For Pittsburgh Pirates memorabilia, OnlineSports is the best online store we've found. They have a good selection of different types of baseball memorabilia -- autographs, baseballs, bats, plaques etc. -- and their prices are competitive. Click Browse Teams in the left column, then click on Pittsburgh Pirates.

Traditional stores aren't necessarily the way to go. You should also check out eBay. You might have luck and find some good deals.

Here are some live eBay auction prices for Pittsburgh Pirates memorabilia:

If you're a collector, you definitely need a guide book. You don't want to risk paying way too much for something. Dan Zachofsky's Handbook for Collecting Baseball Memorabilia is a good source for information on baseball autographs and collectibles, especially if you're new to the hobby. (If you collect baseball cards, you want the annual Beckett Baseball Card Price Guide. For the latest updates, you should subscribe to Beckett Baseball Card Monthly magazine.)

By the way, eBay is also your best bet if you're selling Pittsburgh Pirates memorabilia. Auctions have always been the best way to get the real value of your items, and now thanks to eBay's active memorabilia auctions, it's easy for anyone to auction off their collection. (A mainstream brick-and-mortar auction house will generally only deal with you if you have a large collection to sell. And they'll take a percentage of the total sales, say 10 to 25 percent, for their service.) Click here for eBay, or eBay UK or eBay Canada if that's where you're located.
