would love to try one, will be interesting to see what it goes for. way more than i can afford.

The real kicker is the seller stated my loss is your gain, not really sure what they are losing at that price!

It's sad that it has gotten to this point that a guy like me that just wants a nice call to actually use and hunt with cant even get one. One of these sold last month on here for $515 and I missed out.

Ended up going for 3700 that's insane

 Time to reluctantly chime in

First thing I'll say ...I have absolutely no idea who the person who sold the call..or who bid or purchased the call -

FYI -I consider myself a humble yet principled person - the guiding principle is my calls do "all the talking for me "

Most of you are very well aware that dodge collector and even more so flipper and middlemen types , there is no "list " I've mentioned many times in the past lists are the stock and trade of call flippers..

Regardless, they got a call that will call and kill turkeys in the right hands ... Best push pins made... IMO


The guy who bought it must have plenty of money, he has already bought over 6371 items off Ebay ...

I'm not a fan of speculation or assumptions so I'm going to set the record straight.

I'm the guy who sold the call on eBay. I also want to make a few points crystal clear:

I'm a turkey hunter first off and a call hobby collector second off

I do not collect calls to flip nor intend to make any profit off of any call that I've ever collected. Several members on here have bought calls from me in the past that were priced more than fairly.

I had tried for years to get my hands on one of these pushpins. Luckily over the last couple of years I was able to obtain more than one. I picked the one that I like the sound of best and intend to hunt. The other one I put on eBay to fund a predator rifle project.

I sell lots of things on eBay as I have been a member since 2005. It's my online yard sale.

I listed the call at what I paid for it and was hoping that it might bring a little bit more to cover the eBay fees and shipping which roughly 15% of price.

I am just as shocked as everyone else is at the sale price. I had no control over bids as it was an auction. I don't personally know the buyer, they may be a very wealthy person and to them $3700 may be like $370 or even $37.

I have other calls that I'll be listing on eBay along with several other items that I'd like to sell the fund my other hobbies. They will all be listed fairly and if they sell for more great, if they don't, that's OK too.

To Shannon, I appreciate your calls and the level of craftsmanship that you put into them. The push pin that I have and the duck calls that I have will continue to see use and hopefully more success in the woods. I also appreciate this forum and many friends I have met and the knowledge I've gained.

Those are the facts. I'm sure there will be lots of opinions on this and everyone is entitled to one. However, I couldn't stand by and let others paint a narrative of me.

Wish I could have afforded it!!   Would love to own one but I can see that would be a far stretch considering what that one went for.  Happy for the bidder and seller.  Hopefully one day I can get my hands on one
