Hi Jimmy, love your work and this website, it's sooo cool.
I have an authentic KISS bag from 1980 that is extremely rare, so I'm told (I believe they made a limited run for an Australian tour). It has Aucoin management mentioned under the Kiss logo. It's in surprisingly good condition for being 45 years old (45 YEARS..how time flies). I googled & found that one sold for about $700 a few years ago and was wondering if that was in fact real as I cant find any record of it being sold. There is also one on Ebay and the seller is asking major $$$.
Anyway, I was hoping to get an appraisal from you fine people who have amazing taste.
have a look at the pics and let me know your thoughts.

Very cool! I couldn't find any confirmed sales on eBay for in the last three years - and didn't have much luck on WorthPoint - scout around on Worthpoint and see if you can spot it there.

I did find quite a few KISS sleeping backs that were selling in the $500 range.

KISS is a tricky one since he put his logo on everything, the inventory of stuff is overwhelming, but seems to be on the rare side. Where did you spot it online?

Hi Jimmy,

Thanks for that. I'll keep looking around. I found one sale from this site: https://www.popsike.com/RARE-KISS-AUSSI ... 11507.html.
I actually own the one I posted. I got it from a garage sale see in Australia.
\Anyway, I'll keep searching.

Hey Jimmy,
Sorry for the late response but I just wanted to update you.
I eventually sold it for $1125.00 a few of months ago to a cool dude in Australia.
Very happy about it!
