Balloon is on the list. I own the trivia but its not on the list as I try to stay away from the paper stuff. No banners or ads either.

Roughly, there are 30 times more bronze rings than silver. If a bronze ring sells for $15-$50(we'll say $20), should a silver ring go for $600? Would anyone here be crazy enough to shell out that kind of money? What would you pay for one? What HAVE you paid for one?

I got guy to end his ebay auction early and paid $100 for mine. I thought it was a bit much but I figured I'd never see another for sale again and I went for it. I'm glad I did too, seeing as there are only 155 of them around. A few weeks ago Kevin Vanhook sold a pair(silver/bronze) on the board, but the price was not advertised. Siren3-4(probably) may be able to answer that question(if he wants to).

I like them as well. I have the ninjak silver and the xo bronze. I was about 12 when it (the xo ring) came out and the only other rign I owned was a glow in the dark green lantern plastic ring that I got with a subscription to green lantern mosaic. Needless to say I was very happy to get any ring that was more realistic.

The quality of the rings are not bad. I think the xo ring is a little more sturdy as the band is extremely thick. The ninjak ring seems a little less thick. at least in the band.

Does your GL ring still glow in the dark? I had one of those too :D I also have the X-O Bronze ring, dont think i ever wore it though

Yeah, but really, where did you get those numbers? Did you contact Planet Studios or something? I'm really just innocently curious...

There's nothing innocent about you geocarr. :P No, I got them from another thread where it was talked about. Someone who did contact Planet Studios and actually bought alot of the rings.

I bought a bronze X-O and Ninjak, boxed (I know sonicdan had something to do with my acquiring one and the other came off eBay). I don't think I paid more than $15 for each of them. They came in the mail, I opened, verified they were in their respective boxes and stored them away). :oops:

But it would take a crazy offer to get me to part with either one.

I think it was something Bo Blayton had. Maybe 14k gold plated iirc. I'm pretty sure someone on the board has it. Greg maybe? Evil Greg?
