Late Monday eBay Roundup (XX)

Hello people!

I apologize for this late Monday eBay Roundup entry, yesterday I wasn't able to steal any time at all. But better late than never, right? Let's see what new items we can find this week:

- GABRIELLE'S S1 FULL PEASANT COSTUME


   > Character: Gabrielle, during S1
   > Material: Different kinds of fabric (linen?)
   Papers: COA from It's a Wrap!
   Seller: deguston
   Price: $4,000 plus shipping (only USA)

   > Opinion: Just WOW! This is definitely something! A highly iconic, well preserved and super rare piece from the beginning of Season 1 no less! It would deserve a whole entry all by itself :) The costume comes with all the paperwork plus some extra stuff like a handwritten letter from RenĂ©e and a signed photo. It's clearly very expensive, but those who collect original costumes will know it's not out of a "usual" price range for pieces like this.

If you want to know more about this costume I refer you to the magnificent replica that Liz (fellow blogger and amazing cosplayer) did and documented in her blog, Gift of the Gab.

- SCREENUSED RESIN PROP SWORD


   > Character: Unknown
   > Material: Urethane resin
   Papers: Not mentioned
   Seller: llamawerntz
   Price: $2,500 plus shipping (only USA)

   > Opinion: All right. This is a nice resin sword, and it looks to be in good condition, but come on. No mention of any kind of COA, nor to any character having used it. Just the sword and a very high price. Gab's costume is a unique piece, so the three zeros are worth it, but in my opinion (and judging from previous similar sales) this prop sword is simply overpriced.

- AMAZON NECKLACE PROP


   > Character: Unknown Amazon
   > Material: Beads. Leather.
   Papers: Not included
   Seller: amazonsrule2015
   Price: $9.99 plus shipping

   > Opinion: This is more like it. Here we have a very nice looking prop necklace. There's no COA, but seller claims it was used by one/some? of the Amazons. It might be true - there's no reason to doubt the word of the seller (this particular eBayer has been listing Xena props and replicas for a long time, with no bad feedback) and the price is very reasonable.

- AMAZON BELT PROP


   > Character: Unknown Amazon
   > Material: Leather. Feathers.
   Papers: Not included
   Seller: amazonsrule2015
   Price: $29.99 plus shipping

   > Opinion: Same seller, and similarly interesting scenario. Like the necklace above, this belt is also an alleged amazon piece, with no COA. It too looks really cool, and has a good price - a bit higher due to the more intricate nature of this particular piece.

- GABRIELLE JEWELRY SET


   > Character: Gabrielle in S2 "Blind Faith"
   > Material: Metal. Leather.
   Papers: COA form Turners
   Seller: beatles-rock
   Price: $350 plus shipping

   > Opinion: We have seen these before, but price has been reduced to a much more appealing amount, so I saw fit to include them in this week roundup. I invite you to check the listing for more detailed information.

- TODD'S COSTUMES XENA SWORD REPLICA #241


   > Manufacturer: Todd's Costumes
   > Number: 241/3000
   > COA: Included
   > Seller: roberthsnipes
   > Price: $1,000 plus shipping

   > Opinion: Attention here. This is NOT an "authentic prop" as the listing says, this is a replica. Have that in mind before biding blindly. The COA is included, so you just have to check the photos to confirm what I'm saying. This kind of swords (of which we have seen a few as of late) are usually sold for HALF this price, so don't do anything you may regret later.

- FULL XENA COSTUME REPLICA BY TODD'S COSTUMES


   > Manufacturer: Todd's Costumes
   > COA: Not mentioned
   > Seller: marlene0487
   > Price: $1,500 plus shipping (only USA), or Buy Now for $2,200

   > Opinion: Todd's Xena costumes are very popular, and this comes for a good price. Listing says it doesn't include the scabbard and that one armband is damaged. Chakram and sword are plastic. Measures can be read in the listing description.

- MARTO'S XENA 10th ANNIVERSARY KATANA REPLICA


   > Manufacturer: Marto of Toledo
   > Number: Unknown
   > COA: Included
   > Seller: anniehakey01
   > Price: $200 plus shipping (only USA), or Buy Now for $500

   > Opinion: Again, a 10th Anniversary gold Xena katana replica. Same opinion as always - nice katana, so-so replica. On the bright side, it comes with a cool stand and price is quite good!
