So as it pains me to type this up, I feel the time has come to consider letting my Joes go :-( The past 3 years or so of collecting has been awesome and I wouldn't change it for anything, the thrill of the hunt, getting that amazing deal, making a great find etc etc but I've been seriously thinking of letting it all go. I still enjoy Joes but many things are starting to build up and eat at me. I've got to give credit where credit is due and thank my wife for being ever so patient with my collecting and understanding that they make me happy so to speak but I feel that I've been doing ALOT of taking and not alot of giving. I guess I feel as though they are really taking up alot of my time as well as $ obviously. Not to mention all the time I spend on the Tank, just reading hundreds of posts weekly. I don't post too much myself but that doesn't take away from the fact that I am constantly on this site. Now that I have explained myself at least a little, what would be an equitable price to ask for a collection that I will soon list? My goal isn't to try and make huge profits(would be nice though), it's to try and recuperate my initial investment. So, what would be fair asking price for a collection that includes complete carded waves 1-9, the majority of waves 10-12 or 13 can't remember how many waves there were. All the comic packs, all waves of vehicles to date from the 25th line still boxed, The Ultimate Battle Pack, Dvd sets 3 and 4, and roughly 40(including multiples of CS Snake Eyes, Red Fang Ninja, etc) or so ROC figures still carded and all 3 ROC 2 packs, as well as the rhino still boxed, Cobra Gunship, Steel Crusher, Dragonhawk, &Crimson Hydra. Forgot to mention, the defense and attack of cobra island 7 sets still sealed and the first G I Joe 5 pack, as well as the red ninjas vs snake eyes set, doc carded, wraith variant carded, and shipwreck variant carded. I will also throw in a box full of vintage figs loose and some vehicles you can use for parts or fodder. Lastly, I do have several pieces(not complete) for the FLAGG that I'm willing to part with that may just be what you need to complete yours or just get one started. Condition of the pieces varying but none terrible...can probably be cleaned carefully. I'm sure I am forgetting to mention some stuff but what I have is pretty substantial and extensive I think. I will formally list on ebay probably this weekend where I have 100 feedback. Unfortunately, I don't have feedback here although I did trade with like 3 or so Tankers successfully whom I'm sure would vouch for me and attest that I am legit. I know this is long winded and very haphazard, but I just want to see what is equitable as far as asking price. Thanks again for taking the time to read this long post and I look forward to hearing your comments. Attached are a few pics. Please disregard the marvel stuff as they will be in a separate lot.
Addendum:Not really sure if all loose ARAH in the pics are even ALL G I Joe characters to begin with but there are also 2 FULL plastic bags of weapons and what my wife calls "shit". I'm willing to let things go in "lots" if I don't generate any interest initially in the entire set. Please let me know if I have any "jewels" in the older stuff or if my wife is correct in her assessment. Thanks again Danny Vintage Starduster sold All vintage night force sold Last edited by dangle3106; 02-03-2010 at 10:15 AM.. |

I don't know about rare, but you do have a few ARAH figures that can do well in solo auctions. 2 that jump out are Sky Duster and steel brigade. If you have their weapons, they would be worth even more. Also the crusader pilot can be hard to find. PM sent about some of your stuff

Will update list here tonight(as some stuff has already been requested) and take ya'lls advice and sell in small to medium sized. "Mods I apologize for not posting this in the proper place" but please ensure it gets in the right spot/lesson learned...I apologize to you too Ilikeadajoes......frickin relax.
As far as the vinatge stuff goes, you're right...most figs look to be incomplete but I just searched through a "weapon bag" and some of them have alot of their accessories and amazingly enough too, filecards. Been doing a little research as well and I'm seeing that a few of them fetch substantially more $ if complete and in good shape....love that "yo joe" site :-) Keep posted if interested Thanks P S-I still have to get back with some of you from the first wave of pm's....bear with me please |
