Wow Great Collection, Is It Worth 18k?

[Sonic The MadHOG]

This dude is down sizing his collection, if that's down sizing how big is his collection?

 

[Shai]

Bahh, most of it are busts...


Statues > Busts

lol thats a LOT of boxes to keep

Yeah that was my first thought, there's only a few without boxes. You'd need a huge room for the boxes alone.

So many busts, I really can't tell if it's worth 18k, that's around $26,500

your wasteing your time trying to sell a massive lot like that, he defently needs to break it down as people searching for busts statues may not look in that sale or even see it

 

[kazukijun]

he should just open a museum & charge entrance fee for ppl who come n see it
maybe he will make back some money.

 

[jkno]

He will sell faster and maybe even for more money if selling in lots, or each bust/statue separately, offering shipping options, not only pick up,

Yeah it's a sad, sad day when the situation arises that you need or want to sell that much of your collection

If I had that much stuff, I wouldn't want strangers coming by my house! He is just begging for a home invasion.

Yeah home museums ain't a good idea

not even worth half of what he is asking for ...

It's hard to say, I think he's hoping he gets lucky & some rich dude that isn't completely clued up on the value of these things comes along & buys the lot, it's been known to happen & it's certainly a great collection.

OMG That's less than half the stuff my guy's selling & he's selling it for about 21k GBP, now that is unbelievable

but people who haven't bought these types of items really have no idea whatsoever. i've had people see my collection and say things like "wow this one looks expensive, you must have spent $200 on it" when in fact I spent $2000!!! little do they know that a hot toys plastic figure retails for $200 and non-collectors probably think I paid $20 since it is basically a toy.

That's why the internet is so useful, a quick search of Sideshow, Bowen & eBay of the items listed & you'll know that $31k for those collectables is a major rip-off

You're totally right with this one.

 

[Sonic The MadHOG]

You're totally right with this one.

Well the 31k auction has been sold to an offer, man I'd like to know what that offer was I suspect not even 10k.

The offered was declined whatever it was. Maybe this guy will relist it in waves but I doubt it looking at his description.

Yeah he must be on some Canadian crack or Acid, 31k What an unbelievably high price for a pretty small collection
