Is this the Sims Kamikaze or a true Sims Hosoi (where it actually says "Hosoi" on it)?

That article you saw had some pretty bad estimates on values. Some way too high (like the Kryto Godoy � sorry Henrik), and several too low. A mint Hosoi would go over $1000. That board sold like hot cakes, which would make you think that there are a lot available, but great boards (Roskopp 1 for instance) didn't stay on the shelves for years � they got thrashed like a good board should. The Hosoi is a major classic. At auction I would expect at least $1,500!

Thanks for the info...that really helps. I was figuring that I would have to pay probably up to $2,000.

I haven't seen one of these in anyone's collection to date (does anyone have one?).

I am guessing between $1500-2500 due to the age, scarcity, and the fact that it is his first pro model.

Check out http://www.skateboardpimp.com � Mike has a mint Sims Hosoi. I'd say at least $2000...

Thanks Blair!

Use this address:
http://www.skateboardpimp.com

Otherwise the period at the end throws it off into an ugly installer.

Sweet collection -I always loved that Sims longboard.

I'm firewalled from the skateboardpimp (the ol' "angelfire"wall...)

Anyone care to send me a picture?
