First of all, I apologize if this is in the wrong place, or innapropriate. I am a fan of the show and enter a lot of sweepstakes. I recently won a script, the winnging letter came from Geoege R R Martin's office and was shipped from HBO. It is a bound book containing the script from season one, episode eight. It is signed by George R R Martin. I am thinking of putting it on Ebay, but am not sure how much it would be worth. Can anyone here help me out as to how much the starting price should be, or if it even has any value? Thank you.

My advice is to keep it. It's a lovely thing to have.

But if you really really wanna sell it then pop it up eBay. I know i'd make you a offer! You'd be safe enough starting at .99c!

DO NOT start it off at 99 cents.

GRRM signed collectibles are doing very well on the secondary market right now.

Trust me, I should know I sold my collection only a month ago.

A signed script should fetch about 500 dollars easily.

Put it up on Ebay for 1000 dollars buyitnow or best offer.  Take any offer above 500.  Or negotiate for an off-Ebay transaction to save you some fees.  Buyer can still Paypal you direct and be protected by Paypal.

Or keep it.  It will rise in value but you're not going to retire on it anytime soon.  Big ticket prices are reserved for signed first editions, ARCs, or special edition limited books.

Good luck either way.

Thank you Landed Knight for the honest reply, I appriciate it. I think I'll hold on to it for a while.

No problem, by the way, Landed Knight is a designation that roughly describes how long you've been here and is correlated with post count.  You just started hence your rank is "commoner"
