Okay this is what I came up with. Tell me if you guys think these are decent prices. I decided that I rather break up the sets because I really dont want to part with my bronze or brown. Atleast I dont want to. Do you think these are good prices: KAWS 5YL: Gray = $350.00 Black = $350.00 Green GID = $350.00 KAWS x PUshead Black = $200.00 GID =$200.00 Silver = $250.00 BxH Giant mekaru kun w/both towers = $250.00 Monster family 1 The set that includes the frankenstein = $ 250.00 Monster family 2 = $200.00 SB Evil GF = $90.00 Haunted GF = $90.00
Thanks man. Okay well I'm gonna get photos today. So if anyone is interested PM me. I have a little time to get the money so I can post it here and the other place then ebay. I really want to aviod ebay fees but I guess its part of the game. I'm gonna do BIN on everything. So the prices will be a few bucks more to eat a hair of the prices.
200 for a silver KxP? i'll take it... or is that what u want to start your auction at? well ill PM you
Just putting this out there and it might be more hassel than it's worth but Celga is offering to sell stuff for folks here over in Japan. Those GF's could go for some money over there...of course the fees and shipping might negate any bonus to doing it there. And good for you keeping your RxH! You have to have some joy in your life you know? Either way I wish you the best man! Keep it going strong!
yeah man I sat and looked at my stuff. Did the math and decided that from hear on out its all RxH. Not every release but just RxH. Like everyone a little dab of Sb here and there. But my main focus is RxH. So I gatherd everything else crunched some numebrs and made it work out. If I sell everything I'll wipe my slate clean and be in the clear. Well as close to it. So i set the prices as best I could. Some are more than I paid some are lower. But in the end it equils out to almost exactly what I paid for everything. This also alows me to keep my 2 favorite KAWS pieces. And some SB figs I dont want to get rid of. And I made a mistake on the KxP I'm asking 250.00 for it. I think thats fair. Sorry for the typo. But everything else is correct.
aw.. well that's cool, now i'm not down 200 (although i think it would have been a bargain). wish i didn't pass on it at SDCC... & this one always slips by me 350 seems pretty good for the 5yl
Its all good man. I'm trying to get what I can as every penny is accounted for. I havent listed any thing in any BST yet so no one really knows. I will post them in the BST in a bit on both boards. And what I left oevr will go to ebay. Thats even if any sales come from BST. I just have to give a few people a heads up because of dibs. And then its listed.
I dunno, kind of looks like the seller has 'em wrapped in clear plastic to protect 'em (I've had a couple of oieces arrive that way before) If I wasn't holding out for the Disected 5YL next month I'd be all over the Green GID for $350!
$350 is really a nice price, esp. for someone out there looking to snag their first 5YL...but if you're in a bux-bind, LASH, I'd say setting it at $375-$390 for these is still very fair.
I think what I'm gonna do is get everything ready for ebay. It seems I've been swamped with replies that I'm asking to low a price. Which is great news as I need the dough badly and can use every penny. I think I will use those prices as starting prices. with no reserve. I dont want people to battle each other in my PM box. That should take care or everything (KAWS that is) and make it fair for me and everyone else.
Yeah....those prices are low. The 5YL's could go above $400 for each. Take good pics....it helps to get a better price.
If I could suggest two things: 1) Embrace maximum risk and start each auction at $1 with no reserve. There is a "feeding frenzy" that happens with eBay auctions that you can really capitalize on using this strategy. The lower the starting price is, the more bidders get involved in an auction earlier on, and towards the end, there end up being more people fighting it out and trying to snipe each other, partially because they want the toy, but also because they want to WIN. You will end up with much higher prices per piece. 2) Don't put all of your items up there at once. If you do, you might create a situation where you have individuals who want item A and B, but can only pay for one of them, so they will only bid on one. Staggering the timing of the auctions makes it more likely that they will bid on item A one week, item B the next, etc. Jim Cirronella from Club Daikaiju gave me these tips a while back and they've never failed me. He would sell Godzilla toys on eBay starting at 2 cents, and they would regularly go for prices above the regular retail prices he was charging through his web site. There was no reason why these people couldn't just surf over to his web site and buy these items for the regular price (in fact, he even included a link to the site in his auctions), but they shunned the shopping cart and succumbed to the psychology of eBay: people go there expecting a "deal," and get sucked into the gamble of the online bidding battle. Good luck. Hopefully your toys will get you through times of no money better than money will get you through times of no toys. ;p
lol you posted this juuuuust as I finisehd listing my last item.... Good advise though. What ever dosent sell I will keep this in mind for next time.
