Bulldog 48 star flag, Swatch watch, Standard oil lighter, Bob & Tom marble

[inspectorgadget]

Got this Bulldog Bunting United States 48 star 3'6" x 6'8" flag that was wrapped up in an old bag & it appears to be unused. The people selling it didn't even know it was a 48 star flag...lol. I gave $1 for it... A well used & slightly tattered (fading & some holes &/or rips) Bulldog one this exact size recently sold on eBay for $100. This one has to be worth a bit more in this pristine unused condition!

Swatch watch 1986 Sir Swatch, the bands are not original but are Swatch bands & for a quarter any old Swatch watch is worth that. I'll prolly get $15 out of it.

Older Standard Oil American oil motor club zippo style lighter (it's really a Temple, made in Japan). It's unused & I couldn't find a value on eBay. None on there now & none recently completed. Oil/gas company stuff usually does really well!

Q95 (WFBQ 95) Bob & Tom marble. This marble is a bit larger than a shooter & this radio station is a local rock & roll radio station where the radio morning show "The Bob & Tom Show" started out way back in the early 80's that went into national syndication in the mid 90's. They were better the 13 or so years before they went into syndication, they were sort of old played out news in Indianapolis by that time. Anyway I can't find another one of these marbles & it's an item that will be very hard to value IMO. I gave 25 cents for it. BTW the design is inside the marble not printed on it.

Whats that Swatch worth? I in the past ran across a young gal working in a pawn shop who was a Swatch junky. She had like 500 Swatch's. I'd get 10, 15, 20 bucks from her every time I'd find them under those prices. I took her some for the last time and she was pregnant and told me her hubby said she needs to find some intervention on her habit and knock off the Swatch buying. That was the end to my source to unload for a quick sale. I did sell a few on eBay, but haven't checked how they do lately. Funny I'm not seeing Swatch's like you would 15 years ago. Maybe they're getting rare to find these days??

That one in that condition is worth about $15-$20 tops. There are some worth hundreds if they are in great pristine condition or even better yet some of the NOS ones. The Swatch wall clocks have value too.

I just sold 4 Swatch watches recently. The best selling one was the skin watch, sold for $31. The others were around $20 each but they were mens or unisex style. Of course the "original jelly" that I have is the only one that did not work after I replaced the battery. You know, the one worth the most money if working.

Well that sux about the jelly! But if one wasn't going to work of course it was that one, or well with my luck it would have been the one that didn't work out of that group if I had them!
