Fellow People of the Tank...
Most of us collectors are faced with the common dilemma. How much should we pay for that elusive MOC figure??? There are those that wouldn't dish out more than retail price for a fig... those that have a strict limit on how much they'd spend (i.e. $60, etc)... and those that shell out exorbitant amounts of cheese for their most coveted piece of plastic. As a modern collector of the 25th, I'm curious as to how much YOU would pay for the following elusive Joe's. PLEASE PLEASE share your thoughts! I know there are many other Tankers out there just as curious. Your posts can determine going rates for these puppies. 1. SDCC Gold PDD 2. SDCC Silver PDD 3. Rowdy Roddy Piper 4. Yellow Stalker 5. SDCC Blue CC 6. SE w Black Timber 7. Shipwreck shark tattoo 8. Gung Ho w/ unpainted anchor 9. Doc mail away 10. CLEAR WRAITH* Have fun with this!

For me I only buy what I like...price is not an issue, that list has nothing I would add to my collection should all that be available at retail, for retail cost with the exception of SE w/black Timber.
But the rarity ruins it for me...why pay more for something you don't even want to begin with ? Like I said, I'm not too big on any of those to begin with so they're all a pass.

I like Shark Tattoo Shipwreck, Black Timber SE, Black SDCC, and the Clear Wraith.
The rest of those are garbage IMO

1. SDCC Gold PDD- $15
2. SDCC Silver PDD- $15 3. Rowdy Roddy Piper- Id be willing to ship one of my turds as an even trade 4. Yellow Stalker- $5 bucks 5. SDCC Blue CC- pee in a bottle perphaps? 6. SE w Black Timber- $7.50 7. Shipwreck shark tattoo- $5 8. Gung Ho w/ unpainted anchor- $4 9. Doc mail away- $7.50 10. 25th Duke w/ upside down flag- $5 Can you tell that I could care less about variants or rareness? They are super over-rated especially when they dont even look cool. The most I have ever paid for a modern Joe was 12.50 shipped.

Of all these 10 figures, I brought piper x 2 at 25 bucks each. Destro gold at 25 bucks and another at 75 bucks. Destro silver x 2 for 20 bucks each. Paid snake eyes with black timber for 30 bucks. Paid shipwreck with shark tattoo for 15 bucks. The cheapest by far was duke upside down flag for 8 bucks.

The answer to your question is the following equation:
X=Y-Z where X = what I would pay and Y=what I could sell it for and Z=any amount greater than $15

these amounts are solely my opinion of a secondary market value and are only applicable if the card is a C9.8 or gem mint (AFA 9.5 or higher equivalent) ...but it doesn't mean i'd pay these prices.
1. SDCC Gold PDD = $250.00 - $300.00 (only if the date stamp on the back is 71112) 2. SDCC Silver PDD = $100.00 3. Rowdy Roddy Piper = $450.00 4. Yellow Stalker = $350.00 - $400.00 5. SDCC Blue CC = $ 85.00 - $95.00 6. SE w Black Timber = $100.00 7. Shipwreck shark tattoo = $ 50.00+ 8. Gung Ho w/ unpainted anchor = $50.00+ 9. Doc mail away = $ 45.00 - $55.00 10. 25th Duke w/ upside down flag = hoax, doesn't exist. Last edited by QBERT; 03-06-2009 at 11:01 PM.. |
