Thats a tough call....that Matt Mason lot is probably worth close to if not over a hundred by itself. The 2 joes nude would be worth about $35 each....the rest of the stuff I'm not too sure about, but it looks good. It's all probably worth over $200. If it was me, I'd be comfortable offering around $150, but thats about it.

I don't have money falling out of my butt right now. But I'm going to try to offer $100, he seems easy to deal with. For all I know those Major Matt Mason figures could have tears and broken wires. Not sure about the condition of the other stuff.
Do any of the weapons, clothing and accessories look to be repro? He had a lot of Joe stuff in boxes, the newer stuff. So I want to be sure it's all vintage in that pic.
Can't tell if there's repro stuff there (aside from the space capsule), but there is some knock off stuff (probably from the 70s) which is generally worthless. It doesn't look like there's a lot of great stuff there- the MSV (larger vehicle) looks to have to door broken off, and we can't tell if it's complete or in good condition from the photos. Same goes for the ATV.
The Joes seem ok if the hair and paint are good and the body and hands are intact, but these aren't going for that much these days. One Joe is wearing the Tank Commander jacket. Not rare, but not as common as the other stuff in this lot. If the rifles are vintage and mint with no breaks then they are some of the most valuable items in the lot.
What you need to do is scan eBay's completed auctions and see what stuff sells for and do the math. Again, there's nothing rare here so an average lot of accessories on eBay will suffice for a price comparison. Even though it's not vintage, the space capsule can go for some money occasionally (at least it did in the past, I haven't checked lately).
