got a joblot of parts from a dirty loft find put together a falcon from it id say 65% complete! now do i strip it down and sell the parts or sell as it is for a project for some one restore?????
 
Kinda depends on what parts are there and what parts are missing

To be honest, these things kinda balance themselves out. Theres nothing worse than being left a 'shell' which is bulky, ugly and impossible to sell.

If you have enough parts to make it playable I would sell as a project. I had one recently with parts missing which went for about £65.

Agreed, it sounds appealing to sell the ball and chair for £20 each but you're then stuck with the rest of it that won't sell at all.

I charged £15 postage. Thats first class recorded.
 
Never had any problems with Hermes.

Collected, Tracked and insured for cheaper than Royal Mail. Save on petrol aswell as postage. All postal services will throw your parcel around so it's down to how it's packed. Claims through Hermes are super easy too and all done online.
 
ive decided too restore the falcon partially and move it on as i have a complete falcon already too fund new purchases. and hope the new owner finishes of the job. :)
