I'm basing my guestimates on what other customs have sold for. If you go to e-bay and do a customized search you can see completed listings, and then judge based on the type of custom, how big it is and the detail included as to how much your custom may or may not sell for, granted it isn't perfect but I was judging on the LOW end of the scale.
I don't think many of you guys realize how much and how many customs are selling for a good chunk and many of them IMO are not that high in quality. FTR... my Serpentor Custom sold for $90

A lot of my customs have been featured, here on the tank and on The Terrordrome just as have other customizers such as Jin. From what I can tell my quality is pretty high but it is an opinion.
For anyone curious you can see most of my work on my flickr page. zartanman's photosets on Flickr But as I said......your stuff looks top of the line. |

well its probably a recognition thing . some of the customises here have been selling customs for ages . your prob need more time to build a following i guess . i'm no expert customiser my self but i did buy on from the ebay once for 14$ it was a stormshadow custom done to the dic show version . i had but a lot higher bid against it and thought it get more . but i guess its luck of the draw.btw the transformers one weren't the ones done by that hot asian girl ? were they as that could explain the prime . her work is amazing .
Thus far my Transformers customs are not up to the same level of detail as either Frenzy Rumble or the "Asian Chick". I'm working on it, I'm just saying it seems like the Joe fan's are not willing to put out the same kind of money as the TF or SW Fans.

Actually he already sold. Sorry. I made a profit on that one. I guess I'm just shocked about Resolute Zartan I thought he would be more popular.

I'm not really crying or bitching RunAMuck, what I'm trying to do is get an opinion from my base market as a business man should. I'm sorry if that offends you.

Just remember that FrenzyRumble has been selling for a long time. I believe that once you get your name out there for a while youll do alot better. But for now youll have to just enjoy making these customs and enjoy the hobby. Ask around with some of the better know customizers like TTT and others. Im sure that they could give you some pointers if you would like to turn customizing into a well enough business.

The only problem with that is that HASBRO really frowns on it. I don't want to piss off the big boys as for now they seem to tolerate us customizers making money for our artwork. They really don't like it when you make custom packaging especially if it has their logos or artwork on it.
