Phillies team
Price: $2,789.99
Worth it: Probably. You could probably get season tickets for the next two years for that price, but the 2014 and 2015 teams won't be as good as that 2008 World Champion squad.
Item: Roy Halladay, Cy Young winner, autographed baseball
Price: $557.99
Worth it: Nope. I mean, it's awesome, but the regular Roy Halladay autographed ball is only $379.99. The extra "CY 2010" costs almost $30 more a character.
Item: Ryan Howard autographed baseball
Price: $309.99
Worth it: Apparently. The 2008 World Series edition of this ball costs $20 more, and one with an official MLB hologram sticker costs another $147. And each strikeout drops the ball's price by another dime.
Item: Mike Schmidt autographed baseball
Price: $177.99
Worth it: Are you kidding me? I can have two of these for the price of one Ryan Howard signature? Has the world gone mad?
Item: Joe Blanton autographed baseball
Price: $149.99
Worth it: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. No.
Item: John Mayberry Jr. autographed baseball
Price: $74.99
Worth it: Eh. Just wait a few more months, you'll probably be able to pay Mayberry $30 to mow your lawn instead.
