Finally got the Gauntlet of Sauron!

[sputnik]

I found it in a knife shop for $300.00!

 

[Jen]

Very nice! Congratulations! How tall is it?

 

[karamazov80]

Not a huge LOTR fan, but that is pretty nice. Is it worth much more than what you paid?

 

[sputnik]

It's wearable and stands 16". One just sold on evil-bay for $585.00.

 

[NASEDO]

That is an awesome piece, very detailed.

Looks very nice!!

 

[Geb]

Congrats...you scurvy dog...I'm jealous!

 

[sputnik]

Thanks guys. When you wear it, it feels as though you can take on Freddy Kruger!

 

[LOTRFan]

There's one local to me for $350, I wonder if I should jump on it ... even if it isn't to keep.

This is the piece that got me started collecting. A friend who knew how big a LOTR fan I am pointed me to it and I started dreweling. Still in the top 3 of my collectibles and a must if you're a LOTR fan.

Congrats on getting it, you'll not regret it.

Think of it this way--where it is now, no real fan is having a chance to pick it up. By putting it on eBay, you are actually doing people a favor by making it available to them

I saw that, but there have been so few listed as of late; I just wondered if it was a fluke?

Eh, a fluke auction? Not really IMO. Look at how much Wizard wants for his. $585 is about right, this piece is well worth the money.

 

[Kaijuboy]

Simply Awesome piece, AND it comes in its own equally awesome glass case with the ring script encircling the base. It looks great anywhere you put it!

now you need a full sized sauron's mace.

Possible. If you look at the bidding history on that one, there were only 2 bidders going from $400 to the final bidding price. If only one person in eBay land is looking to pay over $400 for it right now (since the other guy won), it might not be worth your while.

If only someone made one...

You know alot about eBay, is that from all your experiences from selling exclusive Joes from retail chains? I kidd.

But anyways, LOTRFan waited too long. It sold for less than asking price, from what I know.

Not sure what you mean exactly, but I wish I had exclusive Joes to begin with so that I had the option to sell! Storm Shadow will be my first
