ha HAAAA!

I love it when Canada Post wakes me up in the mornings - it can only mean... EBAY!

For years I've had a complete set of the Sunoco GB2 glasses, which were particular to here in Canada. There were promotional signage Sunoco's had for the cups (Sunoco is/was a gas station chain - you got the cup with a fill up), but those are long gone. Almost as rare, are the paper inserts that were in each glass - and I finally got one! Whooo!

Wow very cool !

I still have not these glasses GB2...

[Ectofiend666]

I have that ...I meant to scan it before packing it up with the glasswares but I forgot to ...

if i had known how rare these were i had 12 of them floating around after i bought a shit ton of the glasses ida chucked them on ebay.

The glasses were often used by people, so the inserts were tossed, making them harder to find than the glasses themselves. I've only ever seen the one. Fiend has one - and by the sounds of it, you had the other 12 still left in the world. :p

Collectibles are always worth more when they have all the pieces they came with - packaging, inserts, instruction manuals, sticker sheets, etc.

Nice. From now on, I'm never throwing anything away, just in case it's worth something someday.

Were these glasses exclusive to Canada?

[castewar]

That's how I always understood it - the insert is French on the other side. But Sunoco isn't a Canadian company, it's an American one, so it's very possible they were sold in the US too - I've just never heard of it. People with or selling the glasses always talk about having picked them up in the Eastern provinces of Canada in 1989.

[The Stiff]

Ah, yes, the tell-tale sign of a Canadian collectible; English and French!

Are you going to frame this insert, and put it on the shelf where you display all your cool GB glassware?

[Ron Daniels]

I've got five

[joeghostbuster]

I just looked on ebay for these, there are only 2, the slimer bus driver and the skinny nunzio ghost - my nephew was just asking me the other day if they ever made ghostbusters glasses, but I didnt know about these so I told him no...

[Belmont78]

I hope they make some serious merchandise for the third movie if it ever gets made.

[Dr_Rob_Cassidy]

I have a full set bar Jogger Ghost, which my Nana broke. Never found it on its own, though I don't exactly look for it that regularly, either

[BustMe]

I am new here. I was thrilled to find this site, I didn't know about this great GB fan site!

I have the Sunoco glasses too, and the insert!

I am happy to hear that they are loved by others as well. I will have to let them go sometime sooner than later though, as we are downsizing.

I look forward to looking around this ghostbusting site to see what I've been missing!

[windycitywarrior71]

the sets and individual glasses pop up on ebay pretty frequently actually, but some stick a buy it now for like 100.00 so they never sell.

[BustMe]

Thanks for the info. When I get a chance I'll check it out. But, yes, $100 is way too much!! I know that old coke glasses only sell for $5 (a few months back, anyway)....which I thought would be much more than that. Of course I prefer the GB glasses for sure (of course LOL) but not for that kind of $$.

I'm curious as to how much the insert is though.

[S&D]

I was going through an old box the other day and found a Nunzio Scoleri glass and 3 of the Sunoco advertising sheets.
What luck.
