What would be a realistic value of a Texaco Banjo Pole (pole only)? The condition is rusty, needs blasting,primed,and painted, no lights with it.
Thanks, Mike

Hey Larry, I'm surprised at the high quotes myself. I was always told that these poles could be had from $75-$150 and like you said, not much demand for them. I'm trying to snag this one for myself as a keeper. I live out in the sticks and have the land to put these old relics back up like they belong. I'll keep you posted. If I can get it for less than 200 it'll come home. Ain't no way I'm gonna pay 300+ for a Texaco Pole. I'll leave it laying where it's at, rusting peacefully in the woods.

I agree. It was down already. I got cut off at the knees on this deal today. The owner was going to accept my offer of $100 but he talked to his son and all of a sudden he decided he wanted it. His son was the one who told me in the first place that it was there and he didn't want it for himself. Go figure?? Oh well, there's more out there.

Well, you can't really use ebay as a gauge. There's just way too many poles being bought and sold that never see ebay. There not really all that rare around here and most can be bought for around 200 or under. Like I said there's a guy here in town who has a decent 6' sign and the original pole for 500.
