EVERYBODY knew Manning was going to the HOF. Why wouldn’t collectors have already baked that into price of collectibles? I could understand a slight bump but I find “considerable” a bit curious.One last thing….obviously since he’s going into the HOF tomorrow, items have increased in value considerably.
I got a signed game jersey

i disagree with a lot that has been said here. i do not believe prices will be increasing dramatically. as someone said earlier, i think that everything has already been baked into his prices. As for autographed stuff, the reason it will not spike is that there is so much available. will there be a small bump? probably for a short while, but his stuff will settle in eventually.
well, i do not collect "game used" memorabilia so i am not someone to have a discussion about that. if you want to discuss his UT Trading cards, we can talk. but hey, we all collect what we collect. the reason i do not look for "game used" is that if i did not see it come off his back, or have paperwork from UT stating the history of it, i have no trust in whether it is game used or not and have to lean to it not being game used. i know where 4 of his game used jerseys are, and the only reason i trust them is that i know how many 0's were on the checks these people wrote to UT during that time. Press Pass, Donruss, Upper Deck, and Panini has claimed they have had game used jerseys they used for cards, and Donruss claims that one is a Citrus Bowl Jersey based on the cards I have seen with pieces of the patch in them, and i am confident i know where one citrus bowl jersey is, so perhaps you have the other one. but i read where many of the game used the trading card companies had were bought on the secondary market, so trust what you will.
Which ones are you still looking for, Loomis?You and I simply can agree to disagree….and that’s ok. My jerseys are photo matched. I can prove, beyond a doubt, my jerseys are the ones worn in the game. Further, if you know where 4 of his game used jerseys are….I’ll pay well to put me in touch with the owners. I am not saying you’re wrong and I’m not calling BS. I’m simply saying if you know where all these jerseys are, I’ll make it well worth your time to introduce me to the people who have them.
I must respectfully disagree with you. As someone that collects game used memorabilia has done so for 20 years…including doing authentication work for multiple auction houses…including disqualifying over half a million dollars worth of bogus memorabilia…and as having possibly the #1 Manning game used collection in America, I feel I’m qualified to comment on the value of his items. If I told you how much I paid for his AFC Championship jersey and how much I paid for his Citrus Bowl game worn jersey…and how much I’ve been offered for them, you’d be shocked. Trust me, his game used gear has jumped considerably.
Good for you. Just a thought, and I'm unsure if you even live near Knoxville or whatever, but with Peyton going in the NFL HOF this year UT could and should honor him at a game.In today’s market, my Peyton jersey collection is worth at LEAST 500K. However I would not take 500K for it.

With your collection and Peyton and his family as a draw, maybe the school would sponsor a "meet, greet, and look at the collection" as a high dollar fund raising idea. A little smooze, pictures, etc..... and money for whatever Peyton wants it to go to.
Just a thought. You may prefer the collection to be more private, I understand that.
