Title: How much would YOU pay for a platz glass call
Post by: Happy hooker on April 29, 2018, 07:11:19 PM
I'm wondering?? If you had a chance to get a platz walnut glass in excellent condition what would be the highest "cash" amount you would go for one.
Like to hear a lot of input,ceilings.

Depends on how bad you want one, they are not readily available, they are top of the line calls. I have a couple but not for sale as of now. 200.00 to 350.00 range.

The same price as a Shaffer or Roberts. We place demand higher than quality. Many call makers make calls that are the same quality as Platz calls but we have to obtain the calls. Are they any better than a Platz?? I don't know but take away the name on the calls and let's see who can tell the difference???? All I am saying is guys will say that certain calls are the best- do you think the turkey says "nope I'm not coming cause that's a call not made by a top shelf maker?" Seriously? Buy the calls you like, hunt the calls you like and just enjoy the hunt! We over emphasize these high end calls to the point we are getting away from what it is all about.

No where close to the numbers mentioned but I am not a collector. Get what you can but do fair market.

Bought few around $175-200. Traded a $250 watkins fiddle for one also. I think a fair price on one is $125-$150. Just my opinion. Supply & demand sets the price, just like everything else.

For me it's not worth it even though I'm a pot call guy. But.. if your really into a call or call makers style then go for it. Case in point. I bought a Buice trumpet because I wanted one again and paid a pretty penny for it but this call has been one of the best moves I have made. Why? Because it just sounds so good I can't put it down. Only you can decide if it's worth it or not and should never feel you need to explain it at any time. Unless the Mrs. find out. Then good luck as she may kill you. LOL

My sentiments exactly. I have a few Platz calls and I'd never pay high dollar for em. They're good yes. Not anymore so than many others. Good post!

How much would I pay? $0. The difference in a MAC or Schaeffer isn't $100 or more dollars. I understand why folks pay what they pay, but I've listened to the sound files and it's just not $100 dollars better to me

If you want one bad, have the money for it ,and the family isn't going without buy it and I wouldn't care what anyone else thought.
How much would I pay ??? More than the next guy if I wanted it bad enough.
Like others have said it's pure supply and demand. I've spent money a'lot more foolish and I'm sure you have also without the chance to ever get money back if one ever wanted to do so.The way I am it will be when I'm toes up and my kids choose to do so.

I bet if I listed mine on here for 300 bucks , it would be gone within a few hours. Just saying. Peoples opinions vary and anything is worth what someone is willing to pay. May be crazy but that's the way it goes.

Agreed. Sort of... I don't think your call would last a couple of hours though - lol.

OP asked how much I would pay - and I'm sticking to my $80 - $100. But I KNOW folks will go much, much higher.

1300.00 for 2 with free shipping.

Ow pictures what's that?


Honesty I do not own a platz because every sound file I have heard I have 40.00 glass pots that sound as good if not better. I would give probably 50.00 for a new platz. That's just my opinion but I have paid allot more for other calls that probably were not worth the price but I wanted them.

So if a man wants to may 200-400.00 for one that's him I'm not gonna knock him.

Some guys pay 2500.00 for a Gibson call so it's all in what you like.

Some guys buy fords I ain't never understood that either.

I know that some will hate me for saying this, but it is what it is. I'm not slamming Paul, he makes a nice call. But from what I'm seeing, all of this "ISO Paul Platz" and Paul Platz this or that, isn't about he makes the best sounding call in the world. News flash, he doesn't. What this is really about is a few individuals scarfing up as many of his calls as they can and driving up the price. That's what this is really about. Hate me if you will but I've always called BS and told it like it was even if it hurts your feelings!

Mic DROP!

P.S. It will be evident who are the ones that feel guilty.

I've sold a call more then what it costed new but never double or 3 times as much.

