GLO FRIENDS - Value - What are Glo Friends worth?



You may notice that most posts have something like this typed at the end of an item's description or blog post: "---$---". You probably guessed right. I'm trying to come up with some sort of Value system for us collectors. I have mentioned before that it's really hard to pin down the values of these items. I think most would agree that it has gone down a little in value. Prices people pay to purchase these also fluctuates greatly. 

I attempted to pin down a range, warning you that sometimes they go for more/less and it's probably one of those freak circumstances where someone is: extremely desperate at that time to have it -or- broke that week -or- forgot all about that auction we were supposed to bid on. At least, that's what I have personally experienced. 

I do need to work on the value system more. But, I haven't had much time to update this blog so I thought I'd just share what I have worked on so far. I'll make changes to it later. 

Below is a Value Key that gives a range of prices that people may pay. Some will also show a "+" to show that there's a good chance it will go for a little bit more. Some will show a range like $$-$$$ because there is a truly wide range of how much the value is.



Value Key

---$---         $1 - $30
---$$---       $30 - $60
---$$$---     $60 - $100
---$$$$---   $100+

GLO FRIENDS Finger Puppets are shown here with what I believe to be their matching bags, based on my own collection and researching the others. I mentioned in a previous post that you need to know the bag color as well as the thread color when matching them up properly.

Check out my Page that has the Glo Friends Finger Puppet Bag Checklist for more detail.

UPDATE: I want to thank a special ebayer for looking into their own collection of packaged figures to confirm that the colors shown in these pictures are correct, except for Glo Bug. It should be the purple/pink bag, not the one shown. The checklist (see "Pages" section for Checklist) appears to be correct though. And, I just realized that I missed Firefly on here. I'll correct this sometime in the future. Until then, use the checklist! ;)
