Did I miss a memo somewhere, or did I fail to notice a story on /. about the one and only CAPTAIN'S CHAIR from the freakin' ENTERPRISE (...no bloody A, B, C or D) being up for auction on eBay? To be had, no doubt for about the amount of a small-to-mid-sized suburban home in the NE USofA." bluethundr continues on his 12-step program below.

bluethundr continues: "And while we're at it. I admit it. I am an Okudagram collector. I go nuts and drain my bank account every time I see one of the control panels from the Enterprise (which I believe to be authentic and usually TNG's D, as that's all my bankroll will allow) on eBay and my home server room looks like a federation outpost. If you weren't aware, the Okudagrams from the show come in the form of black-tinted plexi that has a patterned film applied to it with photographic gels to add color and vellum affixed to said plexi with black masking tape. The idea is to backlight them for the effect they achieved on the sets of lighted control panels. Collecting these things, you get a feeling for what's authentic hollywood material and what's a cheap fanboy knockoff. I can't help but wonder if I am the only /.er to engage in this eccentric hobby... By the way, several control panels from the 1701 (including Spock's Science Station computer!) as well as an array of other authentic stuff from the 60s is also to be had for a (very) tidy sum on "the world's online marketplace"....By the way, I am trying to curb this habit of mine, hence this submission. :-|"

    This is pretty cool, although I can think of a number of other things I would prefer to use the minimum $80,000 bid on.

    I wonder about that stain on the base. Looks like coffee. It would be interesting if that was the result of an accident (on set, or after the chair was given to the collector), or was caused by Captain Kirk holding a drink which was dropped due to an incoming photon torpedo. :^D
    • I was actually thinking that the stain came from Kirk pissing himself when he saw the Klingons coming.
    • It would be pretty easy to knock up your own version of the chair with some plywood, vinyl seat cloth, a pot of grey paint and some repro car dashboard switches from the 1960s.

      Of course you would know it was fake and you could even tell your friends it was fake but they would all think it was really genuine (unless you let them see you build it) and you were really telling lies to avoid the house being targetted by burglars.

      Main reason not to do so of course is the seat looks uncomfy as heck.

      I have a bunch of 'Jackson Pollocks' , a 'Rothko' and a Mondrian on my walls. If they were genuine they would be worth several million, all they cost me were a few hundred dollars for the canvas, paint and a couple of art books.

    • Sorry, a coffee stain would gradually turn black over time-- I'm banking on 'Tribble-Piss' as the actual culprit.

      Or, it could have been during Spock's 'redneck period' where he took up spitting tabacky and was known for soiling several areas of the Enterprise before the writers turned the idea off. Imagine the nerve of some vulcan scratching his balls while giving the "live long and prosper" sign.

  • I thought $80,000 starting bid was bad, but look, Ebay getting an 18% premium of the selling price is even more outrageous.

    That makes the min price for the chair $94,400.

  • I hate to say it, but your statement that Star Trek is no longer geeky is actually somewhat true. There is a growing trend amoung 15 to 25 year old hicks who are into country music to watch ST:TNG episodes, and said market has been eagerly captured by TNN, who have rebranded themselves as the "New" TNN. It seems now that whenever there isn't anything good on, I come crawling back to the old episodes that got me through so many lonely nights in junior high... when all the normal, "popular" people were off wasting there money at the movies and at the mall. Fortunately, having not wasted my money on such silly things, I have enough money to buy such an item... oh wait... I forgot... I didn't save it, I bought RAM instead. :(

    • There is a growing trend amoung 15 to 25 year old hicks who are into country music to watch ST:TNG episodes,

      There are worse things "15 to 25 year old hicks" could watch than a show that teaches them some degree of tolerance and responsibility.

    • I'm afraid I've noticed the same thing. Even before TNN started showing TNG I was noticing a large number of red necks and hicks saying things like "Ah shore lahk that thar Star Trek show!" with a big grin missing half a dozen teeth.
      Of course, I used to be glued to the TV, whenever Star Trek was on, back in the 70s when I was in elementary school.
    • Growing trend? Source, please.

