Any rough estimate of what my old 90s-era 500HR club bat might be worth?

Any idea of what the approximate value (even an educated guess is fine) of what this bat could be worth, conservatively? I did add Eddie Murray's signature to it because I had the opportunity to do so for free, years ago (he's not on the plaque on the bat). No Foxx, Ott, and Ruth obviously.
Respectfully, I know I could list it and find out, but I don't necessarily want to sell it yet (so comments like "it's worth what the market will pay" aren't really helpful). I'm just asking for a best guess, as I can't really find a good comp for it. Plus, you guys know a lot more than I do! Thank you all! Love this community.

Who authenticated the signatures. Know some of them and they look authentic. That will factor into value.
There's no shortage of Home Run Club bats for sale. They go anywhere from between 1-2K up to 5K with certification of course. Because it has a plaque which matches up to the autos, that's a nice feature, but adding Murray's name may have actually devalued it some. My conservative best guess on your bat would be 1500-2000 retail if all autos are legit.
Farewell Ryno.
Thanks for the heads up! I appreciate it!> @coastaljerseyguy said:
No one. Received it as a gift in the early 90s before that kind of thing was mainstream.
Sold for $2k.
