Who wouldn't want the prestigious BDO world trophy, an event legends like Darryl Fitton have won

You'd research it first surely.

As recently as 2003, the trophy in use is an older smooth metal one (sorry Bob):

I think the one being auctioned only came into use in 2004 (below). Anyone thinking that Bristow and the lads had their hands on it is much mistaken. Not sure about the base though.

Well yes, but that trophy is currently going for over 5 times more than the Masters trophy, which IS the original. Just seems out of whack.

Would bank on the fact not everyone realises its not the original.

EDIT - its only 4 times more now.

Well, yes.

Most of the trophies listed have no significance whatsoever, mind. The fact the World Trophy one is likely to go for low to mid 4 figures is insane.

A disgrace. Where were all the flush mushrooms (flushrooms) when the BDO needed them?

Genuine question.

In hindsight when do you think the BDO should have downscaled and stuck to running just smaller comps and Lakeside annually?

Big Worm did travel around the country to see their events in fairness.