      TNN dropped the "Nashville Network" from its name, and is re-inventing itself as a "normal" cable channel. Most likely due to declining ratings. How better to get an instant leg up than to purchase a series guaranteed to bring the kind of viewers your station wants? While they watch Star Trek: The Political Correctness, endless advertising for other TNN programming is constantly broadcast. TNN is operated by MTV Networks, a division of, wait for it...Viacom

      TNG isn't science fiction at all...it's a drama, set on a starship. The series is about the interactions between people and cultures. The writers merely put [TECH] when something is required to be explained, and someone else comes up with the technobabble later. They never discuss science-y, Tom Clancyish things like the exact capabilites of the ship's sensors or weapons. How many photon torpedoes does it take to get to the chewy candy center of a Romulan warbird? The world may never know.

    In the early 1990's I was involved in a Star Trek club here in England (that'll be Wakefield Starfleet, affiliated with the NSFA). I spent my pocket money, and subsequently my Saturday-job money, on Trek books and memorabilia. It was good back then because we hadn't been overloaded with books, comics, magazines, figurines, playsets, videos, special-edition videos, DVDs, CDs, blah blah blah blah blah. I went to the occasional convention in the UK as funds would allow, and enjoyed watching episodes of Classic and Next Gen.

    As time went on I went to University and lost interest around the time of Deep Space Nine, when Berman took over and made it into a 'franchise'. I think I've seen a total of 10 episodes of Voyager, but it didn't really 'inspire' me. Sure, the films give me a bit of a 'buzz' - I've bought them on DVD - but that was about it.

    Now, some 10 years later, I'm moving house and find all my old stuff - the uniforms I made, the books, etc. So I decide to eBay the books (a collection of around 100 Trek books, including original 1960's editions) and it goes for £50. That's about $75 in your money. Pathetic, isn't it? I see the huge amount of Trek crap on eBay, and there's lots of people selling it but nobody really buying it.

    Now I'm not even bothering with the rest of the stuff like the comics, etc. because the hassle of me shipping them to a buyer outweighs the benefit of the money in my bank account - may as well just stuff them in the attic and wait until someone comes along who might want them.

    I can't seem to find any decent conventions or clubs in the UK either - all the clubs which sprang up (anyone remember Ten Forward, or the National Starfleet Alliance?) have long since disappeared.

    Perhaps we've all just grown up. Or the constant milking of the 'franchise' left us all with sour tastes in the mouth. Me, I'm married with a kid now and enjoy watching Enterprise with my wife, and still I can't bring myself to throw out the old uniforms. They'll do for a fancy dress party I suppose ;)

    • "So I decide to eBay the books...and it goes for £50. That's about $75 in your money. ...lots of people selling it but nobody really buying it."

      You know you're a real Star Trek fanatic when you buy your memorabilia from yourself.

      Oooh, did you get to see the one where they almost got off the island?? [voyager.gilligans.island]

    • Books never seem to do well on eBay, from the sellers point of view.
      Like you, I decided to unload a bunch of my old Star Trek stuff that I'd gotten way back in the 1970s.
      It was about 2 years ago and went something like:
      Phaser Battle (electronic game) : $75
      Bridge Play Set : $50
      Large Action Figures (10" or so) : $15-30 each
      About 10 years ago I sold issues 1-10 of the Gold Key Star Trek comics but I forget now what I got for them...close to $100 for the first one and it went down from there. They weren't in the best of shape or I'm sure I'd have gotten more.
    • I think the moment everything started to cost an arm and a leg started the downturn with me that and teh fact our local affliate moved teh shows arouns like every week because we were nto a fulltime UPN affiliate. Also, it seems, to me they are not bringing new shows/stuff out as often as they used to. Enterprise is a good show, but the should have continued into the future (say where the TIme Ship in Voyager came from). I would have liked to see the Domnion War finish and a few other things like that. I also find it funny the Figures I used to pay 6 bucks for I can get at Big Lots for 2.99. Also our local "Sci-FI" Convention does more stuff about fantasy (dragons and crap) then hard science sci-fi (as goofy as soem of it is, Star Trek is what I consider hard Sci Fi along with Star Wars....b5 is alittle too mistifying for me).

    • This is exactly the type of thing the Smithsonian needs and wants for their media section. There was a lot of interesting TV stuff when I went there, and I'm sure this would be a hell of a nice addition. Question is, does the Smithsonian have $100000 for a chair? Aren't they funded by tax dollars? myria ^_^
    • Yes I agree. Infact I think Paramount shouldn't have thrown or given away the whole set, but donated it to the Smithsonian. Star Trek is one thing that inspires many people to do things for equal rights, space exploration, and a whole host of other things. I think it's a crime that most of whats left is a single chair if they pitched the whole set or gave it away.

