Silly Rabbit!
I bought this from my local Facebook group this other week. I paid $3 for it. It's really big, just over 5" across the top of the mug. There is one like it currently listed on eBay for $39.99 + shipping. I checked completed listings and didn't see any. So I checked Terapeak . I looked back an entire year and there haven't been any listed there either! I checked Google and Amazon also. Except the one that is listed on eBay and the one I own, I cannot find this mug ANYWHERE.
Is that a good thing? Or a bad thing? Is it super-rare? Or a total dud? It's a nice heavy mug, feels like it's really high quality. This is an age-old quandary. I think I'll put my money on the super-rare. I'm going to price it high with a best offer. The other listing doesn't have the best offer option. If I price mine higher than that one and add best offer, maybe I'll be able to get some idea of what a buyer might be willing to pay. I'll keep you posted.
Have you ever found an item that you just could NOT find anything about? Did it turn out to be a home run or a dud?
I have one. It's a Let's Pretend Fort Sam wooden building block set. It's old. Not at all PC. Has a cowboys and indians theme. I picked it up at the end of last summer for $2. I bought some Sunshine Family Dolls from the '70s (I think that's what they were called) at the same sale, so maybe this toy is from the same time period? I have found nothing on it. I've even had an eBay alert set up for "fort sam wooden" for months now, and nothing like it has been listed. Worth nothing, worth a lot? Who knows?

ReplyDeleteI currently have a pink Imperial Herringbone and Beaded Opal design 5 in. basket that I can't find anywhere - I can't even find much in this pattern to even be able to jump from. Hm.
ReplyDeleteYour cup is a dud It's crap You should sell it to me for real cheap (just kidding) I do like it though. I have no idea about what it is worth. I wish my facebook would have decent stuff. I bought some LPS today and the buildings are missing pieces even though she told me they were complete. Liar I say Big fat Liar!!!
