Do they take us for fools?! They have replicators in Star Trek so these props and costumes are worthless!

Even so, I'm surprised there are no Starfleet phasers, tricom badges, and the like.

Star Trek 17: The Search For More Money

I have no idea how much it costs to make one of these props, but if the estimated values is between $5,000 - $10,000 - this doesn't really sound like an auction as in "my grandmother died and I need to liquidate everything", rather "hey, let's make a quick buck and fleece fans of the show of their disposable income". (eyeroll)

It's an auction. The price is what people are willing to pay. Current bids on many items are still only $100.

Unrelated, how does one search for, say, "prosthetic Klingon boobs" without it ending up on one's search history?

By "one" I mean "certainly not me".

Tragically, I'm pretty sure that particular piece of memorabilia was included in a previous auction. I'm not prepared to go out of my way to find proof, though.

Sorry, all my money exists 1,000 years in the future and Burnham is the only being in existence with the PIN

Tragically indeed! I hope they found a home in a particularly nerdcentric sex dungeon.
