What makes that ebay ad worse is the fact that you can buy Longclaw on Valyriansteel.com for $240.00.

Not Impressed with the pictures. Details look poor and cheap.

No... Longclaw is sold out, been sold out for a while. And that $300 listing will probably end up selling for $600-700 just like this other Longclaw did today...

All too true. Once a very hot collectible (in whatever genre)--like both versions of Longclaw and the stainless steel version of Ice (as three examples)--have gone OP, their Collector Prices *always* double or triple *immediately," and then they continue to go up from there; it's the Law of Supply and Demand. And Ice and Fire is certainly hot by anyone's standards.

I know because I'm a longtime collector (in many different diciplines), including genre swords and knives (AKA "wallhangers").

BTW, this specific thread has been discussed extensively under "The Objects of Ice and Fire" topic in the event anyone would like to read more.

Longclaw is currently at $673.00 and counting, with five days still to go as I post this. My guess: $800.00+...but the sky may also be the limit.
