There is one of these for sale on Ebay for $135.00, except its a monkey smoking a cigar, rather than this guy. The bottom of the tray says "made in occupied japan" Patent #95214. Is $135.00 a fair price for this piece? It does have some paint worn off but overall seems in good condition. Thanks!!

whoops, i guess i did word it kind of confusing. I'm looking to sell it.

Are there any bids on the ebay listing ?? Or is that just asking price ??

personally speaking..i think if you list this on ebay with a start price of $135.....don,t hold your breath...on it selling...cos you will be waiting a long time....just because there,a similar one albeit a monkey..at $135...does,nt mean this is worth that..or more....it all depends on how much of your corn that this item has already eaten..

maybe start the bidding at $100.00?

I still think thats a bit high...i sell quite frequently on ebay...and often start at 99p...thats a $1.50...to you....and..my items nearly always make me a profit..as the bidders dictate...but if its not going to reach whats acceptable to you, you can always pull it before the end....

Go to that listing you saw and then pull up completed sales !! That will tell what they actually sold for !! That start price is way above way I would expect it to be !! Remember you can ask whatever you want for an item,,,doesn`t mean you will get it !!

You'll find three here in the first bit, all ebay UK......one exactly the same as yours. All with an starting bid of 11.99 pounds (will let wullie translate that into $$). All ended without any bids
