Pricing Advice

[gauntinator]

So I want to sell a few nids to this guy at my local store. In the past this guy has been pretty difficult to deal with when negotiating prices. So I was hoping the hive could hive me their two cents and if need be I can refer him to this page. So I have:

A mawloc primed black with some red paint on it. The "paint job" isn't good at all and the primer is on a little thick so some of the detail is gone. One of its arms is off but easily fixable. Other than that the model is in decent shape.

I have a carnifex with a heavy venome cannon and scything talons. It's primed black and still has great detail. Put together very well.

Two warriors with assorted weapons and upgrades. Primed black, good detail still on the models, put together very well.

So what do you guys think? Prices for individual models or the whole thing would be great. I'm thinking about 20 dollars for the mawloc, 25 for the carnifex, and 15 dollars for the two warriors. Do those prices sound too high, too low, just right?

Thanks in advance.

Well things are worth what the seller wants to get for them and what the buyer is willing to pay so its a bit subjective. Personally, I dont buy second hand for more than half price, but then again these are primed not painted and theres no shipping so I'd possibly pay a bit more if i really wanted the models. I might not sell for that, tho, but thats cos I'd still want the models.

Me personally? I'd pay around 25dollars for the mawloc, around 20 dollars for the Cfex, but probably only 8 dollars for the two warriors. Thats just my take, and i'v had to convert to dollars (im a Brit). Its all subjective.

yeah i mean its really in the seller iv bought stuff of a guy for half the retail, iv bought stuff for a tenth of retail.

fnorrl has about the right prices with the exception of the warriors. Half price is $7 but warriors go for $5 or less on ebay. I got 9 of my 18 warriors for $3 apiece (including shipping).

Yeah, i realize it's all up to the buyer but my prices don't seem outrageous do they?

I wouldn't pay that much for those -
Re: Mawloc: poorly painted/obscured detail is a good way to irritate me. Means extra work.
Re: VC Fex: sub-optimal weapon selections mean that not only do I need to change out the upgrades, but I also need to use my own bits to fix it up "right"
Re: Warriors: I'm not sure what you mean by 2 with assorted upgrades... still, just two? hells no. I can't do anything more than make 2 Warrior primes, or if I already have warriors (I don't) I'd have to get a whole new box.

Bleh

The Mawloc is appropriately priced, maybe a little low, but Fexes actually go for crazy low prices since there were so many of them in the 4th edition days and they are only used as Tervigons now... and much less so since the Tervigon model actually exists.

$15 for 2 warriors is high.

Um.... this (asking for a price for models) is expressly against the forum rules/guidelines.

Asking for a ballpark or rule of thumb. (ie. 50% for used, +/- 20% for paint quality) would be fine, but not for specific models.

Please check the guidelines.
