Value of this lot

[generic]

Well, the seller got back to me and told me somebody told him he "could" get as much as $100 for the lot...so.

Yeah, he "could" also get a non-paying bidder, a high bid of $7.50 (the current bid as I type this), an audit by the IRS or a lottery ticket worth $,1,000,000.

There's an old saying about a bird in the hand...


EDIT: If it were my auction, I'd probably let it ride too. I just think the phrasing is kind of funny.

I made him an offer of $40, but I doubt he'll take it and I am fine with that. In all honesty, I hope he doesn't. I suddenly realized I'd rather put my money towards something better than a junker lot.

I use a wet cloth the green comes off and he will look new again.

There's always another lot around the corner. . . .don't forget to hunt the "mistake" listings

Wouldn't go more than $50 for the lot. Breakdown:

Iron Man Belt $15 - $25
Iron Man outfit $5 - $10
Green Arrow outfit $10 - $15
Green Arrow Head $5 - $10
Iron Man Head $5 - $10
Carrying Case $25 - $35 depending on the color inside (Red Or White) and if the seams are OK
Joker Shoes $10

Average it out and your looking at about $60 - $75 in re-sell.

I doubt he gets much better than $60. It's probably worth $60 if you're looking for it for yourself.

Case is a red interior but the divider is gone. Looks to be in decent shape overall. divider is easily replaced but not original. The GA suit is missing a cuff.

Very little of this I'd want to resell. I'd be buying it for my own collection.

What annoys me is I had an Iron Man belt and sold it. Not long ago, I thought Mego's were just too rare and expensive for me to collect, so I sold it. Less than a year later, I have 9 Mego figures and only two were purchased online. The rest I found locally.

The four heads are worth at least $15-$20. Ironman and Gobby will fetch between $7 and $10 on any given day. GA between $5 and $7. If the Corny is truly a rarer paint variation who knows. The one good T2 Mego body is worth at least $5. The Ironman suit $10-$15. Joker shoes $3 - $5 and the IM belt is $10-$15. Especially since the belts tend to be the rarer of the accessories for IM when they show up on ebay. The rest of the lot is probably worth $5-$10. There is what looks like a good T1 green hand left arm, a T1 white hand right arm, two T1 green legs and a T1 green torso and pelvis. Those pieces alone would be worth $2 each at least if you needed them. I'd say if you're looking at a fair market value, you could go as high as $40 with pickup and no shipping, and still be getting a deal value wise. There are a lot of little things in this lot that when you break it down add up. Plus the case at $5 - $10.

Galen has the green oxidised hair that people pay more for some reason. I wipe it off.

I don't think it's oxidized, it is a legit paint variation. I distinctly remember seeing Corny/Galen and Zira with shiny green hair like this when I was a kid back in the 70's.

[starsky]

what happened to that joker? was he used as a lolipop?

[toys2cool]

it has a bid, so I doubt he'll end it

I'll give it a shot, but I doubt he'll take it.


"I've been told they still have great value even in this condition"

This tells me he thinks he's sitting on a goldmine. If he doesn't accept my offer, I'll bid.
