So... without going into too much detail I have the opportunity to obtain a pair of WAND's early Pride FC fight-worn gloves... (non-title WIN and GREAT fight!!! A Battle!!!) what are they worth (do you think)? I'm not asking what you COULD pay for them, I'm asking if cash wasn't an object what would you think they were worth?
For reference... WAND's gloves from the Liddell fight (79) (non-title decision loss, EPIC battle!) went for $21,000...
$21,000 for a pair of fight worn gloves is horrible.
Even if I were rich, anything over 3-5k would be unjustified.
I strongly disagree with that. misprinted mass-produced topps "error" cards are selling for 3K these days...
This whole Topps things is a mess as well. I don't think that should be used to judge the value of something else.
PTSandman - Even if I were rich, anything over 3-5k would be unjustified.OK... how's this then... coming from the most frugal dude on here....3-5K to you would be like 30-50K to everybody else... lol!
For fight worn gloves in a loss?
$10,000 for PRIDE title win gloves, sure.
$21,000 for UFC non-title, loss gloves? Just don't get it.

No! Are they really????That card sold???? They were listed @ 3,000 just to put a hook out in the water- but there is no way that card will sell for 3,000. You're talking about the GSP right?
I would say 2,500 tops. Those Liddell Wand gloves were a charity auction if I remember correctly. That's probably why they went so high.
I think a pair of Fedor's gloves (not fight worn) should be equal in price to a pair of fight worn Silva gloves.
3000 for a card? WTF!
gloves i would say 5-6k value. now that doesnt mean you cant list them on ebay for 10,000 buy it now or sell for a ton of money to the right person/company.
To give a little perspective, Shogun and I negotiated for his Pride USA fight worn shorts. I offered 600, he wanted a G. His gloves were in the same range. Also, KErr told me that he had to give back his gloves in the early days before he was given his check, but later that changed...Fathead and I tried to smuggle 2 extra pair out of WEC before his Steibling fight. To no avail. Those bastards are diligent. Wand gloves.....I'd say 3k on auction. Maybe up to 15k to the right Japanese guy.
you guys would cry if i told you what i'm trading for them... ** locks mouth shut and throws away the key **
btw... the wand 21K gloves were not auctioned... 21K private sale.
Wow nice find on the gloves.Im with Fightpimp on this one,well I dont see them being worth 21grand but I think they are worth more than 3-5 imo.Now if they were Ricksons I would say they are only worth a grand and that you should sell to me.
