Hi All,
Streamlining my collection and the LJNs I'm afraid have to go. I have a full collection bar some of the accessories for the figures, all bar a few in good condition.
What do folks think would be a reasonable price to accept for the set?
Cheers all! |

Everyone has an opinion as to what "good" condition is. If they are pretty much mint, they will bring a lot more than some that have even small chips. Some like Honky Tonk Man, One Man Gang, Million Dollar Man, etc were different colors underneath and the paint on them tended to chip more easily. If these figures, along with the last series and Slaughter, are in the best shape, the higher it would be. Accessories would make it even more and sometimes they are worth more than the figure itself.
Before anyone tells him to check Ebay, it is not often that a full set comes up so there is likely nothing to check there in terms of past records of sales.
Do you have any photos showing the condition of the figures?

Thanks for the quick reply.
I'll try and get some photos done. The worst one condition wise is the white Tito Santana, has a chewed left foot and some bits missing on the face. I think the Warlord and Ax (Demolition) had their face pain touched up as well by the guy I brought them from.
Some are close to mint (Sgt. Slaughter), majority I'd class as good condition. Oh, and also a small handful of customs I did myself on some spares I had; not brilliant but look ok. |

Agreed with figurecollector. Also I've always found the best value is selling the set as individual pieces so that the commons don't waterdown the overall value (price per figure). Can always sell the commons in smaller lots, they seem to sell better that way and get better value.

Check sold items. Sell seperately. Damaged and touched up figures lose value obviously. Too bad those are Jakks belts, not LJN belts.

Can always sell the commons in smaller lots, they seem to sell better that way and get better value. Thanks. I agree to a certain point with you on selling them as singles for the most valuable ones, but you likely are going to end up with a garage full of Kirchners, Iron Sheik, Volkoff, etc that you will lucky to get $1 apiece for in a commons lot. I do not think you are watering anything down if you take a more valuable figure and pair it with 4 Kirchner level figures pricing it for perhaps $50 for the valuable one and $5 apiece for the others for a total of $70 or $75. If the valuable one is in good shape, the price will go up from there. That way, you ensure getting rid of them all, not leaving yourself with the least valuable ones. You have to make sure that the shipping price is accurate, though, as if you are off, it will kill any profit you stand to make. Make sure that you mention the ones that are repainted as there is a large difference in value in these to others. As Ruby said, the damaged ones do not have a lot of value. |

I added the Jakks belts to give the displayed collection a little something extra. There's an original black LJN championship belt in there and one original brown tag team belt.
I'd like the sell the collection complete. Part because I'm lazy, part because I'd like to see it go complete to a good home. I sold my complete Hasbro collection and customs to a guy a couple of years ago who was really passionate about them. Had a lot of offers to split them but couldn't bring myself to do it. The dude and I have since become mates and he's got them displayed perfectly! Link for pic of that collection:

The Hasbro collection was one of those deals where I thought I'd really regret selling them afterwards but I haven't and I think that's mostly because they went to a good home. Though I sometimes look at the pics and get wistful! :-D

Thanks dude ... I'm in the UK if that affects things at all. I was not aware that you were in the UK. They may have more value there than here in the US as they do not become available as often there. |

OK, cleaned up this topic; NO offers or responses to offers.
