The Next Propworx Star Trek Auction


Just to give you all a heads up. Propworx will be having another Star Trek auction, this time in April, 2011. We are already taking consignments and there will be some great items in this auction. I am putting about 3 dozen of my own items up for auction, and another major collector is putting in about 50. There will also be a TOS red minidress, an original TOS matte painting and more.

We think this will be an annual event, and hope that this will be THE place to buy and sell Star Trek items every year. If you are interested in consigning your Star Trek items to the auction, please let me know by emailing me at alec@propworx.com.

We will of course be producing our beautiful catalog, though this time we will only be offering it by download. We only sold about 200 Star Trek catalogs this past August and that simply is not enough to justify the $ 20,000 or so it costs to print one. But between the online viewing version of the catalog, the actual auction platform itself, and the downloadable PDF, we think everyone will have what they need.

It was interesting that we only sold about 200 catalogs leading up to the recent Stargate auction, yet we had almost 600 registered bidders! So obviously people do not feel the need to actually have the catalog in order to bid.


Feel free to call me with any questions!

Alec
