[toys2cool]

Complete silver soldier ape in a hidden auction for $45.

I see a couple of members listed this one for around the same price,how much does he usually go for?

About 5 years ago I was at a toy show and a guy had 4 figures that were dead mint like they were just torn off the card. Gobby (no satchel), Cap (with shield but no sticker on it and original cloth emblem), Ironman complete, and Torch. it was a slow show so I talked him down to $40.00. Complete RC bats for $20 a couple of weeks ago from a guy 3 minutes from where I work so no shipping. Non Mego 4 Vintage Pez for under $2 each. Entire collection of Transformers cassettes for Soundwave and Blaster in one bag for $7.99 at a second hand store all complete.

That's hard to say. I have seen loose Silver soldiers go for $200+ on Ebay. I have seen non-Ebay sellers asking much more.

$3 a piece in a toy show? what the hell was that guy thinking?

There are a lot...not as many as Luey...but there are a lot.

Carded Mr. Fantastic (French Card) Ebay lot...$2
First Mego lot I bought at a toy show Carrying Case with complete Joker, Penguin, Batman, Robin, and Riddler stuffed in ...$100
Boxed Robin Ebay Auction $65
Boxed Knights $75 each from the same seller in different auctions

Mint off of Card Superman and Batman from the same seller...no pic in the ebay auction...$25 shipped. Still have them in my collection.
All 4 Mad Monsters in 4 different auctions from the same seller...$16

Non Mego would have to be a Pez Lot I bought from my local thrift store. Each Pez ended up costing me about 20 cents each...sold one of the Pez's, Sylvester with no feet for $15. The other Pez I sold from the lot was a Eerie Spectre Series Pez...$150. Not a bad turnover in that lot

Beatles 45 From Me To You / Thank You Girl...probably the second hardest Beatles 45 to get...cost me 25 cents from the thrift store...worth about $800 + in the Beatles Price Guide. Still in my collection...Cause I'm a HUGE!!! Beatles fan.

wow and I thought i just got a good deal on one for $150

[cjefferys]

Wow, some of you guys got some great deals. I suppose mine were: a Robin, Joker and Wolfman, mint in near perfect mint boxes, at $20 each. Of course, this was back in 1988, at the time I wasn't sure how great the price was, but in hindsight it was a deal in the long run (on the other hand, at the same time I passed up a Green Arrow and Aquaman in simliar condition for $30 each. D'oh!!)

[theantiquetiger]

Everyone knows mine:

Boxed Green Arrow car
Boxed Spidy car
Boxed Capt America car
Boxed Riddler van
Boxed Batlab
Boxed Bat cave
Boxed Hall of Justice
loose Batmobile
loose Bat Cycle with side car
and about 30 loose but mint and complete figures including GA, WW, BG, all 4 FF, Thor, Tarzan, CA, monsters

I think I am forgetting a couple items

All for $160

included in this $160 was also some boxed SMDM figs and playsets, including a boxed Big Foot and a boxed Mask-A-Tron.

I have been meaning to ask who here got some of this collection I flipped? I know two guys spent almost $2000 each, but I don't remember who they were.

[Earth 2 Chris]

Mine aren't nearly as glamorous.

Health Spa Dinah- $1 at a yard sale.

Isis - -$8 at a Barbie show

Boxed Batcave and mint loose Riddler - $100 from a pawn shop

Those are what I feel were the best deals. The rest I paid fair prices for. I've yet to feel hosed on my Mego purchases.

Almost forgot - several years ago, I found a NM Green Arrow hat on the floor of a toy show that I paid nothing for! I actually asked around but couldn't find wherever it came from, so I took it home and traded it off to someone for something else I needed.
