TB2 - what's considered 'low number' and does it affect value?

[saltparrot]

just curious on the thoughts of the board on this subject.

000 and 001 are low...

It should only affect price if we can prove they were made sequentially...

So from your perspective 199 and lower are considered low?

199 out of how many? 200?

What if # 199 was actually made before # 002, but it just got the lower number plate because they were all in a pile?

I think serial numbers are cool ... it can prove a specific frame's heritage (like a J serial VS a G5 sku)

But to think one carabiner or watch is more expensive because the number is lower ... meh!

They probably weren't.

420 and 69 are the most valuable.

I personally don't place any value on numbers, unless its 1 of 1.

I'll take #420 of whatever y'all are sellin.

Also. That new guy on O Review, can't remember his name, old O employee, said that the X Metals were numbered in the order that they were made.


I'm just the messenger!

I would say it would be determined by how bad a person wants a certain number. Some try to collect all of the same number on each piece. I'd say they may be able to trade an identical item for it though as well.

Yeah. Try getting all of the holiday items the same number then needing one more and someone having it but wanting an extra $50 because he knows you're gonna pay it.
