A good value for this trade?

Post by Darkzephyr »

Hey everyone,

I'm about to make a trade for some figures that I hope to resell. I want to make sure I'm estimating their values correctly, so I'm not over-trading to get them (and that I'll be better off selling them as opposed to the items I plan to trade for them).

All the models below are primed and assembled. Some are painted too. I will probably sell them as is, but I may try to improve on their paint jobs as well. If pics would help, I'll try to post some soon.


Heavy Weapons squad (6 models) 10
Rhino 20
Tactical Squads 25 figs 30
Terminator Chaplain 15
Terminator Squad (6 Termies) 20
Land Speeder 15
Templar Champion 15
Total 125+

I would estimate lower. Shoot for 30% retail.

Rhino 15
Infantry 1 ea
Terminators 3 ea
Etc

There is no rule or guarantee.
The best advise I can offer is to presume that, on a good day, you will be able to resell them for 50% of retail. Make your decisions based from that.

I think what this situation needs is some imagination.
