What kind of advice do you want mate?

Is there any value to any of these items.. Pretty much thats all i wanted to know.. Is there a market for them?

Vintage Star Wars is worthless.

 

[Grant_C]

Theres a market for all vintage Star Wars.

The stuff you have is quite common.

To get an idea of price it would take multiple shots of the box and it contents to get an idea of condition. Condition is everything, unless they are super rare.

To be honest- the pictures so far, show the items it great condition. Its a good start. :wink:

You'll probably find multiple examples of these on ebay to get a price, but i can assure you, if the price is right, collectors on this forum will buy them off you and they will go to a good home where they will be looked after and appreciated.

Hi there, if you just include a little personal information about yourself (and ebay account link would help too). Then i'm sure people will be able to help you out.
One thing, are the boxes empty or do they have toys in?

Pete.

Multiple Shots, show detail.

The more detail and disccription- the more likely people will buy.

You see?

I can def take more pic's like that.. But I was curious, just from what you see so far and what i explained, What would i price items like this as?

To give you an accurate value members will need to see the contents of the boxes as well, prices can vary greatly depending on the condition of the actual toy, if the box has it's cardboard inserts, instructions and so on.

I'd also put a link to your eBay feedback on here so people can see that you are reliable

 

[PGowdy]

I already asked him to do that and add some personal information but he dodged it. I won't be valuing anything on this thread.

Sir I dont have an ebay account.. Im a 62 year old man from America, who bought his son some toys in the early 80's and then was cleaning out house and found them.. I was told to get on here and ask for values of items.. I wasnt aware i had to give personal information for friendly advice or info on items.. Im not asking anybody to buy them.. It was just a curiousity thing.. I understand I would have to take more pictures to get a more accurate value.. no problem.. I dont know what you want me to say.. Its not a big deal on my end

A lot of the suspicion is based around the number of people that come on here looking for values, are given a lot of help by the collectors on here and then nothing else is heard from them (and the items generally appear on ebay).

Secondly, most people start these threads with the intention to sell the items - there are a lot of members who would be happy to buy them - trouble is there are some naughty people out there that post up pictures of items that they don't own - or take people's money but don't send the items - hence the request for a bit of background info.

Basically, you have some nice items - nothing special and nothing that is going to make you rich - if you are looking to sell them then I am sure people will be interested. If you are not then they are nice items and worth keeping for the future.
