Armanti Edwards Autograph Session

[jasonluckydog]

Hello folks, My name is Scott and I'm the owner of Scott's Collectibles in Kannapolis NC. IF anyone has any questions about the appearance feel free to let me know. I will do my best to answer them.

To answer those I saw, Why is there a fee? We are paying Armanti for his time to come into the store. We are also doing significant advertising including ad's in 7 newspapers including the Charlotte Observer. There is a very significant investment in advertising, close to approaching 5 figures. After recouping our investment we will be making an additional donation to the charity that Armanti chooses.

What charity will inscription money go to? As soon as Armanti informs me which charity he has selected I will let everyone know. As soon as we know we plan to invite the charity to be at the store that day and we hope to raise a fair amount for the charity.

Why can a player refuse to sign certain items? There's usually one person out there who brings something of questionable content, this is to prevent that. Rest assured that Mini Helmets, Helmets, Footballs, Trading Cards, the basic staples of autograph collecting are allowed.

Why should someone pay? Some people only want to go get an autograph for free at camp, practice, etc and thats certainly within your right. Some people do not have the time or desire to spend an entire day going to camp, etc. We are offering people a chance to meet Armanti and obtain an autograph in a more controlled setting.

Personalizations or inscriptions, why is there a fee? So that we can raise money for charity. IF you go to any major autograph show there is generally a fee for inscriptions, we feel a $5 donation to charity is a fair price considering what many others charge.

Trust me I would love to bring in a player and have them sign for free but honestly the costs associated with an event such as this make it where its not feasible. We do not want to turn a profit off of autograph fees, we simply would like to recoup our investment and then give some money to a charity.

There will be a special 5 X 7 Playoff Prestige Armanti Edwards printed on Photo Paper directly from Panini that is a wrapper redemption for purchasing packs of 2010 Panini Football Cards that day. There are just over 100 copies of this printed by Panini and you can only get it by buying 5 packs the day of the event. As most card collectors know Armanti did not have a Prestige Rookie, Panini was kind enough to design this for the event.

If anyone has any questions feel free to call the store at (704) 784-2277 and ask for Scott. I will not be in on this Saturday but I am generally there Sunday - Friday.

I can also be reached via email @ [email protected].

I live in Charleston could I buy the 5 packs and shipping and you could send it too me?

If not thats cool.

Thanks'

I just bought his Elite rookie auto card and it cost me $20 just for it.

Much appreciated for the heads-up on things. Best of luck with it. Whether you want a profit or not, odds are you'll get one.
