Basically, I understand whatever reasons people want for the figure to be unopened, provided it's a personal reason. I've just seen too many comic/collectable fanatics flip out like the damned things shouldn't be touched or opened EVER.
Hey, I do hold on to all my packaging. And if it's a personal favorite, I keep it in the box and do what other people said "get a second".
My woman is really awesome when it comes to it. Every time she goes to Wal-Mart, Target, or even K-Mart she rolls through the toy section to see what they have. She knows exactly what I have, and she has an eye for things... she grabbed up the "3rd" Snake Eyes in a black costume, then found the "Greatest Battles" DVD set and made me keep the black costumed figure in the box, alond with the "1st" and "2nd" I have. Besides, the one in the DVD box was way cooler, anyway... good "Jungle Commando" look about him.
Anyway, neither here nor there.
My question at this point is:
Why, or rather How would you sell it? I tried this with some old X-men figures I bought extras for back in the day- A Spy Mission Wolverine, 1st and 2nd edition Deadpool, Robot Wolverine, and some others... and I kept checking Toyfare... nothing, not even worth the effort. Is that reliable, or how should I have priced them?
