C W Burfle posted:When released, 8470 Gold Chessie Geep could be purchased for $25 in my area. It initially shot up to $150. Today they can be had for around $75. All these prices are for mint pieces with nice, clean boxes.
I guess the folks who did pay $25 would make some money selling theirs if they kept it mint.
Not so much for the people who paid $150.
I finally got one years later for somewhere around $60-$75.
Actually, Harry Henning has two on his table today at York for $50 each . . .
