I won a yankee one at auction for around $4,000 six months ago and was aided in the fact that the auction company was small and not too well known.
They really do sell in the 4,000 - 5,000 price range or more if it's a player's or Yankee trophy.

When a player in the NFL wins the superbowl, they have the chance to buy a half scale copy of the lombardi.
It cost's them 5000.00 to do it.
IT's still a real version of it, as is the players copy of the baseball trophy, and same for the college football trophy.
You'll never be able to buy the real one as the teams own them and won't sell them.
THe only one that could end up on the market is the balt colts first trophy, as when they left baltimore, they took the trophy with them, and when I was at Jim Irsay's house, he had it in a box in the garage, he didn't even show it off. I thought it was odd, but he said they had to hide it because the colts really own it but his dad took it when they left in the cover of darkness.
