Brawndo Posted August 27, 2020 Report Posted August 27, 2020 (edited) The Bobbleheads that were to be given out at Fan Appreciation Night are available for order through ShopOneBuffalo.com for 5 dollars a piece. Edited September 7, 2020 by Brawndo Quote
Shmuffalo Posted August 27, 2020 Report Posted August 27, 2020 Darn, and I was supposed to be in town today. If anyone gets an extra, would you mind sending a PM? I'll gladly pay postage plus costs for your troubles. Perreault was my dad's favorite player, and have a small display with the aud brick, signed French connection, and our last game ticket, and pic... think it would be a nice touch. 1 Quote

PerreaultForever Posted August 27, 2020 Report Posted August 27, 2020 These are the bobble heads that were supposed to be GIVEN AWAY right? Selling them, even cheap, seems cheesy. Should have been given away with some sort of other promotion or proceeds to Buffalo food banks or something like that. Quote
Zamboni Posted August 27, 2020 Report Posted August 27, 2020 The Bobbleheads WERE given to STH‘S . I went and got mine the first day they were available. Even posted a pic here in another thread. Obviously not all the STH‘S took advantage of that. So the ones they have left, are being sold. Cheaply. First come first serve. Oh the horror ... 1 Quote

Not exactly. The STHers that were promised the bobbleheads will recieve them when the Sabres can start playing again. These were "extras" they had. Quote
Zamboni Posted August 28, 2020 Report Posted August 28, 2020 Not exactly. I already “received” mine along with thousands of other STH’ers. We did not wait until the Sabres “can start playing again”. You are right in that ... If I can correct a prior thought .... yes, those that did not pick them up, Will have the opportunity to get them once the season starts again. They will not be mailed(sent). A STH’er will have to pick it up in person. I’m sure if a STH’er called to make individual arrangements to get it mailed to them, I’m sure they would accommodate the few who need that service. If you’d like to talk to Jonathan down at account services, he can tell you what he told me when I picked mine up 2 weeks ago. Bottom line, I know the bobble heads were “DONATED” by the Sabres and are being sold for $5.00 to benefit Roswell Park. So Sabres ARE not profiting from those sales. Glad they did that. Quote

"Promised," as in the people that couldn't get to the rink during the 1 week they were made available but were told they would still receive them WILL actually receive them. You'd said these bobbleheads were ones that STHers had passed on. That isn't the case. And per the original e-mail (and subsequent conversation with MY rep) they will be given to STHers whenever play finally resumes. The bobbleheads that they sold today were excess beyond what they'd reserved for STHers that couldn't pick them up. Quote
Eleven Posted August 28, 2020 Report Posted August 28, 2020 I am sorry/not sorry that I missed this. It would have been fun to have one, but, on the other hand, I have too much stuff as it is. Indeed, I have a Hasek sweater number retirement ceremony banner, and it just hangs off of a bookshelf. I don't really need this. Someone make a case for it in a PM and have it. Quote

I have always tried to limit crap possessions, but now that I'm getting ready to move it has become evident I have entirely too much ***** that I absolutely don't need. I'm going to donate the stuff that somebody else will consider useful to Habitat for Humanity. The rest is going into the trash or recycling bins. Quote

I stand by my other statements however. Quote

Pimlach Posted August 28, 2020 Report Posted August 28, 2020 I’m 750 miles away. Maybe I can get one of my brothers on this. I would like one. Gilbert replaced Bobby Orr as my favorite hockey player the first time I saw him play for us. 1 Quote

I figured there would be a LOT of them on sale on eBay for much higher than the $5. Too bad there wasn’t a way to facilitate selling them to people who actually wanted to buy one for $5 and keep it.
