LOTS of Prince Beloit bobbles


TURBO

Where is this guy getting these bobbles?

 

I saw the same auction end yesterday, now he puts up another lot of 7 today?

 

I just don't trust the rarity of these minor league bobbles anymore. Some guy on this site has an endless supply of Brauns that were supoosed to be limited to 500, now this?

 

Ridiculous.

And he has another lot listed that ends in 6 days. Must have gotten a case of these somehow. Who knows how these guys get these. I know the guy with the Brauns works as a longshoreman out in Cali, where all the bobbles for SGAs are routed through from wherever they're made overseas --- coincidence?

Ok, so let's say the guy has a full case of the Prince bobbles. Does that mean that those bobbles were never given away to the first 1000 fans, and that those who were in the first 1000 fans and didn't get one should be extremely angry?

 

I bet the ball parks rarely give out the numbers they claim, holding back a few cases for other promotions, advertisers, investors, the list goes on.

 

Either there are more than 1000 (insert number here) made, or they give out fewer than that number to the fans. How would we ever know how many were actually given out?

First off, there were only 500 of that Fielder given away. And Secondly, I just don't see what your gripe is. The Snappers said "the first 500 fans entering the stadium will receive a Prince Fielder bobblehead." They do not say anything about the bobblehead being limited to 500. And that's the same for the Helena Braun bobbleheads. They advertise "the first 250 into the stadium," but don't say anything about there only being 250 made. The only way you can gripe is if you can find out the Brewers produced more than 5,000 retros or the T-Rattlers made more than 96 of their rehab series. Both those bobbleheads were advertised as limited to that amount.

Good points, but it is implied that there were only that many made.

 

You are correct though, they don't claim that only that number were made.

I doubt I would have gotten them for much less. 7 of them for $100 shipped is a steal.

 

A thought.... We (Brewerfan nation) could list the bobbles we are bidding on so we don't drive up the price for each other.

No. I didn't end up winning it. Do you want the other one that is listed?
it says glue globs on the shoulder, I wonder how bad they are, or if they can be picked off without ruining the paint?

 

yeah, I'd take it though.

Ekutchery - PM sent

 

The second lot went for a little less than the first.

 

Is anyone here selling their entire collection? http://shop.ebay.com/awan...&_armrs=1&_from=&_ipg=25

 

I'm bidding on: Ports Jenkins, Mr. 3000, Patriotic Snappy, Stars Sheets, Birthday Bernie (standing), Chucks Yount & Gantner, Snappers Money, and a few autos.

. I have about 20 of their items on my watch list. I guess something must have happened in his life such as a job loss. He bought some of the ones he is selling in the last couple weeks.

I am bidding on the Cooper powder Blue, Gantner powder blue, Gorman powder blue SGA full size bobbles.

 

Will probably bid on the Hall with pink bat if "someone" here doesn't come up with one for me. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

 

Also, I put a bid on the the Weeks and Braun pinstripes full size SGA but was already outbid.