Some these guys rush to Nashville and rush to the unicoi call builders show, they look for Paul platz and Clint corder and buy their calls out of their backpack because they don't set up a booth which I think is wrong, they pay 100-125.00 for them, then they Bring them back here and triple their money.

Uh o someone just spoiled the party.

I buy calls because I feel like buying calls. I don't sell or trade calls  and I hope I never have to, though if I do it would be a lot easier to sell or trade those in high demand.

As far as the overall theme of above statement from Chris, it sounds like a conflict of interest to me. We're in free market and the prices are dictated by availability amongst other factors.

Post by: hunter22 on May 01, 2018, 03:38:37 PM
Can you say supply and demand? A couple years ago Paul was selling his calls for around $65 if I remember correctly. His website showed him running his different calls and asking if you wanted to order one. Then he got married and had a baby and he stopped taking orders. Suddenly everyone wanted one of his calls because they were so hard to find. I have a few of Paul's calls and they are really good. But there are so many great pot call makers out there right now. I bet you could take several different calls from these guys and have someone blind run them and you could not pick out one call from another. Heck, I was killing gobblers for years with a store bought pot before I knew there was such a thing as a custom call.

Post by: JLH on May 01, 2018, 04:18:42 PM
They sell them out of their backpack so they don't have to pay for a booth.....and of course....skip the whole paying taxes thing.

Personally, I'd rather support the guy that is running a business, providing a service, not trying to make money.

As Chris B. said.....plenty of guys willing to sell you a call, and youll get it NOW, not in a friggin year..... And plenty of guys willing to work with you....plenty that don't charge 80-100 For a domestic piece of wood.

And all those call will flat out kill turkeys.

I'm currently on Paul's list,before he shut it down.
What would you give/ pay for my spot in line on list knowing you would get a "new" platz call of any type and design you wanted including the newly designed cool soundboard.
No,no,no i am NOT looking to sell my spot!!!! Just thought I would throw this out for fun.

I've had numerous OG guys send me sound files and I appreciate it but I ain't heard one yet that sounded as good as some the pots I have that cost 40-80.00 his calls do no have goo clear break and roll over they are not sharp and clear. Just not for me.

Here's a idea. Buy what you want and pay what you want. I ain't saying no names but there is a guy commenting that pushes his calls but don't get too many bites because personally the ones he builds sounds like crap to me and apparently to others as well. If you think Paul doesn't build good calls then you lost your mind. He builds a nice call. Also remember Paul hasn't pushed the prices to where they are and probably doesn't care one way or another if you buy one or not. I can tell you that there is no holy grail of turkey calls. Some guys collect calls as well as hints them. Don't like the price , keep running your 40 buck calls. Some need to get off their high horse. Paul builds a fine pot call and he is a good guy and if you know him you know it's the truth.

I guess I'm one of those people ::) even though I only own 5 Platz pots (4 glass and 1 slate) and none are doubles. I have owed pots by you and just about every bigger named call Maker and in my opinion Paul's pots are the best sounding I have owed. I work 40 hours a week and will spend my money on what I want and if that means spending $200 on a Platz pot I will. As far as buying Platz pots and reselling them, I have sold 1 Platz in the last year and the guy who bought it offered the price not me. There's another "ISO Platz" post on the classifieds right now were the guy says that he "has doubles of 3 of the harder to find Platz" and Paul himself told me that 3 of mine are harder to find because he didn't make many, if you don't think that's fishy you are crazy. Don't lump people into things when you don't know what's going on. Mic drop!!!
I agree 100% with both of you guys. You are both right. If you want the calls it's your money nothing wrong with that and if you sell something for more than what you paid and the buyer agreed there is nothing wrong with that at all either. I would probably pay 200$ for a Platz call just to say I have one but not a penny more. I know I won't find one anyway so I don't even look for them I will spend my money on the smaller call builders and get great customer service for a lot less money

Paul builds a fine pot call and he is a good guy and if you know him you know it's the truth.
Good saying

I like to get mine at Walmart so I can pickup diapers and pacifiers for all the cry babies on here as well.


