Earlier this year Doug Drexler, the Academy and Emmy Award winning make-up and special effects person for Star Trek and Battlestar Galactica, contacted me as he has an extensive collection of Star Trek props and set pieces that he wanted to sell. After winning an Academy Award for his amazing make-up work on Dick Tracy, Doug worked on Star Trek from the first year of Star Trek: The Next Generation, till the end of Enterprise. He started as a make up artist on TNG, and after three years moved to the art department, where he stayed for the rest of his Star Trek career. He then started working on Battlestar Galactica as the senior CGI artists and has won two Emmy Awards for his work (along with CGI Supervisor Gary Hutzel and their gang) the last two years.

here and read about him on
Memory Alpha here. You can read a bit of a Star Trek resume on
Startrek.com.
Doug has an AMAZING collection of Star Trek props, set pieces and graphics. Over 300 pieces in all and something for everyone! So here are the details...
I will start posting photos of the items Doug has. If you are interested, please email me at alec@propworx.com. Doug and I will start by selling items direct, but may wind up putting the items on eBay if there are too many people interested in a specific item in order to be fair. I think you all know I have a pretty good feel for the market and am a collector myself, so we want to be fair to everyone.
So if you see something you like, email me with an offer or call me to chat.

While this is the 86th week of auctions, It is titled Week 95 to be consistent with the Star Trek Auctions Archive.
Seven of Nine's Space Suit went very strong at $ 6,256. It had no helmet, but was complete other than that it seems. This space suit was introduced in First Contact and then used throughout Voyager. They are pretty cool. I think a Space Suit is top of the costume pyramid and so if you can get a good one, they are well worth it.
The TNG Professor Data from "All Good Things.." was a good deal at $ 1,025. This is such a memorable episode and so this costume is a good one and well priced. 
I got outbid on the Klingon Pain Stick at $ 1,247, which went for more than any of the previous ones did. This is a cool piece, and certainly worth the winning bid.
The TNG/Voyager style Engineering LCARS went for a strong $ 1,030. This was pretty non-descript, so I think that is high, but these are pretty popular and iconic in their style. 
85th week of IAW auctions (auctions ending October 3rd)
At $ 1,255, the Jadzia Dax Starfleet Uniform was a good deal. This is the rare jacketed version. Now I will say, I have seen Jadzia's jumpsuits, and they look great, but this is much scarcer. 
I liked the Enterprise Bridge Flight Stick and think it was a good deal at $ 576. You don't see one that often, and I would like to see screencaps to see if it was in fact one used in a Shuttlepod. 
Finally, the best deal in the props category was the rubber Cardassian Disruptor Rifle at $ 405. I paid twice that for mine about 4 months ago!
There were 81 items this week, almost all props. There were only two costumes and two costue accessories. Only 2 items topped $ 1,000, which is a reflection on the lower overall quality of the items. However, it was a good, broad selection, with some cool props and many good values.
The Klingon Mek'Leth with attached Borg Arm was pretty darn cool, and at $ 1,009 a pretty fair deal. IAW notes that "The mek’leth is not the one used by “Worf” in the scene but is included to complete the lot. " The arm is showing the typical signs of detrioration for these foam and latex props. I do like how IAW paired these two items up, because I think how you display something is always important. This will make a really cool and very recognizable display if you display this well. Contact Jeff at Screen Used Props and he will give you a discount on his very cool displays if you are a member of the Star Trek Prop Forum. 
The Xindi Hand Gun with Holster was a good buy at $ 848. I love these weapons as the paint job is so cool. The holsters look great as well. At this price, a great deal.
The 24th Century Molded Phaser and Tricorder Props was an excellent deal. At $ 607 it gave the winner two iconic props. Of course they were the molded foam background versions but cool none the less.

It is a "hero" arm with metal fittings in the front. Very cool. 
I think the price is a bit on the high side, buit then again you don't see these every day. Alec
Ed Miarecki, a long time prop maker and one of the guys who helped restore the original Enterprise TV filming miniature for the Smithsonian, sold one of his Star Trek VI Assault Phasers on eBay last week. It went for only $ 1,300!
