Not many people realize it, but ranch is actually a bit of a miracle cream for Clacks.  Takes away years of aging to make them look fresh and young again!

Hey guys, any bets as to how much a Night Owl for MX would be? Mint condition-

also, where would one sell it if the interest is there?

Thanks a ton!

It's worth what it sold at retail.

Since you don't meet post requirements, it would have to be sold on eBay or Reddit.

[naasfu]

this thread is just a loophole for selling auctioning clacks.

[nubbinator]

Yes it is, which also means its a great place to scam people.

+1 for selling it for what you paid for it.

Needs a bottom shot.

[GjessingMikk]

Pretty new, what is a ''bottom shot'' ?

[slip84]

Pretty new, what is a ''bottom shot'' ?

Stem. There are fakes aboot.

You take a picture of the bottom of the clack, the side facing your keyboard. It has a stamp there to proof it has authenticity

I'm not pushing you out, just alerting you to the rules here for selling and stating that people have been scammed in this thread before.  If you want to take me stating facts as discouraging you from being a member, feel free to, but you would be incorrect.  I welcome new people to post and become members of the community, but I don't like people who use the site solely as a place to sell stuff.

I'll be happy to ignore those post requirements if you want to sell it to me    )

[naasfu]

I heard that people are copying the bottoms as well now.

[rockhawksam]

As much as I agree with the idea of selling and buying clacks at retail, I can understand the desire to know the market value of a clack. Considering that this thread is the clack valuation thread, don't you think that this person deserves to know what his clack is valued at? I also feel like people in this thread jump to assuming that a clack is fake. Has k3kc even stolen the design of the night owl (yet)? To answer your question GjessingMikk, when I had that same clack I was offered $250 for it.

Sure, which is why I give the value.  The value is the retail price to me.  I think poorly of people who flip them for profit and pay retail for all of mine and sell mine at retail.

If you want to support price inflation and further drive the price up due to speculation, feel free to do so, but I will continue to take my stand and state that the price is retail.  If there's any price inflation, it should only be a couple of dollars for added shipping cost.

I also feel like people in this thread jump to assuming that a clack is fake. Has k3kc even stolen the design of the night owl (yet)?

People have the right to question the authenticity of goods, especially when they're being asked to pay an inflated price several times above the retail price.  Given that there have been multiple fakes both with and without Clack's maker's mark, I think it's a fair question to ask.  You never know what has been or will be faked, so you should stay on your toes.  If you were to buy a designer bag, you'd want to make sure it had the certificate of authenticity, wouldn't you?

We are acting as a conglomerate pricing committee, all offering our opinions on fair prices.  The seller can take this information as they wish.  They can ignore the pleas for retail pricing, or they can choose to embrace that ideology.  No one is forcing anyone to sell at retail.  Some might consider the retail suggestion to be a non-answer and a waste of time, but it's a fair answer - and it's no less "correct" than someone with deep pockets spending $500 on a cap that's "valued" at $250.  Every sale/price is ultimately determined by the seller and buyer anyway.  And I think we all need a friendly reminder about the inflation of Clack prices to keep us all in check.

I'd be careful, remember the guy who sold that one clack he asked how much it was worth to like 5 or 6 different people.

[naasfu]

Don't forget the random guy who dropped in on this thread with a "what's my depth black worth?" and proceeded to "sell" it to 10+ people here and on reddit.

Not discouraging at all no, I am intrigued by the serious ambient here-
not something I am used to, so please bear with me while I adjust.

That being said, I had no idea that I would be received by this type of rejecting cynicism in a thread created to discuss what I wanted to discuss; if I misunderstood, read the above-

I was over the hills happy to get my first clack some months ago and I simply wanted to understand what exactly this item could potentially go for.

(Also haha, the bottom shot was a brainfart for me, I see a lot of ''doubleshot''|''Tripleshot'' around these parts)

Where would be the appropriate area to post a bottomshot, and is there anything else I should include for proper documentation

Thanks!

Bottomshot should be placed beside the original pic in a classifieds ad if you were to sell your cap. Although you need to read the requirements of how and when you can post in the classifieds

[slip84]

Haha. He tried to sell it to me on reddit.

Beerbelly, that is.

It's just that when all your posts are about selling a clack we get suspicious and reselling for profit is against the values of a decent amount of GHers.

I think the worry people have is that someone has swooped in before with little to no posts, asking how much a hard-to-find clack was worth and then went ahead to scam the living crap out of people. It's not you, it's the nature of the beast. You've not done anything wrong, but your submission has altered the topic of discussion here a bit. You indeed posted in the right place, but the nature of things are as I described.

Anyway. Best of luck if you do sell it. And as Signature said, the appropriate ad would have detailed shots with timestamps of the item, both top and bottom, etc.

Confirmed.  I'd say $80-120 would be a "reasonable" range to expect.  If you hold out a bit you might get lucky on the lower end of the range.  If I were you, I would avoid paying more than $100, though it ultimately depends how desperate you get.  )

What about the trophy silver? Would I be able to get a mint gum for one in a trade?

[Synjin]

I'd say yes but it really is up to the person with a mintgum if they are willing to do a swap. Value wise the trophy should allow you to.

I value Trophy Silver higher than Mint Gum, so you should definitely be able to trade it, either even or $ to you. Depends how the two parties value them, ultimately.

I believe bueller had a bear of a time trading his topre silver clack for an MX clack, so if that's your goal you may have some troubles.    hopefully you have slightly better luck.
