Lizzy Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 Who is Dave Scott and why is he £95?! Thats more than Bakula charged at his only ever show! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psychosis Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 Google anyone you don't know He's an extremely respected astronaut. To quote the last line of the first bio for him I found: He has logged 546 hours and 54 minutes in space, of which 20 hours and 46 minutes were in Extravehicular Activity. He is only one of three Astronauts who have flown both earth orbital and lunar Apollo Missions. If you're talking about Scott Bakula, I'd say being a real life astronaut is a hell of a lot more important than standing in front of a camera pretending to be someone else?

But £95 isn't that a bit steep... Alexey Leonov was the first man to walk in space. Sergei Krikalev spent 803 days in space. They both beat him to it!

Sergei Krikalev spent 803 days in space. They both beat him to it! To quote one of the organisers: Dave Scott does less than Buzz and he has always been one of the higher priced signatures. It is however an across the board price so you wont, have to pay extra if you have large items or 3d items. He has also agreed to sign covers which is something i could not get some of the others to do. And lastly it has taken us 8 years to get him so that should be a fair sign of his elusiveness.

autograph_fanatic Posted March 10, 2008 Share Posted March 10, 2008 I suppose the usual £15 - £25 isn't too bad, but I was really surprised at how much some of the Space autographs are. Ouch! How can anyone justify spending £95 for a space autograph? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
machbusterman Posted March 10, 2008 Share Posted March 10, 2008 I suppose the usual £15 - £25 isn't too bad, but I was really surprised at how much some of the Space autographs are. Ouch! How can anyone justify spending £95 for a space autograph? Because that's what the market will pay... in the US Colonel Scott's fee is $175 for signature only. John Young's base fee is $495 or around £250. If you're not interested then don't pay it. I was at Spacefest last year and his line was long and there was no shortage of people prepared to pay for his signature... I know one guy that had 13 items signed (not ME!!).

Aldrin Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 Yep it is steep, but I don't blame the astronauts really. They've obviously taken advice from the pencil squeezers and marketing gurus about how much they are worth and how much they can make, and it all seems more of a business nowadays don't it. Makes me hark back to the good ole' days of autograph books, stage doors and 'can you sign this please mate!' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
