On eBay just posted is a presentation from STS 41-D which is signed by Judy Resnik that includes a flown flag and patch. I am not the seller, but the seller is the person I bought a Hubble model from so I thought I would bring this to everyone's attention as the opening bid is only $350. |

This presentation has been for sale for a while now with previous starting bids at $500. Its a nice piece. |

Yes, I had actually suggested that opening price a while back as I felt that a price of $500-$650 would be the range that this would sell for. Looks like that first assessment was somewhat "sporty". |

I have an identical presentation except it is signed by the entire crew. I saw another presentation identical to mine and this one except it was signed just by Steve Hawley.Maybe the presentations were all signed differently depending on where it went. |

I was going to bid the first couple of times it was offered, but felt that $500 was a little high, but the latest third go around... well I hope whoever won will enjoy it and hopefully they paid. Because it has Resnick signature doesn't make it the holy grail... but who knows. |

I completely agree with you. Anyhow, by looking at feedback left by the seller, it appears that the presentation has been won by a well known hard bidder and cS'er too, who does not mind at all paying big money to get what he is looking for. That might explain the extremely high winning bid. At least, it went to someone who will enjoy for sure what he paid for. |
