Good luck getting this Ben, but this one looks to be VERY hard to acquire at this time. That dude on the forums is willing to trade a Kaybee for it, and has no bites as of yet.
I’m pretty sure he found one already but the price was to high and he’s right. 

 

Indeed. I was willing to overpay. Just didn't work out. I am officially calling off the bounty today. Maybe down the road I can resume the obsession. :-)
 

For whatever reason this sign has gotten a mythical status as of late.  Your average WON Fiber sells for slightly under 2k, and this one seems to be valued at over 3k for whatever reason.  
 
I think your pricing is off a bit.  If you can get a WON Fiber under $2500 then you did good.  This SNES one is in a drought and public bounties like this are going to cause people to want a king's ransom.  Thankfully there's a Superbrite that is around $1500 which provides a nice placeholder.

But certain signs get hot when they drought and they have a lot of appeal.  Not sure if you saw the NES / SNES / GB Triad Superbrite sign sell at $4k on eBay a few months back but that sale was legit.  And people probably thought a fair price on it was much less. 

Holy crap! I have this sign. I had no idea it was worth that much.

I was suprised as well but fully support the price. :-)
