[Other] Rare PIAS Finds

[DJ Troll]

What's that Banshee worth? I have a way of getting one from a guy but it's a drive to meet up with him. Would it be worth my time?

 

[Fishy]

I have no clue what they are worth, but if it's a drive then it has to be cheaper to have him mail it to you. if I had to guess (and it's just a guess) I'd say $20ish.. for a good idea you'd have to ask someone like prerube or apdrvya.

20ish sounds right assuming max weight, no ink, taffy 10x

Went shopping today. Managed to get a 170 Pro Rhyno dyed 8/10 for $6, a first run Elite Pro XL (ink, but still a 8/10) $9 and a Buzzz-GT (going to try and acetone the ink off, 8/10) $10 at PIAS.

Saw the used bin had a lot of discs in it, so decided to rummage through. Ours never really has any thing special either, but figured I would try. Came across this for $5..

Found a beatup first run pro teebird... and that's actually the only thing of value I've ever found in the one in Ft Worth.... Usually it's just crap.

weight/condition/ink? soft or firm plastic?

I posted it in the "whats this disc worth" thread Haha But it's pretty damn light, surprisingly. 168g. Very faded ink on the back. It's a solid 7/10. Very firm.

First run pro teebirds aren't worth anything special...they were made out of a sweet feeling but terribly fragile blend of pro plastic that starts to peel instead of chunk when it gets beat up.

Lol I know this, but really it's the only thing even remotely "rare" lol I bought it just because I wanted it. Now I don't want it anymore, finding a buyer or trade for it being in crap condition will be tough... Maybe I'll do a package deal lol

I did find an older run Z flick that is flexible.... Idk if it's a misprint or something... It's realllly flexible.

Got two mailing list emails from PIAS for my area's stores. Each had a printable coupon for 50% off ANY ITEM (max $100 off). Picked up 2 new overpriced Innova Sports reg at $199 for only $100 each.

 

[PallMall]

never anything at my local pias or what i call P.O.S.sports.. God what i would give to get a kc pro cheetah again. I miss my green 175 that was stolen from me on the local course.

Got a 175 11x kc pro teebird for 6 bucks. All used discs are 6 bucks at Wichita. Also picked up a champ valk and star vulcan as well. Passed on two circle stamp eagles due to condition.

 

[schnelle]

Havent had much luck. But circle and bar stamps are pretty common. Good way to pick up a nice conditioned disc as long as you dont mind ink.

I did grad school at Wichita State and wish I would've gotten into DG when there! So reading this makes me slightly sad.

I picked up a lightly used, black, Elite Storm for 3.99 few weeks ago at my local PIAS. What a sweet mid-range add to my bag.:thmbup:

 

[Kingace]

I found a nice Sweden tennis ball for 79cents

 

[techn9cian4life]

Something that's not "rare" but it is rare to find in the PIAS used bin.... a pink 175g SSS Wizard beautifully beaten in for $5. Best believe I picked that up.
