Wow! I would love to own this!

Too bad this thing would cost more than what I paid for my car. I would love to own this. This is a nice signature too. I have seen one other, but the signature was a mess.

    Nice sig and the card looks pretty nice too. Great piece.

    It would seem you could pay $700 for a PSA 8 quality card and then a few hundred for Jordan's autograph, no? Or does he not autograph cards anymore?

    That would definitely be the way to go. However, I just saw a couple of PSA 8's go between $484 and $521. I am in the market for one and have been watching them for a few weeks. I wonder how in the world you get his signature?

    TTM it's all preprints, though earlier in his career he sent authentic (?) cut sigs on plain paper. I've still got one somewhere. Not sure how you'd reach him now.

    It's hard to find Jordan to get his signature now a days... He'll never do shows (why would he? he has more money than God!) I think the only place I've heard of Jordan signing was at a kids camp - for a couple hundred bucks you could send you kids to a Jordan sponsored basketball camp and each kid got 1 auto from Jordan (if I remember right).

    Unless you know someone that’s corporately sponsors Jordan – I would say good luck getting him to sign anything!

    Shane,

    You shouldn't have to pay anywhere near that price to get a 1986 Fleer Michael Jordan PSA/DNA. I bought this one earlier this year and it cost me $1525.00 and I've seen at least one more sell this year for around the same amount. Granted, mine doesn't have as nice a signature on it as the one you linked to, but I bet you could find one a whole lot cheaper than $7500.00

    Jordan does do a flight school for children at Santa Barbara, CA at least once a year. The tuition cost at this years camp was $610.00 and included the camp and one autograph from Jordan on any item of your choice that is Upper Deck Authenticated on the spot. If you have a child, would be a great experience for them and a great UDA autograph for you.

    Agreed. I've got a few friends that send their kids to Jordan's camp every summer, and it's always a great experience for them. The auto is a bonus, but would certainly cover the camp fees. For this area it's very reasonable for a weeks camp.

    That is very sweet.

    As all of you probably can tell, I'm a huge fan of the 86 Fleer set. I've thought about trying to complete a set of autos before, but thinking about getting the Jordan usually puts an end to that. Most of the players in the set are very easy to get though... either TTM or by going to a few NBA games.

    I might just give it a try and see how far I can go.

    Really? I thought there are quite a few guys in that set won't sign TTM like Barkley and Ewing... I also heard that Drexler stop signing TTM now.

    I'm sure alot of the superstars are relatively tough to get. But there are lots of guys in the set who Im sure wouldn't be a problem.

    For example, I went to a Mavericks game on Saturday and saw Derek Harper and Gerald Wilkins. That's what gave me the idea actually.

    It's not that Ewing won't sign through the mail. Ewing won't sign period from what I understand. Barkley was never easy, but will sign in certain situations. Ewing won't.

    I think Jordan signs for Upper Deck, maybe you can send your item in through the mail next signing.
