I always used the carbon striker that comes with them, did you get the carbon Striker ? ... that carbon striker plays pretty good with them...

Anywhere form 50 - 100 dollars , just depends on how bad someone wants one ... the ones with no writing or turkey on the bottom are the older ones and are the first ones made, so in my opinion they are worth more than the ones with the gobbler on the can .... less were made with the plain bottoms ....

I like the carbon striker for the crystal thunderdome. For my slate thunderdome I like the fred cox snowgoose striker and a rosewood striker  sound the best.

A few years back, I saw one go for $400. 
They are a good call.  I have a buddy that only hunts with a Crystal Thunderdome.  Has for years.

I got lucky and picked up a Thunderdome Aluminum surface. Has the best sound so far. I have only ever seen this one. I use the carbon striker and a Stuckey Ebony with it. Will be in the vest for sure. Thanks
