> This message is to snafu and bcmaddog and anyone who read my previous post on this topic. I don’t rely plan on selling or trading any of my og clues for another year or two. Just rely want to know what prices should I be looking for when buying a MIB of clyw. I see some people selling them at today’s price even when they are about 2 or 3 years old. I personally bought a mint team edition gnarwhal for $75, so when I see some1 selling BvM, sasquatch, and as on for at the lowest 90 - 110 I just start scratching my head. Should it be that high or was I just supper lucky.

You’ll notice those sit for some time. If somebody specifically wants that colorway they will buy it or else it’ll just sit. $75 is a much more common price for those throws

I think you could get more for the Orion if folks knew how well it played.

True, but a lot of people don’t.

Part of the reason I gave a low appraisal is the finish. That clear ano over what looks like soda just isn’t appealing. The engravings are hardly noticeable and just muddy up the overall appearance. Plus I’ve had a STYY throw in that finish. For whatever reason, it collects dirt very easily and tends to pick up a less-than-clean hue.

Summits seem to be like the stock market… One day everybody wants in and then to the rooftops… I think once you have a mass produced, high level (hyped) throw it is too easy to obtain new. Don’t take this the wrong way I love mine and the one I passed down to my son. Look at the code 2 many produced still very competitive, yet resale of almost half after opening the box. Much like a new car.

Summits people price at $100+ seem to sit on the BST for ages, even in the $80-90 range mint ones in popular colorways frequently sit for quite some time. I assume it’s because a ton of have been produced along with a lot of people looking at it as more of a OD than a CLYW so they’re only willing to pay the “OD price” (ie not wildly overpay).

I would imagine with 225 of them out there they should be going for about $125-150 Mint but apparently it’s more like $200 mint.

The first one I got had no damage and was a little oxidized. That one I payed $80 for. The 2nd one I got was Coffelt’s with a bit of damage for $56. That MIB one going for $200 is WAY too much. If I REALLY wanted it, $120 max.

The only SPYY I ever got that required more than $200 worth of stuff was a gold PURE with the certificate, box, bag, and original strings.

But with such a niche market, it’s really what someone will pay. I remember having trouble getting rid of my mint Pure Gold with box and errytang for $120.
