I have just purchased these two Hab's Stubby's 3.5 ounce models. Any ideas on the estimated value - I think I got a good deal on these - purchased for a private collection, not to use.
View Full Version : Hab's Stubby's - estimated value? Line Sider 06-29-2008, 06:26 PM I have just purchased these two Hab's Stubby's 3.5 ounce models. Any ideas on the estimated value - I think I got a good deal on these - purchased for a private collection, not to use. spence 06-29-2008, 06:44 PM About 5 bucks each, but I'd be willing to offer 10 :hee: Considering they'd retail for 20-25 I'd think they would be worth 30-35 bucks in a rational sense. But considering what goes on on Ebay who really knows. Aside from being a really nice plug there's nothing all that special about them. -spence Line Sider 06-29-2008, 07:29 PM you confirmed what I felt they were worth and what I paid - to me the value is really about a nice plug not the money. spence 06-29-2008, 07:38 PM I'd fish 'em. -spence FishNH 06-29-2008, 08:54 PM they go for around $45 to $50 each if new WoodyCT 06-30-2008, 12:04 PM I'd fish 'em. -spence Heck, I'm fishing one I paid $75 for. Hab's would want it that way I bet. Woody RIROCKHOUND 06-30-2008, 08:22 PM Damn... 75.00 buys a lot of eels :D spence 06-30-2008, 08:25 PM Heck, I'm fishing one I paid $75 for. Hab's would want it that way I bet. Woody Well, that's my opinion. Like I indicated, market value may be higher...and I agree. They be meant to be fished. -specne Line Sider 07-01-2008, 08:19 AM Damn... 75.00 buys a lot of eels :D $75 used to buy a lot of gas for fishing, I admit - I paid around $25 for each of these and cant see myself buying $75 plugs - purely because my wife would kill me for spending that kind of coin with a newborn in the house.

Mr. Sandman 08-14-2008, 01:16 PM Funny this post is here. I had picked up 3 of these, 2 black and purp and one blue a couple weeks before Hab's passed. I had been fishing two of them with good sucess. (These are a great lure for rough conditions) I broke the last one out of the package yesterday fished it. I am making a mold of something similar and will make some out of hard plastic since the wood ones are a pia to get. vBulletin® v3.8.7, Copyright ©2000-2025, vBulletin Solutions, Inc.
