Premier Collectibles Auction Results for Original Props

By

As reported in April and May (see Premier Collectible Auctions – Catalog Out, Online Bidding Live), a new venture called Premier Collectibles launched with a auction held during and in proximity to the Comic-Con International 2008 in San Diego last week.  While predominently a toy/action figure auction event, there were some original props and costumes, so I thought it would be appropriate to make note of the results below.

In a cursory review of eBay listings, it appears that only two of the props/prop-related items that were part of the event sold at auction:
