I have a fair number of spaceships that I would like to sell and would like to get a good price for them. I don't want to charge too much, but I do want to sell them all. What's a good price? Is it better to sell in bunches or individually? Is it good to mix painted with unpainted? I trying to sell some Full Thrust, Ralnai (StarGuard), a few Star Blazers packs, and a lot of BFG. Here's a couple of examples: [URL=http://s1297.photobucket.com/user/d88mm1940/media/June%20Selling/BFGImperialFleet3b_zps8cd30999.jpg.html]

I'd sell them to NASA they seem to be willing to pay a lot. Although their budget has been depleted lately. |

You might put a fleet price and also break down the ships into smaller groups. |

Well the BFG ships go for a pretty penny on eBay….mostly unreasonable prices though. Most people would jump on them in an instant if they were priced more reasonably. I know I'd be interested in getting one or two of those Dauntless light cruisers. |

They are worth whatever someone is willing to pay for them. The best way to find out what People are willing to pay for them is to auction a couple on eBay. If they sell for a decent price lkeep listing them until they are all sold. |

BFG stuff can easily go for $20 USD+ a ship if you have the patience to sell small lots. |

Mixing manufacturers (GW, Reviresco, GZG,) might reduce the appeal of some lots to some buyers. GZG Would attract me (and others.) While I would not spend a penny on GW stuff others are already salivating over these I am sure. Reviresco is very much based on how nostalgic you are for stuff you owned "back in the day." |

Ebay has a "sold" search function for past (30 days? 90? not sure) auctions. Use "sold" not "completed" unless you want to see delusion in action items. |

Mr. Bystander is correct. The "advanced/sold" search is a seller's best friend. |

True, there are some varied prices on FT ships alone on eBay. Having said that, I'd go as high as USD12 for those Suffren light cruisers in your pictures :) |

Don't mix painted an unpainted. People who want painted ships don't want to bother with the unpainted ones. People who want to paint their own ships will prefer not having to strip paint. What's the front BFG ship in the first photo? |

The oddball ship is a conversion, I think, using a bolter or heavy bolter or some kind of 40K weapon, with some spare BFG stuff glued on. It may have been a light cruiser. |
