lowillsw Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Question do you think $125.00 is a reasonable price to ask for all these mini figs? Looks like there's at least 20 minifigures in each bag. Go for it. Anything less than 1.50 for regular or 2.00 for license is good enough for me.

MartinP Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 I would go for it. There seems to be a lot of minifigures in that lot. By any chance, do you know how many minifigures there are in the lot? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

comicblast Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Go for it. I'd always shoot lower than higher though. If the seller isn't satisfied with your price, got higher, until they accept. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MartinP Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Various city sets mine, airport,and police and so on... That adds variety to the lot. It is still a good deal. Some city minifigures are rare and may be worth something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boxofcorey Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 If you're selling them, I think you're settling too low. If a decent number of them have accessories, try asking 2$ per in a bulk lot. I'm sure you'll get a few PMs from people here trying to "help you" sell them!

From what your are saying, $125 is way too low. From what you said, there is at least 400 minifigures, I think you should be able to get at least $200 for 400 mini figures. you could get more. I think the best way to sell the minifigures is individually, that way, you can get the most profit from them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odysea11 Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 At the very least, break them down into smaller lots of similar themed figs. You will get WAY more than $125. Selling in bulk like that is begging one of us to low ball you just to turn around and make the profits ourselves. It won't take that much effort, and you can net at least double what you're talking, if not more! Selling individually is where the best money is, but that's considerable more effort and time involved. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
segreto Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 If they are random and from random sets, why do you have set booklets in the bags? I am no big city lawyer, but I would: Put all similar soldier themed minis together in sets and sell in lots of 5+ Put as many whole series sets together as you can and sell as a set. Put random city characters together in sets of 5+ Sell rare minis individually. But, and this is the most important, take some better pictures. If I saw that on ebay, even if it were $50.00, I would pass thinking they were refuse or covered in refuse. With the blurry pictures and the huge white label on the bags, it looks like you are trying to hide something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

odysea11 Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 That's understandable, I think that segreto's point is more about watching the picture quality when you post. Good pictures can sometimes double the amount that you get for a lot. People like to see exactly what they're getting. The general public is already weary of online sellers, you need to make them comfortable with purchasing from you. You will get many more high quality transactions when everything is spelled out up front. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diabolos80 Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 I see a Santa in there. He's worth $10+. No way should you sell this a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoNotInsertIntoMouth Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Thats a good price - PM me. Lol In reality, bulk lots I would actually get the figures out and take pictures of them in groups so people can see whats there. You will make a lot more than $125 on them.

@rtisan Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 If you have 400+ figures in there (which I believe to be the case) there is no way you should sell for $125. That`s about $0.30 a piece! You should sell for at least $1.00 per as a bulk item I would think, especially if you have SW in there. I like what others have said. Try individually if you have the time, or group them together by theme/series and see what happens. Just my thoughts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshTX Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Do what you want, but as others have said, a small bit of effort goes a long way. You could double your profit with just a few minutes sorting efforts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest brickcrazyhouse Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 to many minifig's what a great problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scissorino Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 All ways of making money require the investment of time. This is why spending time sorting, photographing and listing minifigures like this is worthwhile. Time = Money. I'd happily spend a few hours getting these ready for sale knowing I was going to make some money. Also do research on individual figs to find selling prices (sold items search on ebay is great.)
