to date, i've only bought 25th, ME & ROC. i am looking for a little guidance so i don't get ripped off buying vintage.
i am thinking i might like to get a 1984 Ripcord MOC, but not sure what i should expect to pay? a pretty rough plasitrama is on eBay w/ a BIN of $100 an on-line price guide suggests $100-140 i've had an offer for another one at $250 brians toys have AFA80 listed at $450 brians toys have AFA85 listed at $599 these prices are all over the place. is condition really going to range from $100 to $600? is brians toys WAY over priced? is a $250 offer a fair price or would i be paying too much? thanks in advance for any assistance! |

Retailers like Brian's Toys have such a huge markup they really can't be used as a reference. Watch a few on ebay and that way you can get a good idea of a fair market price for them. I bet you could get a pretty good one for under $200.

I was watching them for a while hoping to be able to snag one cheap(under $100) but I gave up on that. I'd say you're looking at $150-$350 for one. AFA graded ones will always be marked up by online dealers so stay away from them if you don't care if they are graded.

thanks guys!
i figured brian's toys was marked up pretty good. so, $250 might be a little high but not be a terrible price if it's in excellent condition??? seller says its the 'ultra rare "with holes" helmet version'. i don't know if i care about that, i just don't want to pay too much... |
