You’re better meeting the artist in person and they sign in front of you. except it's $20 for a CD with a signed card, vs. $2k for a meet and greet reality’s tight if the music is right Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like the wait to get it, and then its whatever was scribbled or however much effort was given is what you get that batch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cookie Tookie 10,546 Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 I will no longer be ordering anything signed. And I doubt many others will as well after this mess. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first one already came and the signature was just the L but I still thought it was cool.That being said, I'm gonna be annoyed if I waited for over a month and one just like it or worse shows up. I would love the merch store to do a better job at updating/explaining Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well when you come to NYC you have a higher chance meeting Gaga on the street and getting a signed CD. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I get it, signing thousands of cards can be grueling but Jessica Simpson managed to do it for her book. Take breaks then and resume than to burn yourself out and also people don’t like hearing this but lots of celebrities do have their people sign for them and even goes back to the old days because let’s face it, for a busy celebrity sometimes they really don’t have the time or energy and while it’s a slight let down, I can understand but seeing L’s or a line being acceptable as a signature looks even worst, I’m sure if the tables turn around she would be disappointed to just get a line for an autograph from one of her idols. I honestly feel she needs to take a break after this era, maybe release an EP but just rest up and come back rejuvenated and inspired again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katsuki Bakugo 9,788 Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 If artists plan to do signed merch- either do it in full or not at all. This signed CD was a sales ploy 100%.

just another gay 836 Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 Look at it from a different angle, the signature is so lame makes it a higher chance that it is actually signed by her LOL If it is perfect over all the signed merchandises it's probably signed by an intern.

Benji 20,113 Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 I think they need to limit them a bit, it’s unfair on fans to get varying quality but I am grateful she’s done them and I love mine. I think a good way of doing it might have been the way I got my ASIB signed CD; they sent out the actual CD unsigned on purchase and you just waited to receive the signature art card until it was done. It gives Gaga more time to sign and take breaks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brecht 7 Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 Those Ls were obviously not signed by her since there are a lot of variations between them. Looks like different people signed them. So yeah, I’m glad I didn’t buy them. That was probably the end of the overhyped merch store tho, since bundles don’t count for BB anymore. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
