Musicians Who Sell Their Signatures In Shop.

We now have a Musician-Direct Autograph Sales Forum where you can post individual discussions of new offerings. It's a big change—and a big improvement. We closed this discussion after 8 years but it will always be available to read.

The new system has been in place for 2 months now and it's working well.

This video shows you how easy the new forum is to use.

You can follow the forum and be notified of new signings exclusively! And you can enter a musician's name in the forum's search box and find any discussions about them.

Be sure to click the Follow link at the bottom of the list of discussions.

Try it...I think you'll like it.

Though I recall a member posting a blog asking about this a while ago, I could not relocate it for my purpose in this discussion.

It can be nice when one stumbles upon a musician's shop (via their website), to see that they are selling their autographs. I figured this could grow as a wee database for listing those musicians who partake in this.

I recently recieved a couple press photos signed in ballpoint from John Mayall's website (http://www.johnmayall.com/merch.html). I am also aware that you can purchase signed CDs from Peter Noone of Herman's Hermits(http://peternoone.com/store/). John 5 ( formerly Marilyn Manson, Rob Zombie guitarist) sells various items signed, with an option to dedicate.

So, does anyone else know of this being done by other musicians?

Keep a eye out guys. Make sure they don't just put inscriptions on autopen cds.

I joined the Barry Bonds fan club just to get one of my cards autographed. It was autopenned and also personalized. I'm guessing dolly scenario will be the same.

I have filed a claim with PayPal to try to get my money back. This is completely unethical and fraudulent and I think everyone deserves their money back. If Dolly wants to have her projects backed and wants to charge larger amounts to do so she had better agree to hand sign items that are described thusly. I will probably have to leave it to Paypal to decide my fate because it seems Pledge isn’t going to agree they are autopens.

Thanks Ian :) If they are responding in a public forum I would ask them for any other explanation of how those signatures could match like that while also mentioning the 2014 or so CD promo Black Smoke - same problem with same rants and all online. Almost the same template too! Brazen :( Disgusting.

These Dolly Parton cds were not signed by her. They were signed using an autopen. People paid over $80.00 for a signed cd and it ends up being signed by a machine. It is very unfair and is a ripoff. Her people need to be told

I also contacted PledgeMusic about Dolly's autopenned CDs and just received a very similar response from Michelle.

Thankfully Pledge Music is taking care of this for us. My first purchase from them but definitely not my last.
