Check link for info http://search.ebay.com.au/search/search.dll?from=R40&satitle=fc+boot+emblem Cheers Craig 8) Title: Re: Boot Emblem Post by: Blown_FC on April 28, 2006, 09:48:51 PM Holy Cr*p.....I'd expect to pay that for a mint NOS one, but a repro ???
I thought Rare Spares were producing these? May have to buy one of Graham's overlay badges afterall. Mark Title: Re: Boot Emblem Post by: RET on April 29, 2006, 12:46:26 AM I think the RS repro is around the $90 mark, less with Club discount. If this one isn't a RS item I'd be very surprised.
This is probably one of those chancers hoping to find a buyer ignorant of the fact that RS are remaking them and turn a quick buck. cheers RET Title: Re: Boot Emblem Post by: Blown_FC on April 29, 2006, 12:55:10 AM RET, do you know if RS are actually selling these things yet...last I head they were going to be less than $75 and due in about FEB ???
Cheers Title: Re: Boot Emblem Post by: RET on April 29, 2006, 01:08:06 AM They weren't in the latest (March) RSA "Traditional Product Alert" booklet that the NSW Club received, so I'm not sure of the status. Maybe a PM to les ($2)?
cheers RET Title: Re: Boot Emblem Post by: RET on April 29, 2006, 01:11:20 AM Oh, and for what it's worth the original batch of these (the ones that had the problems with vacuum-metallizing and were recalled) were about $84 from memory. With club discount they would have been around $75.
cheers RET Title: Re: Boot Emblem Post by: Blown_FC on April 29, 2006, 02:10:01 AM Thanks RET
Title: Re: Boot Emblem Post by: mcl1959 on May 03, 2006, 06:35:34 AM I am reliably informed that they will be ready in mid May.
Price will be less than $75 to club members Ken Title: Re: Boot Emblem Post by: Blown_FC on May 03, 2006, 06:55:13 AM That's more like it.........glad I'm not the current winning bidder on Ebay at over $142 :-/
That's not to say that the current winning bidder won't be happy with their purchase. Horses for Courses. Thanks Ken for the update :D |
