I said proto ZT SJ and at $700, I would say that was fair. $500-600 for a standard ZT SJ is not bad either. There are relatively few of them. The thing about them is that they are stuck in the hands of collectors who hold on to them tightly as it seems now, so if one pops up it may go higher. If they were passed around regularly, then not so much. This one on ebay, I would give no more than $500-550 for and, as Guyon said, I would have held out that bid until the very end of the auction. That is the beauty of ebay for the seller though, over exuberant bidding wars. :D I say good for the seller, I wish it where my knife up for sale, I'd be grinning ear to ear by now. :D:thumbup:

Hey Yager, what are you holding? :D

Only 2.5 hours to go. About time to drop the hammer on this one...
 
Somebody is nuts! $646 Now. I didn't even bid. I was going to go to $475. but never got a chance.
I'll be happy with the Satin HOGFSH I got last week. :D

Ignorance is bliss...or at least it is until the winning bidder turns around and tries to sell it here for a profit. I have had and sold at least one similar to that one (mine was arguably rarer) and I neither bought nor sold it for anywhere near that price. Each to his own I guess.
 
I just looked up one of my last SJ LE's I sold on here. Of course it was in mid 2005, but it went for a mere $380 and I think I covered the shipping! :eek: I wished I hadn't had to sell a lot of mine over the last two years. I could have doubled my money if I had held them all until now. :D
 
hmmmmmm,
I am beginning to wonder what the price would be if I never posted this thread.

Looks like original SJ's may be the next hot Busse...

I won't go over 800. Might get lucky and get it cheaper. I won't know until the end.

$800! Wow. Go big or go home as they say. :D (nice bluff by the way, smart idea.)

Well, for that much, I personally would rather snag that Custom Shop ASH1 that is for sale there or better yet here on the exchange for $700 and change. Heck you'd have a few bucks left over and have a knife that is definitely not nearly as high in production numbers. To each his own. :D I know the seller and he will be quite happy if it goes there (he ought to be quite pleased if it stops where it is). I hope you haven't made any enemies on BF as of late, if you are serious about your max bid, someone might just slap in a bid for $799. :eek: This is almost as crazy as the SFNO that went for over $800 not long after they stopped production on them. :D What a roller coaster ride collecting can be. :) That's part of the fun of it though.

Yep, that COULD be the new trick... Time share Busses, LOL ...Think I'd rather spend that on a new FBMLE... As it is, my 2 Hell Razors combined are just over that price... So far.

...Maybe it's time to list MY SJ's, LOL
