I would recommend splitting them up though as many folks already have one or the other
Your probably right on that.

I was shocked that I was not outbid... couldn't believe it.


That Fallout 3 Launch Kit i posted in found deals went for almost $200... amazing.

For some reason people on here talk about how crazy AC, Uncharted, and Bioshock collectors are but few mention the insanity that is Fallout

Case in point

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Fallout-3-Va...item1e7ab495a6

Unsealed Fallout 3 Pax hand puppet like that is worth 125 max imo and that's generous

The real valuable item in that listing to my knowledge?

The buttons, never seen those before

Random Fallout pax items go for absolutely insane amounts of money

I think was your competition.

Like I said..I thought about..but I was eating at Guapos (mexican restaurant) right then with some friends, so I was like forget it lol.

Congrats.

The real value there, and my reason for bidding, is that AC steelbook.
So rare!

Well when someone says "it is worth this much" and in the same breath says "can I buy this part from you"... you need to double check

Not that he was trying to low-ball me but when we want to buy something it is always worth less to us (as far as what we want to pay) then what it might really be worth. I do it too I'm sure.

Yeah, it's a natural reaction, I probably do it as well sometimes

"Ahh, *looks at $1000 item* ... I'd say it's only worth $500... are you selling ?"

I would believe $35-ish without shipping cost but I can't believe you were even trying to subtract seller fess.


We sell on PayPal here for the most part... even if it was $35 it would only be a couple dollars in fees, and even so you assume becasue the seller wont have to get those $2 in fees you should get the savings? Hmmm.


Anyways I would like to sell it as a whole but I will split it if I have to... I think this is worth more as a complete set then split up. At least to me it would be.

I'm not trying to have an arguement but when I am asked for a value I tell the person the amount they would get out of it as that's what they want to here
And once you subtract the 10% eBay and PayPal fees and the inertion fee then that's how I reach a value( I also did not include postage costs as that is a cost to the buyer but it is irrelevant of value), but I do feel we are somewhat going off the point somewhat
I could also say that the value to me is only 30 USD as that all I am willing to spend but I have one so that's not why I put 30 down
I do hope your not offended but if you are then I shall limit myself to not posting anything that anyone could find helpful or unhelpful in any way
Edit it may be worth more as a complete set but by complete do you mean seven steel books and seven necklaces and 10 mini flags or complete as in the bundle that already exists?
