What are rare torches going for now?

Luke Schnabel · May 6, 2020

I'm trying to figure out a ballpark for this guy. I've seen up to $1,600.... Single head, about 3" opened up.

I'd give you $50. This torch infatuation is just silly. $250 for a head is ridiculous and you are thinking $1600? Wow......
GLWS I'm sure there is some sucker out there with more money than brains. You may as charge $3000 and give them the option to name it.

If you have lineage and pics of mother colony...yes a master torch or holy grail or 24k etc can get up there if the lineage is really good.

Right now I'm looking for high end ones also and I've seen HG around 9, master torches around 1200-1600 and 24k 1500 range. Indo golds are around 250-500 depending. Those as you know have a lot of varieties.

What would one signed by Bob Dylan go for?

I've only ever seen Master holy grail/ 24k torches that were very vibrantly yellow above the $1000 mark. The bright greenish/yellowish ones like yours go for much less.

Well if bob Dillon's signed it I bet @the_camaro_show would be all over it!

I feel deeply in love with the 24k. 2 heads for $450. I talked the guy into splitting it and I got the big head for $250. In a month it's almost doubled in size. I love it.

I've got photoshop. How yellow do you want it? I cant help it if you dont have the right "lights and nutrients" to produce the same colors as the pic. Lol

The op probably knows the lineage of my 24k. I got it from Matt's corals in Columbus, OH. Great dude!

Does your 24k aussie have the green mouth?

I'm trying to figure out exactly what I got lol

op what are you going to sell a head for?

Luke Schnabel · May 6, 2020

I honestly don't know I was looking for some input but people are being ridiculous. I got it from a local high end collector and said it was a holy grail. But what the heck everyone calls anything holy grail anymore. I would have to track him down to see where he got it from. Its defiantly a million times better then my Indo Dragon Souls that I have sitting right behind this, like not even close.