That's a fact. Never seen so many people worrying about what a man spends his money on.

Shocking development, the callmaker who pimps their own calls harder than any on this site is the same one to say another guy doesn't make an exceptional call. Who'd have thought?

As I said, "It will be evident who are the ones that feel guilty."

In order for a call to be exceptional, in my opinion, it must look and sound exceptional. There are a ton of exceptional looking calls out there.

Your statement about others feeling the same as you do about my calls couldn't be further from reality. Sure, some don't like them... but a lot do. You usually chime in when you are felling guilty and you usually do it in an weasely way.

I know that some will hate me for saying this, but it is what it is. I'm not slamming Paul, he makes a nice call. But from what I'm seeing, all of this "ISO Paul Platz" and Paul Platz this or that, isn't about he makes the best sounding call in the world. News flash, he doesn't. What this is really about is a few individuals scarfing up as many of his calls as they can and driving up the price. That's what this is really about. Hate me if you will but I've always called BS and told it like it was even if it hurts your feelings!

Mic DROP!

P.S. It will be evident who are the ones that feel guilty.
I guess I'm one of those people ::) even though I only own 5 Platz pots (4 glass and 1 slate) and none are doubles. I have owed pots by you and just about every bigger named call Maker and in my opinion Paul's pots are the best sounding I have owed. I work 40 hours a week and will spend my money on what I want and if that means spending $200 on a Platz pot I will. As far as buying Platz pots and reselling them, I have sold 1 Platz in the last year and the guy who bought it offered the price not me. There's another "ISO Platz" post on the classifieds right now were the guy says that he "has doubles of 3 of the harder to find Platz" and Paul himself told me that 3 of mine are harder to find because he didn't make many, if you don't think that's fishy you are crazy. Don't lump people into things when you don't know what's going on. Mic drop!!!

Buying a pot or two from me doesn't buy my silence about what is going on. You're just mad that I called you out on it.

"Pimps", yes I enjoy sharing my calls with you guys. I have no problem saying that another callmaker makes an exceptional call if they actually do. FYI, I can think of several.

Guy seriously the guy asked how much would someone pay for a paul platz call,

The answer is however much someone wants to pay!

Let's not argue and fuss here, we all see things differently so let's all get along and hunt turkeys.

This topic has run its course. Both sides have voiced their opinions and now it's getting personal, which is uncalled for. The bottom line is neither a Platz nor a Corder will make every gobbler come running. I'm sure they are fine calls just like lots of others. Obviously, some prefer them over the others for whatever reason. What they're worth is what someone is willing to pay for them. If they're worth more to you than they are to me then so be it.

I think it's because people know what they sold for just a few short years ago is why. Maybe not that is just a guess. Yes I would love to have one but I am not willing to spend that much.

And here I am thinking pot calls running $100 was crazy...... Joined this site and seeing this thread and what people are saying willing to pay for one of these calls....... WOW.

How did I kill those birds with $10 and $20 pot calls thirty years ago????????

I haven't used mouth calls in 30 years and I'm getting back into it....

Good luck finding these calls, and may you get the price you want. :)

What would I pay for a Platz walnut glass? Well, I would pay him what he charges for one. No doubt he and many others make great sounding calls, but to me its like when you go to a great restaurant and the line is out to the parking lot. I'm going somewhere else. And I dang sure ain't gonna hang around and pay someone coming out the door with a meal 3 or 4 times the price after they have taken a bite or two. No offense to Paul, I hope he continues to have great business, good for him! Keep making great calls man.

I know that some will hate me for saying this, but it is what it is. I'm not slamming Paul, he makes a nice call. But from what I'm seeing, all of this "ISO Paul Platz" and Paul Platz this or that, isn't about he makes the best sounding call in the world. News flash, he doesn't. What this is really about is a few individuals scarfing up as many of his calls as they can and driving up the price. That's what this is really about. Hate me if you will but I've always called BS and told it like it was even if it hurts your feelings!

