Just putting out feeders atm to see what sort of communication i can get back ...

All the communications so far on here are telling you that you want above retail prices !
Don't waste your time bud put them on EBay as a bulk buy on 1 listing watch all the watches come on board !

Thanks @Dundo appreciate the assistance

Parrapaul · Dec 29, 2016

There are plenty of respected collectors on here trying to advise you on these and if you don't choose to listen you will have them for a long time unsold

Parrapaul · Dec 29, 2016

The card collecting market is as flat as a tack and isn't what it was years ago unfortunately

Dr Grange · Dec 29, 2016

There are also restrictions & conditions on this site. ie: less than 10 feedback on trading you have to send cards 1st once other person receives them they only pay for them then....

I'm listening but being offered $1000 for the lot is a joke i appreciate the heads up and will try to take on advice

Parrapaul · Dec 29, 2016

$6500 is very fair in the market and the way it is

Dr Grange · Dec 29, 2016

The market is flooded with 1968 & 1969 Scanlens over the last 5-6 years, so unless they are MINT or N/Mint they are not getting top $$$

intrepidarts · Dec 29, 2016

they are only worth what somebody is willing to pay for them mate -

That's what we have been trying to tell you!!! If you want to sell them you will need to list them at BIN & if prices to high they won't sell.
If you start auctions at realistic price you might sell them but you won't get what you are asking on here!!!!

intrepidarts · Dec 29, 2016

Nice chunk of cards.

I'm in the group who thinks the bulk sale mark is more around the $5k-$6k figure. Your retail figures in my opinion are about double the current market.

I also agree with others that there aren't too many collectors with that sort of cash looking for a bulk lot and I personally believe you would have more chance selling by splitting them down into smaller lots.

Good luck with the sale.

Cheers
Ross

Hi Ross thanks mate I agree some of the prices being asked on ebay are excessive but attainable i got the prices from the following links and then conservatively lowered my asking price to ensure the buyer is able to make money selling cards on i can't see how cards being on sold should be able to make $10k off me ....

Hey Craig,

Like Robbie suggests the sites you've linked to aren't a good example of real market value. The three sellers are very expensive.

I don't think you are too far off the mark with the $30 a card on the bulk lot for the 68 / 68B and 69 that you are selling them for but that is retail and IMO there is no on sell margin for any re-seller.

Where I think you are about $3k off the mark is with the 69 die cuts, They are a $75 average sell not anywhere near the $110 average you are selling them at and the near $200 retail you have quoted on them isn't likely to happen ever. The only real exception is Beetson which will go higher.

Hence why I suggest you split them from the massive $10k bulk lot you are asking as some lots may sell but not in a bulk lot with the mis-pricing of the die cuts.

Here's examples:

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Bob-Bola...279131?hash=item33c2e76e9b:g:Sd8AAOSwx2dYJ-ck
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Graeme-S...597179?hash=item4b0c298e3b:g:z-cAAOSwA3dYJ-WL
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/John-Pea...599373?hash=item4b0c2996cd:g:4cwAAOSwA3dYJ-Z7

All that said there is of course no harm in trying as the old saying goes "a fool and their money are soon parted".

Cheers
Ross
