Hmmmm.... just checked the team roster and he seems to be missing. That was quick... and quiet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AmishBengalFan Posted August 5, 2022 Report Share Posted August 5, 2022 These are nice, and they didn't have to do this.... but as of right now there are over 10,300 pickups remaining, each of which will involve 2-4 rings, so I figure that they're distributing 20-30,000 in all. Even though Lizzy B is almost certainly behind this, I am confident that the team didn't spend over $1M making these, so my guess is that each one cost them no more than fifty bucks to make. Don't get me wrong - I am NOT disparaging this at all and am thrilled that the team is doing this thing for their season ticket holders. But when they say these are replica rings... well.... here's what the Josten's site shows for the rings the players got: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's gonna be 2-3 weeks before this distribution completes, after which an team will have hundreds of unclaimed ring because ST members have to go to PBS to pick them up - lots and lots of them either live too far away to make a special mid-week trip or are more local but missed the email or can't/won't make arrangements. I would not be surprised if the remaining rings will be made available for purchase via the team at some point is August or September. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AmishBengalFan Posted August 16, 2022 Report Share Posted August 16, 2022 The first one has popped up on eBay. As expected, it's listed at about 10x it's worth. https://www.ebay.com/itm/234660539423 $300. Lol. Have patience. As more show up the prices will come down. When the team announces it's plan regarding unclaimed rings, the prices will likely plummet. Update.... Another one. $50 less. The scalpers are already undercutting each other... https://www.ebay.com/itm/225120335896 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MOC Posted August 16, 2022 Report Share Posted August 16, 2022 If the distribution is anything like the toques (beauty day eh) they gave out last year, they gave those out to STM's until the last regular season home game at a booth behind the south end zone.

AmishBengalFan Posted August 17, 2022 Report Share Posted August 17, 2022 eBay scalper prices keep falling. 48h in and they're down to $125, nearly two-thirds less than Monday's starting price, and there's already a dozen listings. Have patience folks.... if you really want to buy one they'll be cheaper soon and I expect there will be HUNDREDS of them available before all is said and done. Supply > Demand Edited to add: A lot of the listings are from sellers with ZERO percent ratings. Red flag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're shitting me. I have a 5h round-trip to PBS and didn't make the drive just for a ski cap, but never knew they were distributing them at games. Dammit, my head was cold at least once that season. Lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, for real. That's where my brother and I picked ours up. I just sent an email to my ST rep asking her if they were going to do the same for the rings. I got a 4 hour round trip and not going to go just for the rings, so we'll see what she says? I'll let you know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
