Stargate Props Going Up For Auction
will_die writes "After all the recent auctions for Propworx's Battlestar Galactica props, they are now selling off 15 years of Stargate SG-1 and Atlantis props. Over the next couple of months minor items will be sold on eBay, and the major items will be sold in two live auctions. eBay auctions will consist of smaller props, most costumes, drawings and even parts of Stargates. The live auctions will contain items such as the Thor puppet, The Ark of Truth, and the only fully working Stargate. (Multiple Stargates needed for travel)." My wife will be bidding on Daniel Jackson. I wouldn't mind a Zat gun, but at $3K–$4K, it's a bit rich for my blood... although if the neighbor's dog keeps getting out of his electric fence I might have no choice...
You go and buy it and then put in on a shelf? Have people over and say look at that! It from the [insert show here] TV show!
After you dump the hundreds or thousands of dollars on that crap and you get tired of it, you'll stick it in a closet or on a shelf.
Take the money and invest it or save it. One day you will need it and the market for this shit isn't liquid - meaning, you won't be able to sell the thing to another sucker when you really have to.
People are so stupid with their money. No wonder we have these economic problems.
You mean with someone in jail for animal cruelty?
