Each week, the members of the Star Trek Prop, Costume & Auction Forum nominate and vote on what is the coolest item of that week. The winner gets the world famous "Cool Item of the Week" award!
I have fallen way behind on this, so I have a bunch of these to post. I will be doing one a day this week. This is for Week 71/72, which we listed together because of the overlap.
Week 71/72:
43 forum members voted and the Pup Probe from the DS9 episode "Forsaken" at $ 2,200 edged out the V'Ger Mind Meld Model.
There is always a lively debate about where the secondary market will land after the IAW auctions finish. The market is very soft right now, especially for character costumes, since there are 40-50 of each main character.
Screen Used Props is offering up a Tom Paris costume for $ 2,999, close to double what they have gone for on eBay through IAW lately. It hasn't sold since being listed last week.
While the listing doesn't say, the costume is displayed with rank pips and a comm badge.
