I was wondering if any of you Ebay trackers know what the Gold Golden Gate is going for? I looked on Ebay and no one has sold one recently.

There was two on ebay during the winter.
one was close to $500 and the other was around $550. This is the price that I and a few other collectors predicted back when it first came out.

If my memory serves me correctly, there was one for sale awhile back at the New Marketplace. I think the asking price was at retail or close to it. I don't know if it was sold or not.

Except for the initial hype, I think many collectors lost interest in the GGB sooner than expected. I don't think there are a lot of bridge collectors out there. Lighthouse collectors yes, bridge collectors no.

A local gift shop had one for sale at retail ($250.00) the last time I was there. That was a couple weeks ago. I don't know if they still have it.

Yes
You are right Bob.
A GGGB was for sale for retail on this forum.
A mater of fact it was for sale right after the ones on ebay were going for twice as much.
I was surprised and figured that the seller didn't follow ebay and thought since Harbour Lights have been selling low that he would just sell it for a price that he knew he could get for it.
I agree with you Bob that collectors are probably not big on collecting Bridges. But I disagree when it comes to the Golden Golden Gate Bridge. It follows into an other collectable category. The extremely rare gold plated pewter figurines by Harbour Light.
As collectors win the gold plated event and regional pieces they probably will also want to collect as many of the Gold plated pieces as they can. The GGGB is the most reasonable and easiest to find. At least that was my thinking.

I feel that the value of the GGGB is a strong $450 to $550
Yes it doesn't surprise me that a store still has one for retail. I talked to a collector that acquired a low two digit California made, Old Point Loma with Brown Box from a dealer just three years ago.

Since it appears these are still available from Lighthouse Depot http://www.lighthousedepot.com/Order.cfm?orderitem=42663G, I'd say the value is about $249.95 right now.
