The quest for the golden Hau!


UngluedBike

Recommended Posts

Hey everyone, Bike here, I've decided I'm going to do something special: Buy one of the GOLDEN HAUS. After seeing Mask collector's 'quest', I decided it was time to set out on my own one.
But I'm going to need everyone's help, and I'll be running this thing in three stages:
1: Track down all owners and convince one of them to sell
2: Fundraise
- I'll list everything I have here after I've found a seller
- this includes non-bionicle stuff
- Postage shouldn't be expensive to most countries
3: and finally, PURCHASE

I haven't got much time at the moment to write a detailed post, I'll get back to that one. PM me if you have any enquires, or if you know anyone who may sell.

Catch you all later,
Bike

If you plan on selling any Bionicles, I know that BionicleFanatic would be more then happy to buy some!

EDIT: need to track down a golden Hau first!

Pretty cool to see more Bionicle fans wanting to chase down HTF collectibles. Wish I could get a Gold Hau someday :P

I don't know if I will, but I'm giving it a shot XD its probably gonna cost an arm and a leg :) also what does HTF stand for?

Hmm.. I will certainly be keeping track of this topic since I am looking to increase my bionicle collection. After losing most of it due to unforeseen circumstances I think it is time I work towards getting it back.

Sounds good, but remember I can't sell anything until I find a seller for the golden Hau. I can get this done faster with help from the community, so links to any sites with information would be good!

 

EDIT: I am in pursuit of an owner right now!

Wow, that was incredibly fast. Who did you find?

- :t: :l: :h:

well well, I thought you might turn up Lhikan, I'm not going to disclose the owners name for now,

if he declines selling it then I'll tell you.

 

EDIT: I've got a price tag, its £8000-£10000, is it worth going for? it seems to be the only opportunity at the moment.

Ha, don't worry about me. I'm not rude enough to try and steal somebody else's dealing with a seller. I mis-worded my question and just meant to ask where did you find the seller? His identity can stay your secret.

 

Dang! That is a lot and quite a price range for a single mask. I honestly don't know if I would pay that for it seeing as you'd be paying more than MC did for the Platinum Avohkii. Supply and demand, I suppose. The owner is controlling a part of the supply so he can sell it for however much someone is willing to pay.

well I found the guy on 'the next best bionicle forum' he told me that Mc was after it (peculiar?) anyway if I can lower the price I will, but to be honest opportunities like this, no matter how expensive, do not come often enough for this to be thrown away. If he agrees to sell then my quest shall begin!

Hehe, I know who your talking about, but when I talked to him months ago the price tag was different, to say the least. Before I had my hau, I was considering buying his, but for the price he wanted I kept looking around And eventually stumbled into mine.

 

Mc

Edit: The person your taking with also offered to loan his to me for my gallery as a guest exhibit

I bet you would have been happy with 2 Haus! anyway, do you know of any other owners? I may purchase from 'the guy', but I wanted to see if anyone else is known of that owns one?

 

EDIT: I now know of three owners, 2 of which haven't gotten back to me. I'm currently waiting on responses and as soon as one clears, then I'll list everything.

ok another guy says £3000. Is that reasonable?

That still sounds kinda high, if I was buying one, I wouldn't go for more than $1500

 

EDIT:

I don't really have any experience buying masks, so don't take my answer as really experienced

Where did you find the guy (again, not asking for identity) who will sell it for £3000?

 

- :t::l::h:

reddit, I think you contacted him already judging from his post.

 

anyway, I changed the offer now, I'm currently negotiating a new price.

Not quite, but we're working on it.

Imagine all of the other Bionicles you could get for that, you should totally wait and find someone selling for cheaper.

I myself wouldn't pay that for a gold hau, and I own one! the Platinum Avohkii was different because it was so rare and do valuable, but the gold hau, even being as rare as it is still isn't worth ten thousand euros.

How much did you pay for yours, if you don't mind me asking?

well, considering that 4 out of 5 owners have confessed themselves on the internet,

1. belongs to Mc, its not going anywhere :P

2. is probably going to be bought by TLH

3. The £10000 guy

4. Kjaffa (joined here a while ago and then became inactive, no other means of contact

5. Unknown

 

so those are my only options

If it is your last resort, and he will only sell it for that much. then go for it, but you will have to have a lot of stuff to sale, i sold a good amount of rares from my collection to get the Platinum Avohkii, not including non Bionicle stuff i sold, and saving funds from my job as well!

 

Good Luck, but wait for the Reddit guy to respond. You never know, luck may be on your side!

Yeah I think I will wait on the reddit guy but I think he saw my initial offer of £300 as a low ball XD

Try going for something like £1000, that bigger number sounds more enticing :)

sounds like a good idea! :)

 

things aren't looking good, The Reddit guy hasn't responded, but I know one other thing I can do before resorting to the £10000 guy.

I'll keep it to myself for now :P

Epic. For everyone's information, I currently have no leads on a gold Hau. All the sellers just stopped replying to my messages....Anyway, on that note, I will now be treating this as a general trading topic.

I will quickly list a few items in this post:

-MISB Vhisola

-MISB Toa Hagah Iruini (£25 to thatgamingguy)

-MISB Mata Nui Pohatu Nuva

-MISB Toa Matau (opened for nostalgia reasons)

shoot me an offer, and if you pay this evening, you get: Red Kakama OR Tan Mahiki OR Light Blue Komau (all sold to thatgamingguy). Post on interest!

I would be willing to pay the enormous, totally fair, expensive sum of $1.00 for the golden Hau!!!!! I wish I had the money to buy one from someone, but I'm saving for a tip to Switzerland. This is a joke, so don't send me a golden Hau and hope you'll get $1.00. (The trip part is real, though.)

I HATE SCORPIOS
