Is anyone concerned about their Clinton or Trump "investments"?

I really don't want this to turn into a political debate. That is not my intention.

I'm just wondering whether anyone who has recently purchased a Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton autograph is concerned what affect a win or loss in next week's presidential election will have upon their recent purchase.

Okay...now obviously the autograph of whoever wins the election will immediately increase in value. It will then become a President's autograph.

I think in the last month or so, with Clinton seemingly having the wind at her back, the price of her autograph has been going up on eBay with the anticipation of her becoming the first female President.

But not so fast. The decision of FBI Director Comey to go public with the reopening of "email-gate" has now made Clinton's path to the White House far from clear.

Has anyone who purchased a Hillary autograph within the last month or so begun to think they may have overpaid?

And what about Trump buyers?

It's kind of an interesting topic...at least to me. But let's try keep it polite.

I think both are severely overpriced, but yes, whoever the losing candidate is - many, many people will have overpaid for their autograph in recent months.

Yes, and I've noticed that items signed by both Bill and Hillary are being offered at very premium prices with the selling point being that your item won't just be a President and a First Lady, but rather two Presidents. Some are very high-priced, but I would be careful because, if she does not win, the buyer may have overpaid BIG TIME.

What is the overpriced, price and how much should they be selling for?

I think they are both selling in the $200-$350 range depending on the item. A Trump signed guitar sold for over $600 I believe. Hillary signed books PSA go for around $300-$400 actually I think. But Bill and Hillary together is an expensive item, usually over $1000. Some sellers are asking crazy prices like $3000. But if you do pay say $1500 for a dual Clinton item, and she doesn't win, you won't get your money out of it.
