Ideas on where to sell this F1 memrobillia...

p0ss3s3d · 26 Oct 2009 at 16:40

Don't really know if this is really the correct section, but I guess it's most relevant to this catorgory.

Got some racing gloves Jenson Button wore and then signed. It's one of the white pair's. In a frame and whatnot. BOth gloves are signed and smelly.

It was given to me as a prize by Bridgestone and I'm wondering a what they might be worth?

And it might be an idea to know where to sell it (Other than eBay)?

That's all the info I really have but if you ask I'll do my best to find out.

NOTE: This is not an ad, just pondering it ATM, but if anyone does have a burning desire for them send me a PM.

Do you have any documentation to confirm their authenticity? Will help a great deal.

p0ss3s3d · 26 Oct 2009 at 16:49

It's being processed by their bods ATM - should be given the COA next week.

Where/when did he wear them, and was it for a race, practise, or testing?

All will affect value

I'll give you £20... cash.

But as above, how/where they were worn + some certificate of authenticity will go a long way to push the value up.

Well I've got Michael Schumacher's lucky pants that he wore for every race he ever won

They'll be worth whatever people are willing to pay for them, eBay is probably going to be the only option, or some other official auction for sports memorabilia.

If you google Alex Reade, they're a big motor racing memorabilia place in London. They'd probably give you a price, and might even have similar things for sale to judge them by.

Was about to suggest the same. The Alex Reade shop at Brands Hatch is full of this kind of stuff. Mate of mine has a chequered flag with various F1 drivers signatures, and they said to bring it in if he ever feels like selling it any they will have a look.

EDIT: Closest thing to signed gloves on their site, but still £500 for Kristensen signed boots, id imagine F1 WDC gloves would go for more.
