Re: Okie Drifters on Ebay
You beat me to it.
I'm going out to clean the garage & see how many I can come up with.
I could take a few quided trips if I find enough of them. 
Someone came up with a supply of rare ones for sure.

Re: Okie Drifters on Ebay
Looks like maybe they should go back into production... I would say there is some money to be made there

Re: Okie Drifters on Ebay
I only paid a guy $20 for 20 okies here on Ifish a couple months ago. Maybe I should "flip" them on eBay.

Re: Okie Drifters on Ebay
The current market on Okies will no doubt crash.Only a handful of serious buyers willing to pay that kind of money. What was thought to be a limited supply is just not the case any longer.

That's just ridiculous! I might have to go see what I have lying around in the garage to for prices like these. Dang!

I just looked and it is now down to $227, looks to me like bids were retracted, maybe someone is artificially trying to drive up the cost!

Re: Okie Drifters on Ebay
I don't get why Luhr Jenson doesnt resurrect these. Or at least Brads dosen't make them in bigger sizes. They are great drift bobbers that actually float. Love em. I notice its getting harder to find spindrifters ( aka: Birdy drifters ) too . I wonder if danielson is closing them out.

Re: Okie Drifters on Ebay
the ones that brad's sell are just fine...the only issue i've had with them is that the color selection is pretty horrendous.

Re: Okie Drifters on Ebay
These kinds of battles on eBay are nothing new. It's the collectors that drive the prices up, along with those who just think it must be something good since everyone is bidding on it. Some of those folks will drive the price up because they'll bid until they get it. Then there are those who sneak in and bid something up for their buddy. If it looks like it's too much to you, then it probably is.

That's what I was wondering. By the looks of his gear he must have one heck of a part time job
