If it matters, they are having a 17% off sale. So maybe that will cover the shipping? Doesn't work with belts or plaques. |

Saw this today. Very cool, but nothing I would spend that much money on.
I've never felt the need to have signed memorabilia unless I had it signed in person. It just feels too impersonal to me. Even if you meet someone and they don't personalize the autograph, it's always a memory you can hold onto. With this, you know they were just signing them rapid fire, so to me, it loses a lot of its luster.

It's pretty cool, but not for that kind of money. I don't really dig the main photo thats signed either. If anything I might get one of those Wrestlemania plaques they usually come out with after the event that come with a piece of the rope, or mat, or whatever. Anyone remember how much those usually run? I'm assuming about the same as this one... The Mania plaques are usually $99 (half of what this one is) AND it includes event-used memorabilia from a significant historic moment. I don't understand the logic behind their $200 price point for this signed 8x10 in a frame. It's not even a unique photograph because it's the same as the Night of Champions DVD cover, I mean, come on! At least have an unreleased photo of punk posed on a turnbuckle or something. I'm sure a lot of people will buy this in the heat of the moment and regret it after this thing gets discounted in two weeks. I don't see it selling out soon. Hell, if they wanted to make this plaque special, they could have easily added event-used rope, mat, t-shirt, or pieces of used trunks. SOMETHING! $200 is way too much to ask. They had a lot of potential for this item, but it's a way lazy product, imo, and they're being really greedy by offering a marginal product that's being marked up for something outstanding. After Mania, you could get two different plaques for the same price that are autographed by the two main event champions at the event with a large piece of mat on it. Undertaker's plaque is $99 and is signed (super rare to get an authentic auto from him) AND event-used segment of rope. That is a much migher value, imo. |

I got it. I've been following CM Punk career for 10 years now, so this was a no brainer for me. I love that they only produced 434 of them. I know some people won't be fond of the price, but to me it's worth it, especially with Paul's autograph on there too. And if I ever decide I don't want it, that limited number will help it sell for more than I paid anyway.

If the guy in the comparison picture isn't a midget, it's a lot larger than the Wrestlemania plaques as well.

I'd like to see a DVD on the title reign too. With comments from Punk, Cena, Rock, Austin, Triple H, Vince, Bret, Shawn, Heyman etc. Maybe even Bruno. Stuff about comparing it to other reigns, how momentous that length is. And some honest stuff about how he flopped as a babyface and the first half of his reign was only possible because it was low-pressure midcard stuff... Where they didn't need to do title changes because they had bigger wrestlers and stories (Rock, Cena, Lesnar, Johnny Ace etc) getting people's attention... And how that first half then tied in to the latter half of the reign, which was pretty awesome.
