UngluedBike Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 (edited) I can give you the email address of a guy who has one, though he won't sell cheaply He wants $16000 for it There are around 30 gold Haus believed to be in existence. some belong to Lego employees, though most were given away to lucky individuals. The last one was given out in 2006 I believe. -bike Edited January 2, 2015 by UngluedBike 2 Quote Also, if you're a resident of the UK and like Bionicle, go ahead and join us at this awesome Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/BFUK7/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IcarusBen Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 Okay, $16k for a KANOHI MASK? I get that it's gold, but... seriously? That's way too much.

Jobber Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 Okay, $16k for a KANOHI MASK? I get that it's gold, but... seriously? That's way too much.It's barley worth 6k.

lessovikk4 Posted January 18, 2015 Author Share Posted January 18, 2015 McPhillip16000$ guy??That's what I got so far, and the platinum avohkii went for 15k, the eBay auction was taken down I believe when mc contacted the seller and convinced him to sell it to him. The seller mentioned he had higher bidders.

tahukan Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 (edited) I'm aware of a replica you can order of a 14k gold Hau on shapeways, although i'm afraid it's not that cheap and well not official meaning it doesn't have the product code that are on the Mata masks but if you really want one that's how. -Tahukan Edited January 23, 2015 by Tahukan Of Bara Magna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can pass it off as as a legit 14k Hau that they gave out on Ebay for $6,000+ and make a large profit margin.

lessovikk4 Posted January 24, 2015 Author Share Posted January 24, 2015 Actually gold goes for 50$ per gram so if calculated the cubic cm of the mask with water displacement and factored grams to cubic cm you would see if that mask was worth buying, melting, and re selling. I will do some math and get back to you. Quote IF YOU WISH TO MAKE A DEAL FOR SOMETHING OR KNOW OF SOMEONE SELLING A GOLD HAU PLEASE PM ME Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jobber Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 (edited) Based on this https://www.shapeways.com/product/5WJNQCHSC/hau?li=search-results-2&optionId=43159972 it'll run ya' about 2,000$ for 14k gold. So if you can sell a 14k gold Hau on Ebay for around 7,000$ (that's a rough estimate and maximum price anyone should pay for it, since there was only 30 made) you'd make enough net gain to repeat the sneaky process of getting duplicate 14k Hau's from Shapeway's at least a few times before anyone catches on.Btw, I don't recommend anyone attempting this not because it's illegal, but because you can get sued by the buyer(s) for selling a replica of the original; an extremely rare Hau, that they thought they were getting.

Mask collector Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 Lol, the best part is, anyone who knows what the legit SGH looks like, they'll know that it is a fake right away.

Letagi Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 (edited) MC is right, the real SGH looks different from any of those. The one made of rose gold is the best approximation. The SGH also had two holes drilled in the sides with a chain running through them and came in a velvet case. I suppose all that could be faked, but does anyone on here really have questionable enough morals to go through with that? -Letagi Edit: Oh, and there's no way you could do it more than once. What are the chances of one person selling two SGHs one after the other? Zero, since nobody owns more than one. Seriously, nobody would fall for any of this. The only people who would spend several thousand dollars on an SGH are the same people who would be able to tell a fake at a glance.

lessovikk4 Posted January 24, 2015 Author Share Posted January 24, 2015 I wouldn't be sneaky like that anyway, but if it is truly 2000$ in gold and I buy it for 1000$ than I gain 1000$ toward actually acquiring one!

Letagi Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 I don't see how a fake SGH could be sold for any less than the value of the gold. The gold has to be bought in order to make the mask. No one would sell them for less than what they cost to make. -Letagi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may be that they had excess gold and rounded the price based on the fraction they thought it was but the point is they are selling for less than value but you do raise a good point it might not be 14k or even gold, thank you Quote IF YOU WISH TO MAKE A DEAL FOR SOMETHING OR KNOW OF SOMEONE SELLING A GOLD HAU PLEASE PM ME Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJH Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 I have one of the 14K Gold Kanohi Hau Mask and am looking to sell it. I won it in a contest when I was a child and it's just been sitting in a safe since then. I would really like to get it into the hands of a collector who will appreciate it.
