Im just uneasy about this quote on the auction “See photo # 4 the “V” shaped plate is it’s Guide to ensure ,traveling in a streight line !!!”, obviously it is someone shoe doesn’t know its the hook to put it on the belt, and if they don’t know that, can they guarantee its from the movie, plus theres no authenticated paperwork which always scares me with props, especially in that price range.

Well it has two bids at over $1500. So someone THINKS it’s real. He’s in LA (Gardena CA) so it’s possible he got it from working in the industry or knowing someone who worked on the film. It’s crazy what some people have in their homes. A buddy of mine got three full Planet of the Apes gorilla costumes and some V jumpsuits from a old guy that just wanted to clean out his garage. Someone should ask him for more history on how he got it.

If that’s fake, it’s the best fake I’ve seen.

Very true, it looks right. Its just that 1500 is a lot to gamble on, but then again if it is real its totally worth it.

The owner is definitely clueless, his poor language skills don’t really give bidders confidence and it’s most definitely not the rolling trap from the courtroom scene in GB2. That said it’s got all the correct hallmarks for a GB2 stunt trap including the burn spots from the smoke strips and the odd little semi-circle on the upper right side.

I’m gonna have to think some on this one, the price is still at a reasonable point.

Really for its age and the way these things got beat up, its really not in that bad of condition either. Wish I had 2000 to blow, as the bidding will probably get up there, if its real, it would be nice to see it go to a good ghost head’s home

Yeah, it’s going up really fast. Don’t these jerks know how Ebay works? You wait until the last minute and snipe, you don’t run up the price. Haven’t bid yet but If it gets much over $3000 I’ll probably be out.

Place your bets! What will it end at? It’s got six days left.

I’m going to say it tops off at $4551.00

…And it’s over. I’m guessing someone either made him an offer he couldn’t refuse or he just wanted to gauge what he could get for it before taking to a serious auction.

Normally links to live auctions aren’t allowed, but links to auctions that’ve ended, or are items of significant community interest - such as screen-used props, are allowed.
