Not Mine eBay Starbursts (1 Viewer)

[BSteck]

Sorry (not sorry) if I sniped someone on these Starbursts. But I was just after the purples - if the other bidder is interested in the reds and blues drop me a PM.

Seems like a pretty good price for mint starbursts.

Plus a case…

I’m guessing Royal red, Sky blue and Lavender. If anyone wants to send me their Paulson color sample set I’d be happy to confirm when they get here.

Looks like Royal Red, Dolphin Blue, and Purple to me.

Yep … was 50/50 on sky vs dolphin but I think you might be right on the Dolphin blue.

I'm thinking either dolphin or day blue, maybe even desert flower. Sky blue's too light of a color for those.

Crazy times we're living in.

Dolphin Blue and Desert Flower are very close.

Congrats on the pickup! I don't mind being outbid, it just means someone wanted to pay more than I did. The wife and I went back and forth on whether to bid in the first place - like you (and probably everyone) we were just looking for the purples but were okay with the other two colors coming along for the ride if necessary.

I think it's a new high for mint starbursts, at least on the open market (not sure what the PM-based market is doing these days). But then again, "a new high" is the new normal.

so it goes ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

FWIW, I got these on eBay for $175, back in March, which seemed like a good deal to me - fair price at the least.
Yours seem like the same color and are definitely in better condition, and the market has gotten noticeably crazier in the past 6 months. So yeah, I like your deal. And the case.

You might be right. I’m totally biased. I love starbursts - round lead bricks. I see what people pay for RHCs these days and I shake my head. I’m not saying I love non-denominated chips for much else than fracs, but given what other chips are selling for these days, mint starbursts for around $2 per chip seems like a bargain to my biased ass.
