The Repro Bee light goes for $ 29.500. Is that with fees?

I can't remember what the Repro Bee lights originally sold for. I know that I paid $ 225 including shipping for my RTS light from you.

$ 29.500 buys 131 RTS lights including shipping at the original price. Was that about 1/2 of your total run?

I canโ€™t recall exactly, but I think I sold about 600 Bees and about 250 Rapid Transit signs. If only Iโ€™d priced them that high, Iโ€™d be sitting on about 18 million. Time to sell the tooling.๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

Floyd - I should have bought one of these from you at the Gnats many years ago!!! SET UP AGAIN & RUN THEM!

One of my good friends has one of the ORIGINAL showroom wall Bees.

The sign was marketed as a 1970 original, with a production stamp of 1997 on the bottom of the sign. Around half the items marked on Monday as original, were reproductions.

People always say "bidders are drunk". I wonder how many have ever been to an auction and actually watched who buys. Most of the "drunks" at auction are with the guys that spend money. They're there for the party. Of course on occasion someone will get lit and bid. However, most of these cars crossed before 3pm, not sure how many people are hammered at that time.

I recall Floyd's signs selling for $375.00 about 20 years (+/-) at the Nats. They were much smaller size than the original signs, but very nice quality - nicer than the originals.

The Bees started out at $200 and the RTS at $225. Later runs of Bees were $250. As a last hurrah, I put together about 20 Bees and 5-7 RTS signs using left over parts and seconds. The price went up as they dwindled (the money went to a good cause - my 2-post lift๐Ÿ˜€). I would guess non-insane going rate bounces between several hundred to $1000.

I don't know about the 1997 date.

I bought my RTS light 1/2001 for $ 225, "Shipping and Handling Included."

At the same time the Bee lights were advertised for $ 210, "Shipping and Handling Included."
