Anyone get the platinum dipped Turang bobble tonight?

[TURBO]

If you want to get rid of it, I'm a buyer, or have a lot of stuff to trade if that's your thing!

[RWeeksFan23]

i'll second this!

Obviously turbo has first dibs but if there's multiple people willing to sell, i'd be interested also.

Oh ****, you're brilliant! Pay-per-view, 90s style! Gonna have to up our folding chair budget, though.

I should have one available for sale. I just need to check with my buddy. I have him selling them (yes plural - my kids and I each got one which is insane!) on eBay for me. I know one sold for $275 and another for $300 but I think one is still left. Some have found the price to be too high but it seems to be the going rate. Message me if you are interested

Congrats on the good luck. They must have been stacked in bunches because I was walking by the entrance in the left field bleachers and the same thing happend with a group of 4 that were screaming with excitement.

[jjfanec]

Yeah the kids were pretty excited

Thanks, but I found one!

Paid way more than I wanted but not as much as they are going for on ebay.

[TURBO]

I got one, so next man up!

Ended up paying $225 for one, which to me is insane, but the hobby itself is insane at times...

[kestrel79]

You know someone will do it. Try to paint a regular one and sell it for higher.

Wow very cool, I would of wanted that for sure for the collection. Nice work.

[CheezWizHed]

Sure the full platinum ones are "more valuable" because of scarcity, but I think the other one looks better.  I mean he won the platinum glove award and not the silver surfer award... 😏

With the Brewers not giving out anywhere close to a full stadium worth of bobble heads, why wouldn’t they just give out the option of a a free hot dog coupon or a five  dollars off coupon for box office tickets….some have no interest in getting several bobble heads within one family or even a married/dating couple. 

This would allow those coming to the game who want a a bobble to actually get one, especially now that the Brewers are too tight in giving one out to everyone there like they used to do regularly for years. Easy fix.

Inside info from when I used to be a STH: the entrance would get boxes of bobbleheads to give out. Certain entire boxes were the "special" ones and the workers knew which ones. They would randomly grab from those boxes to hand out. to spread out the specials. This was before the mass security so maybe they don't have time to mix it up anymore?

I always entered in the same gate and became friends with the workers. When the supervisor saw me she would call me over and swap with me. That way I got a "specual" and my wife got a "regular".

Speaking of bobbles, always thought it would be cool if they made a bobble shop at the park and have a designated area where you can trade/swap bobbles and sell/buy any previous bobbles. Would be cool on the 400 level.
