or a better question, what it "might" be worth (and I know value is subjective and changes from day to day it seems)...

I had to renew my collectible insurance policy this month, so I took an "inventory" of my collection... and I was shocked at not what it may or may not be worth, but what I had spent on it...

so, got me to thinking, do others know what their collection is worth, and if so, have you insured it!

I know there are only a handful of folks out there with mega $ collections, but what about the rest of us...

have you thought about it hm ]]> Mego Buzz NewForce http://megomuseum.com/community/showthread.php?t=33173 <![CDATA[KISS mego's.

John ]]> Mego Buzz http://megomuseum.com/community/showthread.php?t=33100 Just thought i would share this story with you.. http://megomuseum.com/community/showthread.php?t=33085&goto=newpost Mon, 16 Nov 2009 08:18:35 GMT This is a very true stroy i wanted to share with you all..I went to a local antique center here in R.I. on sunday with my wife.I always go here at least twice a month for the last 6 or 7 years.Its a nice place to find some good deals except..there are just some sellers who do not know whats going on when they price something.

There was a booth with 5 Mego loose trek figures,spock,kirk X2,bones,scotty.They were locked so i asked a member of thier staff to open it and the staff member was actually the owner of that very booth who just started there,i have never seen him before.He is in his late 60's and he asked what i wanted to look at so i said the star trek figures please,he took them out..i looked at them incomplete with some weapons,no foil as well.

A couple had some stain issues and some paint issues,dust so i looked at the tag and my jaw dropped that my wife asked me whats wrong.The prices he marked were a whopping $69 a piece:terror:..i was in total shock!!I asked him why so high on these,they sell on ebay for $10-$20 depending on shape and what might be missing and yadda yadda yadda..he asked whats an offer you can give me on them,i said offer on them?/I won't start from these price tags sir because the price will still not be adjusted correctly,you want $350 for these.

He said those are old and expensive pieces and i stopped him and offered him $20 each figure to be nice and get this going before the sun sets..he looked at me and said with a high tone in his voice,your not my type of customer and want these for $20 each they go for $70 each loose on ebay now please i have no time for joksters like you and don't insult me again.Again..my jaw dropped harder:terror:.I was lost for words,i didn't want to argue with him.

Well i went right to the actual owner of the place who has known me for years and explained to him whats going on and he agreed because he has been doing this for 20 years in the buisness and said he was now going to spot check items to make sure these new sellers are not overcharging the public on some items,there have been other complaints.Can you believe the nerve on that guy,i mean put a price on it yeah its yours but don't rip off the public with a price thats 5-6 times its value.I was still in shock when i left to see that some people really do not belong in buisness!:ugh_y:

All in all before i left i picked up a loose nude falcon,kirk,batman,cochise with his feather but no shoes and robin no boots or gloves for $3 each from another booth.He said there will be more nude ones next week and a boxed Green Arrow and carded batgirl he will be brining in for me.I dont know prices yet but i cant wait till next week to see them. ]]> Mego Buzz http://megomuseum.com/community/showthread.php?t=33085 CONTEST!!!

I did a bunch of quick, fun, from memory Mego sketches the other day. I didn't have any photo references or anything in front of me at the time, that's why they're not exact. Fun though!

Notice the Lily Ledyness of the Batman and Robin at top left.
