Star Wars fans not impressed at price for a Mark Hamill autograph
- Mark Hamill, known for his role as Luke Skywalker, is reportedly charging fans a minimum of $400 for an autograph.
- Prices for his autographs at a FanExpo event were listed as $400 for an 8x10 photo, $500 for a premium autograph, and $700 for a ‘bulky’ autograph.
- The high cost of the autographs has generated significant discussion and criticism among fans on Reddit, with many expressing unwillingness to pay.
- Some online commenters defended the pricing, suggesting it could be a strategy to deter resellers or manage interactions with overly enthusiastic fans.
- Hamill recently shared an anecdote about his late co-star Carrie Fisher, who once urged him to embrace his Star Wars fame after he omitted it from his Broadway biography.
