Is it fair to spend so much on one and not the same on the others? I think not. I also have to buy Christmas presents for many other family members. Christmas is an expensive time of year.
The second reason is... would giving a run of the mill autographed McDavid photo mean that much to a 10 year old boy as opposed to getting the same thing but without the autograph? I doubt it. Autographs mean much more to adults than they mean to 10 year old boys. However... getting a personalized autographed photo where McDavid has actually written out my grandson's name and offered best wishes.... Wow.. can you just imagine the smile on my Grandson's face when he sees that?

I see your point, thank you.
