The prop is accompanied by its original custom wooden hinge-lidded case with fitted styrofoam interior.
Here is the complete description from Heritage Auction:
More items are included along with the rifle, but I don’t think that’s going to make it any easier to come up with a quarter of a million dollars. Though some super fans like Brad O’Neill have amassed over $500,000 in Star Trek collectibles, it’s rare for one fan to spend so much for one item.Īs for who determines the price of these items when they go up for auction, we don’t know, and while this 55-year-old prop is definitely something any fan would want to add to their collection, it’s going to be outside the realm of possibility for most of us. With a starting bid of $250,000, this original prop is out of most fans’ budget.
The Star Trek Phaser Rifle is priced exorbitantly high for most fans
