Title: Matchbook anyone?
Post by: Dicer on April 15, 2014, 11:12:36 AM

Just seeing if there is interest in this rarity, I have no idea what I would consider taking for it....but if you have an interest pitch away

Heh, those things are cool as hell.  I've don't know what it'd be worth, though, other than "not much" to gamers here or "hundreds" to hipster collectors.

Hoping to find the latter... it is a neat little item, glad not lost to many a shuffle

Very cool and I think wmac-douche had one awhile back he was selling, he was looking for big bucks like always ( what a douche) and I think he might have got $50 for the thing.

very cool promo piece :) but I don't think it has a great value.

I was close $60, but way to much for a Sherlock Holmes item ((shrugs))

Lol, well I have a pair...I'll gladly trade one for an equally odd obey item...if anyone wants

Gotta dig around I might have another trinket or two sitting around.

Before you trade it/sell it, take some nice pics of it. I love wacky stuff like that.  (http://junk.tg-16.com/images/pcgs.png)

Experiment with different lighting/angles to emphasize that it is a real 3-dimensional object, not a flat scan.
