We have kinfolk there, wonder if it's for sale?I saw this Blackhawk Porto-Power setup at an estate sale today in Independence, MO (Kansas City area). It was buried back in the shop area, I didn't see where they had even priced it. Tomorrow is the last day of the sale, so I'm sure it could be bought pretty fairly if you are in the area. Its more than I care to mess with size and weight wise. They do have a skid steer on site that may help in loading out.

I'm sure it is, everything was for sale... I didn't see a "Sold" sign on it... the shop was piled full of stuff, they didn't bother putting a price on most of it. Better hurry, probably going in the roll-off after tomorrow if it doesn't sell. If you are serious, I'd give the estate company a call or text and inquire about it.

Holy moly. Has the pre war Blackhawk market really gone to this level of ridiculousness or is this just a seller who is dreaming for a big pay day?

After eBay fees and shipping, seller only gets $10,82 by my calculations and from my experience.Holy moly. Has the pre war Blackhawk market really gone to this level of ridiculousness or is this just a seller who is dreaming for a big pay day?

Dude that’s crazy money. Man, we thought the totem pole was big money but this is nuts. Seller is going to be sitting on this for a while. I would love to see what they used for comps when figuring out a listing priceHoly moly.

That pictures shows a $8500 offer, they should take it.

That offer was sent to me. He's off by about 95% though. I'd go 200 bucks on that thing, tops. lol
Ok, I'm tracking now.

That will be a feel good for me if he can get it sold for anything close to that.
How many of these boards do we know of???

I just looked it up and it is here close by me and I know the seller. All his stuff is way over priced and he sells a lot to Australia
As a side note I bought mine back in 2019 for $305 including the shipping

The only one I have stumbled over in person was the Chevrolet version that Twertsy had in his tool temple. You may be the one who bought that board from him when he liquidated his collection. I know that I hauled a bunch of Blackhawk stuff out of there around that same time period.That will be a feel good for me if he can get it sold for anything close to that.

Not me. I was just a side line watcher. It sold for around the 'buy it now' price that I have seen them listed at for a while.

They should be more rare then those without lever, right? Anyway, I got myself a 9811 and thats fine.

Rarity hasn't really caused a price spike on the lever version. I have 3 of them in my merchandiser, two of which have the lever. They were not that hard to find.

They are a bit hard to find in working condition. They discontinued the early lever version because of a high failure rate.

Most of your list comes up for sale regularly. Your biggest problem will be finding one of those 9004 release tools. They are like hens teeth these days.
I've looked through my trade pile but I don't have any of these. The majority of my trading stuff is 7/16th nugget stuff.

I was about to say that all the Blackhawk GJers within an hour's drive of Eureka, CA are muttering to themselves, "I wish this frackin' 930dreamer guy would stop tipping everyone else off to every bomb box he finds!", until I saw the super ambitious price tag. 
My limit is garage sale prices. But there's the port o power selection with this one.
