anyone got one they'd like to part with?

Have you tried the Sky Blue Overdrive? Might make you happy til you find one of those. They are almost never on sale. Maybe once a year or so!

I used to own a sky blue and was thinking about adding one back to my board, but I thought I'd look around and see if I could find an aqua marine first haha.

Hahaha is right. If you do, it'll be in 1K range though. There are a few high-profile buyers out there just waiting for one. And they've been waiting for a while ....

I knew they were rare but I didn't realize anyone would be willing to spend that much on one. I could understand that possibly for a one off custom circuit....but a pedal that's a part of the mp line? sheesh.

Sky blue overdrive it is for me. I didn't imagine getting one for any less than around five hundred, but I'm definitely not going to drop that kind of money for one.

Nah, I had my AMWM posted here for quite a while and ultimately sold it for around $650 I think. Still, there's no reason to get the AMWM. The SBOD is identical. It wasn't really my favorite BJFE anyway (though I worked pretty hard on the contest to "win" it).

Yeah, I was gonna say I thought, $650 was more in the right ballpark, maybe a little more, maybe a little less.

Yeah but how long ago was that juston? I'm betting that if one came to be available now it would probably go for 800$ at least. If there's competition between two buyers it could go for 1K. Its obviously not for the sound. Its for collection purposes. But who knows, I may be wrong.

True, esp on ebay...no reserve auctions with competing bidders can pull some pretty high prices.

Last year, maybe? I don't remember. The pedal market is not very strong right now, at least in my experience as a seller. I have not been able to fetch the prices I was getting in 2008. At any rate, it's all academic until one actually goes up for sale. For those not interested in the collector's value, I'd recommend the SBOD.
