What's my statue, prop, diorama worth?

[Rogue_Predator]

Hey folks,

I couldn't find a thread in this section with regards to the current worth of an Alien or Predator collectible so am hoping to get this up and running to find out whether I'm getting robbed or not as I'm sure some of you must feel the same?

I'd like to start the thread with this...

I am wanting this so bad and have found a new one for £2500 shipped. Is that good or????

Not sure but having it arrive in one piece is a risk...

This has gone up from retail but no way it's worth that much. Be patient you'll find one cheaper than that if you wait it out.
It's an awesome bust

Depends what part of the world you live in. Very few come up in the U.K, like literally non.

Collectables are only worth what someone is willing to pay for them.
'Completed listings' on eBay is the best guide for what people have recently payed for an item.
Gets tough for things like this because you won't find any, especially in Europe.

If it's worth 2.5K to you go for it... I wouldn't personally.
Rather spend less on the Classic 1:1 if I was spending that much on a Bust.

My philosophy now is if I missed it, my loss.
Not prepared to line someones pocket and risk the hassle and disappointment if it's not up to my standards.

I see people asking crazy money for that one, but to sell they usually go for around $1000.

that's not even 2.5 in US, it's euros! Not worth more than $1500 imo. I honestly wouldn't even pay $1500 to reacquire this even if I had the room.

OP said he can get one for 2,500 GBP £, over 4,100 US $.
Crazy money.

Thanks for your reply guys... It is crazy money isn't it :/
I really want the Pred Alien bust.....
So we reckon around £800-£1000 tops??

Yeah that is a big concern of mine :/

Waiting maybe the option to go for as £2500 is a killer

I'm thinking that £1000 should be enough to cover one of these should it ever pop up for sale?

I had to collect my Berserker Bust because there was no box, cost me £400.
While I understand these two are worth quite a bit more I wouldn't personally consider anything over 1K each.

$800 predalien/$1200 P1, plus whatever being in the UK adds. His asking price is nuts.

Seems common practice for no conversion to take place on Ebay, and major companies alike, $1000 = £1000 to many...

Yea, that is unfortunate. You have the conversion, then the scarcity of big pieces like that as shipping/taxes are terrible to get them to you from overseas so the ones in country get driven up too.

Haven't seen a P1 Bust for <£2,000 in a long time.
As said, the PredAlien is very rare over here.

The PredAlien sells for less than retail in the States? That's a surprise.
