So I am not getting a lot of feedback or interest here. Are my prices way off on these items? I have a lot of Joe stuff I would like to sell if there are some specific things someone is looking for please let me know I may have it. As I said in my first post, reasonable prices will not be refused, and the prices listed are very negotiable.
First let me say I am not telling you this with any tone of sarcasm or "attitude." Just trying to answer you and give you examples. So here we go:
1) You need to better describe your items. MORE information is always better. A picture says a lot, but what is complete? What is missing items? Are there file cards? Blue prints? Loose joints? etc. The less "work" a buyer has to do, the better chance you have of getting more interest.
2) Yes, your pricing is way too high on most of your items. For example: $200 for 2 incomplete Dreadnok Stuns with apparently no paperwork or stickers? A complete, loose one MAY get half that on Ebay. $150 for a group of "sandtroopers", of which all are from the last 8 years? There isn't that much interest yet in the past 10 year's toy except for "rare" items. $250 for a bunch of troopers, of which how many are complete? File cards? None seem to be vintage (pre-90s). This is a board of fans, and we have a pretty good pulse on pricing. A lack of interest should already tell you that your prices are too high.
3) I can only speak for myself here, but you and I are too far apart on pricing, so what you consider a "reasonable" offer is probably still going to be too high for my tastes, and what I consider a "reasonable" offer is probably too low for you.
4) EBAY. Regardless what others may say, it is your friend for pricing. You can get a good idea of values by searching the site. Just remember that you should check out prices of completed auctions. There are thousands of auctions where there is no interest/sale and that is almost always due to pricing.
5) Finally, don't fall into the same trap so many do. You need to come at this with a sense of detachment. Many sellers I have seen in the past , from all fandoms, get caught up in the "business" mentality. They think what it cost them to acquire the items and feel they should get a return on them. However they don't look at the market and try to gauge what might be worth selling versus what they should "just get rid of."
Good Luck!
