A fair price for a boxed sandcrawler please:) new pics added

[threaders]

Hi fellas,
Its been the only boxed vehicle that I dont have for years and I never thought I would get hold of one until recently
I have it in the book at being worth 700 euros and that is the 2003 star heroes collectors book. I know these guides are usually way out, so thought I would ask on here. Here is a pic:

In the sanwseet book from the 90's it is listed at around £250. What do you guys think is a fair and reasonable amount to pay. Many thanks, Jonathan

It all depends on the contents of the box (inserts etc.)

Its boxed and still sealed at one end, sandcrawler is complete and working but no cardboard insterts unfortunatly. I have already bought it and should of asked here first, but exitement got the better of me

Anyone got any idea of what these are worth nowadays??? Any help would be much appreciated fellas

I think, I sold one for around £200 in similar condition a few years back, though can't be sure on that

£200 seems very cheap to me. I paid that for my boxed shuttle, but thought the sandcrawler was worth around £300 - £350 :?

 

[sith-smith]

A lot will depend on condition and when it was bought/sold. I Paid £300 for my boxed shuttle. Then bought a sealed one for the same price a few years later.

Cheers sith smith I get to open it next week for my Birthday. I paid £300 all up for it, which I thought was fair, but maybe it was slightly over the odds. I will post up pics when I have opened it and would appreciate any advice on the value.
I am not looking to sell, as I have been after one of these for years and never thought I would get hold of one .
I wouldnt say no to another loose shuttle, my boxed one has some slight yellowing to the vehicle

Well fellas. Finaly opened my present and I have to say, a little disapointed. I was hoping for a near mint box, but this one is a bit rough. Here are some pics, so please judge for yourselves :|

The toy inside is mint and complete and is all working, so am very happy with that. I gues I should have doen more research on what these are worth, before laying out the £300 that I paid. I just have never seen one for sale in England before and had the money there at the time. Just shows to be patient.
Any advice on the value of this as it stands, would be greatly appreciated even if its bad news fellas. No card inserts, but instructions are there and all decals are in great shape.
Many thanks for your help chaps

When you think of the age of this item - and that the box was never really meant for long term display purposes then I think it looks pretty good. If the sandcrawler is mint and 100% complete then I think you have a good deal at £300 (I'd buy it for that!)

That cheers me up a little, so thanks for that itfciain. Thinking about it I would prefer to pay more for a better example as all my other boxed items a real nice Youll have first dibs if I sell it mate
Be nice to see some other examples and prices so I have something I can compare it too.
