I have an extra Mamadou bobble - if anyone has a Cannon, Meola, or Friedel who would like to work out a trade let me know

I'll trade you a Cannon for a Diallo. We're trying to put together a couple complete sets to auction at the Club Quake year-end party.

I'm also looking for Tony Meola, Bobby Convey, Brad Friedel, and Stern John. I can also trade Landon Donovan Earthquakes bobbles. Email or PM me.

And how did you get a Meola? I'm a diehard Wizards fan, and I haven't been able to get one.

hmmm.

The old standby known as ebay. :D

There should be some floating around, on average $30. The high end bid usually goes for $40, and if you are quick enough to get it with Buy It Now $20.

If anyone missed out on the first Lorrie Fair giveaway, they are giving them out to the first 2,000 kids tonight.

Looks like the Siri Mullinix bobblehead fetched another high fortune due to its current lack of demand.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2130202061&rd=1

Again, we have one person, who can now be considered a rival in the bidding wars, who bought, really sniped, the bid at $91. Based on precedent, this one is willing to spend the entire bank just to be the first one on the block--bad move.

This is the second highest bid since the $100 Brad Friedel was bought last month.

Originally it was a "Buy It Now" at $30 and it sold for 3 times the original amount. Had it been for that, it would have been a better sell.

Though, as John_Harkes_6 stated, when someone gets a Tony Meola bobble for $70 only to see the market flooded with them later on and being bought between $20 and $40, it's a ton of money wasted. It's just as much of a laffer as the guy who bought the home run ball only to see its value depreciate, again using this for the sake of argument.

Hopefully, the Freedom will make the smart move and sell their bobbleheads online, same as how the Power has offered their Tiffeny Milbrett bobbleheads for sale on their site.

Cheers!

My collection is now complete. I have every male bobblehead - with the exception of Crew cat but that does not even count.

[Hawkeye17]

You can now get Bobby Convey at the DC United website. Thanks to Turcs for the heads up on that.

One was sold on ebay for $60 and had the team website not offer them for sale, I would have tried to make a bid for it. I know Turcs was trying to score one for the end of year CQ party.

Instead of spending a fortune on it, I can now get a Bobbito bobble and the new United scarf for $50 including shipping. :D

Still looking for a Siri bobblehead for trade. Right now I don't care for the Littles.

Any idea on the current value of the TB Mutiny Diallo bobblehead ?

Just picked one up for about $16 off ebay. I don't think anyone knew it was there. Thanks to Nap for the head's up...

Every time you think you have them all - a new one comes out. At least this one should be easy to get.

DC announced that they will give away Eddie Pope bobbleheads at the Dallas game on the 19th.

PM if you are interested in my trying to pick one up for you. No promises.

[Hawkeye17]

Something of note for collectors:

For you pinball (indoor) soccer fans, there are the Hector Marinaro and Tatu bobbleheads.

The latter is a bit tough to find. However, the former is easy to get, and for $5 at http://www.crunchsoccer.com and in Earthquakes fashion the team has reverted back to the Cleveland Force.

Now, if they can bring back the San Francisco Fog!

Cheers!

Looking for a Siri Mullinix bobblehead for exchange/sale. Alas, only one has been sold on ebay and none since. Not even the Freedom Store has offered them, so asking right now if someone has one--even tried a few places here and there.

And, there is a Diallo bobblehead on ebay with a Buy It Now for $19.95 for those who want to add him to their collection.

I don't care for Jacqui or Skylar Little at this point. The keepers are what matters. Thanks!

[honkifulovemls]

i have an extra Hecotr Marinaro bobble if [never been opened from its box] for sale or trade if anyone is interested. just lmk.

[John_Harkes_6]

I didn't get an extra Eddie - however, one has already hit E-Bay

[Hawkeye17]

I'll tell you right now the core bidders are going to (1) wait until the last second to bid or (2) grab it with "Buy It Now"... No bid is safe except with the latter.

Especially after the exhorborant prices for the Friedel, John, and Mullinix bobbles the bidding becomes a chess game.

Cheers...

[JRedknapp11]

Anyone get their hands on the Tatu bobblehead ? I'd Love to add him to my collection.

[Hawkeye17]

Tatu is a very rare bobble. You would have to look thick and thin for that one.

So far, only a few Eddies have shown up on ebay. I snoozed again on the "Buy It Now" one, just like the Siri one (which was offered at $30 and then shot to almost $100!!!!!!!).

Also, a Bobby Convey/Marco Etcheverry combo has showed up on ebay. The DC United online store is sold out of Bobbito, but there seems to be a pile of El Diablo bobbles there. No word on when they will restock Kid Convey though.

And get him fast--he could be heading out of Washington. :(

Cheers!

A) I think once they sell out they are done.

B) What are you talking about? Heading out of Washington?
