First off this is very difficult for me to do, I don’t want to sell this army however recent events have driven this decision.
Looking for advice as well as offers.
for adivce what do you think this army is worth? I know what things are going for ebay wise but its good to get a baseline assesment from a community that specialzes in Big Hats.
Heres the army all original GW metal models unless noted -
16 Hobgoblin Wolfriders w/cmd – $9ec - Total-144$
21 Sneaky gits w/cmd – $7ec - 168$
20 Hobgoblin archers – $7ec - Total $140
12 bull centars w/cmd – $12ec - Total $144
2 Hobgoblin Bolt throwers w/crew $25ec - Total $50
2 Death Rockets w/crew – $25ec - Total $50
2 Earth shaker cannons w/crew – $30ec - Total $60
2 Lammasu w/riders --$35ec - Total $70
2 Great Taurus w/riders – $35ec - Total $70
2 Sorc on foot --$15ec - Total $30
50! Blunderbluss --$8ec - Total $400
22 Chaos Dwarf warriors with Great Weps – $8eac - Total $176
22 Plastic Chaos Dwarf Warriors with Hand Wep/Shield – $6ec - Total $132
5 Command grps – Champ/Musi/Stnd --$18ec - Total $90
–The Special Character – Can’t think of the name – $20
Total I would like to get at or around = $1,744
When I determined my price I looked at every model individually then times it by what I had. Please let me know what you guys think two much? two little?
Seems kind of high to me on some of the stuff. You can get blunderbuss and gw guys for a bout $5.00 each on average sometimes +/- $1.00. Plastic dudes are usualy pretty inexpensive I have seen them from $1-4 each on ebay, I recently bought 5 of them for $7.00+shipping. Hobgoblins are all over the place but normaly $5.00 +/- $2.00 so you are probably close there.
I fear I would have to agree, have been around the evil bay for now about a year shopping for CDs and it is too high. Problem is that if that was mine army it would be worth it for me, but there are very few people shopping for a complete army and with that big a wallet.
If you have very much luck and time and sell them as single minis you could perhaps get close to about 1400.
BTW, are they painted, stripped or unpainted? Could make a small difference.
Grossest miscalculation are the plastic warriors, set them to 2-3$ and the characters on foot who wont get you more than 10, Astragoth perhaps 12$, the remaining ones are 1-2$ on the high side. Cant tell anything about the warmachines.
But let us get the opinion of some of the greybeards, if they aren`t turned into stone by their old age.
The price you have listed in my opinion is the highest value you would get for these models. That would mean selling them off individually or unit by unit, which can be a bit of a drag/time consuming.
If you were looking for a quicker sale to one person the price would have to be substantially lower.
The new numbers look better but you will have a difficult time selling this as single lot and would be much easier to break up and sell in unit sized lots or perhaps groups of 5-10 models
