Hey, pennant guys

Well no I didn’t think that those prices reflected actual “value” or whatever they would get if auctioned now. That being said, it seems that the Best Offer option was instituted in October 2017. So I don’t think that applies here. More likely these were just off-the-rails auctions like that simple Cardinals pennant from a week or so ago. I would expect it to be $250-300 if auctioned today but plus/minus a big margin of error.

Regarding the Crosley Field Pennants, if you average it out, you are spot on...

$475 - $525 for the vibrant N.Y.P Co. version
$75 - $125 for the plainer, more faded version

Back from the framer.

As an Indians fan - I feel so uncomfortable with this hanging over my desk.

Rob - thank you for the working with me on it. I couldn't be more pleased

That Detroit pennant looks great in the frame, with that background. Very nice!

A stunner! Beautiful matting and Framing... You can never go wrong with a solid black frame. Well done!

Looks fantastic with the matting. I’m glad you elected to have the tassels out flat rather than curled under. I think it looks much better even though it increases the price due to more frame needed. I’ve been there.

The best offer option on eBay has been around much longer than that. In 2017, eBay began allowing you to put it on auction style listings, where prior to that it was only an option for fixed price listings.
