1930 Spalding trophy fielder
I have a 1930 Spalding trophy fielder -- shipped to Spalding in CA for repair on ankles. Should I have them polish it up as well if they can repair ankles or should I leave original patina. All thoughts on this greatly appreciated. Thanks

the $3,550.00 that was bid on your trophy was a good one for a trophy with issues. The cracked legs do lessen the value. I am guessing someone told you it should sell for $7500.00 and that is what you are looking for??

Unsure of price
Not really sure of what is the right price...by time I paid eBay the $3500 would not have been so great.....

$3500 isn't bad. if you think you can get more, and are patient, put in back on ebay with a $5500 BIN and "Make and Offer". You may get a higher offer than $3500.

Personally, I would not want to pay $3500 for it and then hope to find someone who can fix it. You would be better off in my opinion to fix it yourself (have someone fix it for you), and then sell it at the price you wanted. Nobody wants to find out out after they bought it that it cannot be fixed. Just my two cents.

It should have sold on ebay in a heart beat at a decent price. Recent ones sold on ebay have fetched a strong price. Given the condition I think $3500 wasn't too bad, if you could have gotten that price.
What was the minimum reserve you were looking at? Given you are new on ebay, and the two bidders are new and may have appeared as fake to some, could have scared some bidders away. You may be best consigning to an auction house. http://www.ebay.com/itm/1930-Spaldin...p2047675.l2557 |
