Franklin Sugar Ray Leonard bag on eBay

Leonard had an endorsement deal with Franklin that lasted about a decade, from about 1980 that was still in effect in 1989. When he retired for the last time sales of his endorsed items dropped dramatically and the contract was not renewed. These items are collectible in the sense that there is a much narrower window than the Ali deal with Everlast
I've not owned or hit on a Franklin bag, so I can't comment on the quality of them (yeah I know, but from what I saw of them at the time I wasn't all that impressed) Maybe I'll consider this one, maybe not. They show up on eBay fairly frequently.

If it hasn't been already, eBay does an automatic relisting if an item doesn't sell the first time listed. The shipping and handling price is almost as much as they're asking for the bag. A lot of people overprice that as eBay can't take a percentage of handling and shipping charges

That was the period of time when Korea had taken over the production of lesser expensive products that had previously been made in Japan. They actually made some pretty good stuff, but their reign was short lived once China started dealing with the Western world again.

As far as my interest in it, I have three long neck bags now, two Everlast 4207's and a Goldsmith MacGregor, and they are all slow, the Everlasts more so than the Goldsmith. From a collectable standpoint, the jury is still out on that.
