    Need opinions on price

    I have had this Moon Knight on eBay for a month.
    What is a fair price for this figure?
    Doc Mego body
    Resin head made by me
    and what makes it awesome is the
    Brian Leitner suit and cape.
    What do you all think???

    Nice figure. No offense intended but in lieu of the "buyers" market that is ebay these days I'd say $35, which I know barely covers cost but like I said, "buyers" market. Good Luck!

      MoonKnight's a Tough Sell ... He's somewhat Obscure, and there's a Handful of Great Ones out there too.

        Thanks guys!
        I was trying to get $75.00, but I have only one offer for $50.00, and that just seemed low to me. With Brian's suit he just looks awesome.

          Just wait until the "heat" for the character goes up with the upcoming Brian Bendis/Alex Maleev series before you try and sell again. Next thing you know, he'll be as big a fan favourite again as Spiderwoman, Luke Cage and all the other seventies characters running around New Avengers these days.

          I wouldn't take it too personally. He hasn't really been that popular lately, with his last relaunched series sinking after an initial big splash. Plus keep in mind that he's probably one of the most-produced and easiest customs. You can generally assemble one by ordering off the shelf parts, and the head paints are simple enough. Although I'm sure we all agree that Leitner costumes are awesome.

                Do you really think he would've gotten up to $250 7 years ago? I think that's a little high all things considered....

                    ^^^that's because back then supply did not meet demand. Today supply exceeds demand.

                      ^^^ Exactly. High saturation of customs on ebay and the market seem to have stabilized the value. There is so much of an array of styles to choose from that it's become a buyers market.
                      Also character choice also plays a factor.

                      $50 is a great deal. I was speculating a between $40-$50 for the Moon Knight. Might sell a little more with packaging.
