@patternpalette I’d do it for ten k off Etsy if that helps any. That’s fair market on an original silver owsley. And Michigan cool. My dad lives out there. Was just visiting back in November

@starwindgallery I spoke with my my boyfriend about your generosity in making such an amazing offer. However, he doesn't know if he has enough weight to hold that buckle up the way it should be held up loud and proud! GDFFL🌹
Please keep in contact whenever you are in Michigan. Would love to meet up, chit chat, and show you some Michigan love!
Thank you so much for the opportunity and the offer. I'm very grateful for that!

@soulshinemaine good morning sister! Thank you for stopping by! Oh yeah we’re def not holding court for any thievery - with you on that! It’s value is a thing of it’s own, much like a legacy,

@soulshinemaine i got this one back in the 90s from Owsley in person. I can’t remember I paid either 3 or 5k cash around 25+ years ago. Once Owsley passed away they went up in value to reflect that the ones already cast up to that point would be the only ones in existence.

@soulshinemaine I’ve heard but haven’t confirmed that his son Starfinder offers some newer recasts? Is that what you know too? Either way, my GD circles say these days that the original silver Owsleys are at 10k and the bronzes are 5k. Poshmark puts the 2500 on for their cut. Blessings and peace......Starwind

@soulshinemaine P.S I’m open to honest offers. And I’m far from a thief. Always thought I’d wear this buckle to my grave or pass it down to my kids if I have them. But if someone else wanted to buy it for what they’re going for these days....consider the appreciation my fee for traveling through time to deliver it from Owsley to you!

@gratefulg00ds hey now Sam! Brother you know it! Mythical. I bought it from Oz himself in ‘98. Wore it for decades and recently had to part with it due to harder financial times. Peace to you
