This should be fun to watch. Wonder if it was an old gas member?

Someone would have an instant collection. I hope who ever buys it does not try and resale all of them at the same time and flood the market with common globes.

134 x 400 average = $53,600 And I'm just guessing! Wow!

I'd ask for the display cases as well! Noah are you raising funds for this purchase?

I would never be able to buy 3 of the globes, lol! And I hope someone doesn't flood the market also... That wouldn't be good...

The globes belong to a friend of mine. He is not an OLDGAS member, he doesn't have a computer. He has been in the hobby for many years. You couldn't ask for a nicer guy to deal with. Brady

Looking at all the pictures the globes look very clean so that will help the price

Looking at that collection and discussing the value makes you realize just how quickly you can build up a pretty hefty nest egg in this hobby, a few dollars at a time. In looking through the pictures that they did post, there wasn't a lot of globes that are particularly rare or high priced yet multiplied times 134 it really adds up.

is it possible that the person selling these set a high reserve & is just trying to get an idea of value on his entire collection? Perhaps maybe even for insurance reasons?

I can tell you for sure that he has not set a high reserve for any other reason than to sell his globes for what he thinks is a reasonable price. I'm not a globe guy, I've always thought he was a bit high on the pumps that he has sold in the past, so perhaps he feels his globes may have a higher value as well, I really couldn't say. Brady

Is this post really necessary? A close friend of mine works with handicapped and mentally challenged kids. Seeing a post such as this is pretty sad and tasteless.
