Warrington Pin Badges : Fri Apr 17, 2009 9:53 am  

Does anyone know where I can get a pin badge of the club badge from the 80's or if anyone has got one that they no longer use how much do you want for it?

IT depends on which one you want, some go for quite a bit, there's a bloke on e bay who sells copies (as the real thing ) they go for anything from £4 to £10.

i collect badges and have got a few from the 80's but paid a bit for them.

the bloke who used to stand outside wilderspool is from leeds!

he will be at the bradford match probably, i usually have a chat with him as i've bought badges from him for years.

check the rugby press for collector fayres, the're your best bet TBH


HOPE THAT HELPED

cheers slim. I don't mind paying out. I suspected they would be quite rare now. What do you mean by copies though?

THE bloke's selling copies of nice 80's and 70's wire badges as originals, when you get them, there's no difference apART from you can tell they were made last week (no sign of ageing, wear and tear) and he has too many for sale of the same badge every week, the club did not make that many at the time.

does that make sense,



i bought one for £6.00, they only cost about a quid to make in bulk, they look the business, but a good original could cost more than a tenner depending on which one it was.

some clubs have original pin/ enamel badges made of silver 50/60/70's era, you can pay up to £80 for some..

sorry turning into anorak in front of your eyes
