I have a few of them:

I bought the white pick from Alec John Such from Ebay, I have also a few from Richie, they were handed out at the Giants shows in 2001 and also at the Vienna show in 2001.

You just have to get really lucky and catch one during the concert, or try to ask the road or tour manager for some... it worked for me twice already.
Or just go buy them at Ebay, but they cost a lot of money.....

as far as i'm concerned they have to be "used" to be worth something

Some people are nuts and pay alot of money for picks at ebay but I have seen that if you are patient and don't want a pick right after a tour you can get some quite cheap.

I don't know if they are more worth if they are used. I mean how will you know that the pick was used by Richie? Nobody can proof this when he sells them. I heard it the other way around. Unused picks would be more worth than used picks. But I don't know. I wouldn't sell my picks so I don't care.

i know what you mean...

i know when a plectrum is used because it is handed to me in person... not by Richie...

but i've been handed plectrums from roger glover, steve morse, uli jon roth, glenn hughes, doug aldrich...

I have three, These Days with JB, Crush with Jon Bon Jovi (I got it from Mike, can't remember lis last name tho, but he's in the road crew) and also Richie's Crush plectra that I got from him in Turku 2000. It's the most valuable to me since Richie played with it.

I hope that won't happen to you at this tour.

I guess I should keep my eyes open this year, maybe I'm lucky.

that being said i wouldn't go out of my way to try to get one... it means nothing to me to buy one off ebay for example unless i know it was played by richie, or was given to me from him or the road crew etc...
