We take a look at what's hot, and what's not in the world of E-Bay and On-Line auctioning. Anyone interested in the 1933 Arsenal game is in for a real treat....

^{Item Title - Arsenal v Walsall FA Cup 3rd round 1933 TICKET}

^{Item Number - 8758117651}

^{Item Link - EBAY}

^{Seller - pauliku ( 5835)}

 

^{No Walsall fan needs to be told the significance of this game. It's gone down in Walsall Footballing folklore as the greatest Cup Tie of all time.}

^{A ticket from that game is now up for auction on E-Bay.} 

^{Current bidding situation}

^{At  4pm on the 30th of January the highest bid is £3.80 There are still 6 days to run.}  

^{Potential Value}

^{This item is unique so it's hard to gauge. As a quick pointer. World Cup ticket stubs from 1966 (Group Games) go for about £50. Ticket stubs from big Arsenal games in the 70s and 80s are fetching around £15-£20, At the lower end of the market, a used stub from the Barry Fry testimonial in the Summer will cost about £7.50. We've e-mailed one or two so called experts to get more info.} 

^{Adding Value}

^{If you have an original 1933 programme, then this item is a must have. It will increase the value of both items. Most serious collectors like to have things like this which double up.} 

^{Possible Problems}

^{The condition of the ticket isn't all that good. If you were looking to sell it on, we'd recommend that you find out just what a serious bidder would be willing to pay for such a poorly preserved item.}

^{The bidding frenzy}

^{It looks like this could be a very popular item. Walsall and Arsenal  have some serious collectors amongst there ranks. If this is as valuable as we suspect, it could get frenzied and serious. There's already a keen Arsenal bidder involved in the process. The significance of the game could also mean that collectors from outside the two clubs also take an interest.}