Mic DROP!

P.S. It will be evident who are the ones that feel guilty.

Curious how much you would be willing to pay for a Platz call...assuming you'd even buy one...hypothetical of course

I picked up a Platz from Platz at turkey trot for $150.  It is a great call and I can see why people are into his calls. 
Since I got it though, I have made up in my mind that I wouldn't pay more than $200, $250 max for any pot call no matter who made it, that I intend to keep for myself.

Nothing. I wouldn't buy one. I have all the calls I need!!!  A Ferrari is worthless if you don't know how to drive. A call is not going to make one a better caller; practice will. I killed my first turkey with the most pathetic sounding mouth call Bc I was inexperienced. But I knew cadence. Practice has made me sound better to myself and people - the only thing I know about turkeys are the ones who come into my sets!!!  So I keep practicing and keep calling. But over 100 bucks for a pot call?  No thanks!

Chris...Looks like your Platz call showed up in the mail yesterday per the tracking number so I'm guessing you've had a chance to play it by now if that's the "reason" why you bought it...to "hunt" with it ?!?! ...but I am still curious how much you'd be willing pay for one, like what's your ceiling...here it shows you payed $319.98 which is pretty much the going rate...that's some pretty good cheddar...that you've been complaining about but I'm assuming that bid wasn't your ceiling and could have still gotten bid up some more...so how much would you pay....I'm sure all the people you called out and complained about would be curious to know too...feel free to pick that mic up and let us know!!!

As a call maker yourself Chris, its in poor taste to talk like you have about a fellow call maker. Call makers should stick together, even if your call looks awfully similar to his. but don't worry, from the sound files Ive heard nobody will confuse the two.

Imo this needs to die and get back on the original posters topic..Paul didn't or doesn't have a list a mile long because his calls aren't any good. It's for a reason. They are pure turkey whatever surface you buy. I was fortunate and got on his list again before he stopped adding names. As fine of a gentleman as you would ever talk to that makes an awesome call!!!
If you have the money and arent on his list spend it you won't be disappointed. If you dont your lucky that cheaper calls kill turkeys also.

Pretty sure I've stayed on the topic, he wanted to bad mouth posters the whole thread and stuff and then ends up being a hypocrite and pays $319.98 for a call off of eBay so as the topic says, I'm just interested in what his ceiling is bc apparently it's more than $319.98

Keep twisting it, I never said anything about the man. Yes, it's true that I think that there are several other callmakers out their that maker better sounding calls.

Yup you'll have to lower the price bc I'm sure you use different glue than Paul does

Shocking development, the callmaker who pimps their own calls harder than any on this site is the same one to say another guy doesn't make an exceptional call. Who'd have thought?

"Pimps", yes I enjoy sharing my calls with you guys. I have no problem saying that another callmaker makes an exceptional call if they actually do. FYI, I can think of several.

Selling Paul short of anything but an exceptional call maker IS talking bad about the man.

Haha, I wouldn't sell it, but if I ever parted with it (don't plan on), it  would be in trade for a certain kind of short box in that price range.

I would say $319.98 says you do agree with everyone else...that's a lot of cheddar...shoot you could hire someone full time to pick the mic back up for you every time you dropped it for that price

When I first met Paul I think his calls were $65 and about a 4 months wait, he is a very nice man and an excellent call builder then and now. I am always willing to pay the maker his due price for his craftsmanship and time if I like his calls. What I don't do is pay random people massive profits for calls they didn't make, there seems to be a market for that kind of stuff but it's not with me. If a wait list becomes too long for me to wait on I simply purchase a call from a different maker, it doesn't mean I dislike someone's calls but there are too many great call makers to get hung up on  so called "collector items" when I'm trying to kill turkeys after all not make a bunch of camo wearing men jealous of a piece of wood with some glass or slate glued to it.
