Iceman bobble

[brewcrewbobbler]

Surprise, Surprise...another Kent "Iceman" Meyer bobble pops up on ebay sold by the same guy that sold the last one. Many have eluded to the seller being Kent himself. Seems suspicious. He never sells anything else, but has more than 1 Iceman. Hmmmm.

[midaph]

this is the sellers 3rd one listed.

[madgrad]

Boy, him many did he give his "neighbor"?

[TURBO]

Like the Attanasio, I do not believe there are only 100 of these out there either...

[brewcrewbobbler]

Wow. This just sold for $404.

[TURBO]

Yup, and that prices me out of ever owning one...

[madgrad]

And another. Wasn't there somebody on here saying this was Kent's neighbor? And this is number four? What a classy guy...

[miggs721]

Hey everyone including the iceman need some extra Christmas moolah

[madgrad]

Very true!

[miggs721]

The neighbor and Kent prob split the sale price 300/100 or somethin like that.

I don't believe there is a neighbor.

[KCBrewerfan34]

If you had 20 of these wouldn't you put them on EBAY? Let's not throw stones

[BrewersSuperCollector]

No, I wouldn't. It was to be given away to family, friends, customers, etc. I would never be selling them as I just feel it isn't right. I don't know Kent, have seen him, and bought very little from him. But, I don't think very highly of him from this ordeal.

 

Its just my personal opinion and others are allowed their own.

[miggs721]

Maybe the Iceman is hurtin a little bit during his offseason and needs some drinkin money, selling a few of these is giving him the luxury to enjoy his downtime. Could he have handled this better, heck yeah, but he's the one that has to live with himself for selling these freebies for 400 a pop

[JimH5]

I don't blame anyone for selling them at any price. I just can't imagine buying that one at any price.

 

I'm not a bobble guy. I may be wrong about it, but I just can't see that one holding its value in the long run.

 

I think it's the Canseco rookie card or the Luis Gonzalez wad of gum.

[Outlander]

The more he sells the lower the price will be, if you really want one why wouldn't you want him to make more available?

[Bikeage77]

I'm all set on that one. There was a time when I woulda got the Attanasio bobble if the right price came along (and it did, but a missed phone call cost me).

 

I haven't checked to see what the price of this one is, but I'll guess it's going around 350-400. I agree with JimHS, I just don't think that it'll hold that much value in 10 years. I'll eat my words if I'm wrong, but the Prince Beloit and blue Molitor have dropped in value, and a lot of other bobbles drop by the following season. I know this one is among the most rare, but give it time and we'll see where we're at.

 

Side note: Sometime in the next few weeks I might be looking for help to update the bobblehead price guide. I don't think majority of them will be touched, but a handful of newer ones may need some tinkering. Lemme know if any of you interested in putting your two cents in.

[Hoops03]

610 bucks?!

[TURBO]

Just went for $610!

 

six hundred and ten dollars!

 

Un-freaking believable!

 

This is complete insanity...

[Hoops03]

So much for free shivers from the ice man...

[captainluigi]

Freaking Ridiculous...Nuff Said.

[jjkoestler]

I'd be shocked if the seller actually got the $610.

[Lilrebel724]

The person who bought it has 0 feedback. Seems like someone scaming. Like what happened with the Bernie gnomes

[TURBO]

Seems like a scam to me as well.

 

There were two bidders, which pushed it that high.

 

Probably the seller upping the price, so when he tries to sell again, the price might get higher legit.

 

This is disgusting.

 

Probably a bobble I will never own, oh well, no bobble is worth $600.

[pepsimax23]

I'm guessing that was a "zero bidder" pinning a shill, preventing anyone from grtting it ala Bernie gnomes saga. Seller eats the FVF unless they dispute.