      I'd like to be able to go to a museum and show any kids I have in the future that chair. They'll look at me like I'm crazy because of the latest Star Trek that looks super real, but it's nice to say, "This is where it all began."

        Look, I love ST:TOS too and I grew up wanting to be Kirk or Spock, but let's face facts: When Star Trek went off the air in 1969, it was just this moderately-successful TV show, sailing into the sunset after a respectable but not record-breaking three seasons. It wasn't thought to be a phenomenon, a classic, or a national treasure. Trek occupies a place, now, in the culture not due to the show itself but due to the die-hard, never-give-up, even obsessive nature of its fan base durng the 1970s and (less so) 1980s, who kept the show alive through ways essentially unheard-of before (comics, conventions, fanfic).


        No one -- no one -- in 1969 knew this stuff would be important. It's unreasonable to expect them to have saved it.

    • When I was in DC, in 92 or so, the Smithsonian ran a Star Trek Exhibit.


      I distinctly recall the chair being in it.

    • It is not inconcievable that there were more than one "Captain's Chair". Considering the number of practical jokes that were played on various cast members, like Shatner...it seems that he had an ongoing weight-gain problem as the average season went on...and they would purposely take camera angles to emphesize this...it wouldn't suprise me that they once made a captain's chair that was slightly smaller as a practical joke.

      Back in 1992, the Smithsoniam, in fact, had a Star Trek exhibit. Among other things, they had the origial navigation panel (the one Sulu would sit at). It was in pretty bad condition; looking at it live, it looked a lot more cheaply built than it ever did seeing it on the show.

      I don't remember seeing the captain's chair at the exhibit.

      "Everyone assumes that if you are into computers, you are into all things trek. It was a bad, dumb show."

      I'm curious what you consider to be a good show, then. I seriously think you're judging ST for the wrong reasons.

      The reason that Trek is popular among geeks is that the depicted world of the future is more pleasing to live in if you're a geek.

      For example: You can tell the computer "go find me some porn I like!" and boom, you'll get porn you like. Today, we haveta scour the web manually for that. That sucks.

      Another example: I want a burger and fries right now. But *gasp* I have to walk for 15 minutes to do that! That sucks! In Star Trek, you'd walk up to your replicator, say "Burger and fries, Burgerville style." And boom, you have a burger and fries, Burgerville style.

      Here's yet another example: I have to walk 3/4ths of a mile to work every day. This sucks! Well, in Star Trek, I could just say "Beam me up!".

      One more example: Isn't it a pain in the butt to get a phone number of some chick? Face it: Most chicks don't wanna talk about computers, and none of them are impressed if you're running Linux. (Actually, you lose points for that, as a woman I dated pointed out.) Well, fear no more! In the Star Trek universe, you could just say "Wiggam to Portman, c'mon girl, my tricorder says that your hair is not in need of washing!" You couldn't do that today!

      As you can see, the world of Star Trek is quite appealing and serves as an acceptable template for the future. Geeks have a lot to be happy about when the world churns out one more Trek-like device.

    • > Put him in a scene. I know you can do it.

      I have a vague memory of reading somewhere that just about every writer then immediately did a "Wesley" script, but then was some dispute invoving the writers, so instead of spreading the Wesley scripts over a while they used them all close together because that was all that was available, and that overuse is where the alt.ensign.wesley.die.die.die type backlash started.

      Personally I found Wesley a somewhat irritating character, but didn't think that was the actor's fault. It's good to find out Wil is actually a pretty cool guy, (or has one amazing PR setup faking his website etc. :-) ).

      Changing universes, I briefly worked with someone who had an original Millennium Falcon model because he'd worked on special effects for the film. That was cool.

    The old one is cheesy. They *all* have bad acting (with a few exceptions like Patrick Stewart). They all have bad writing.
    In Star Trek if somebody has a bump on his nose, or slightly different ears, but otherwise looks human, he's an alien. What's that about?
    I saw one episode of DS9 (the first), where Cisco had to teach an entity that lived outside of our time stream. If the thing is simultaneously at all points on our timeline, how can it learn? It should know now, what it knew 100000000 years ago, and will know 1000000000 year from now, because to it all three points are the same.
