I’ve sold a number complete sets of figures together (expensive and rare ones like your example - for example a whole complete set of Palisades Invader Zim figures, or ninja turtles sets, etc, and sold figures that were up at $800-ish mark).
>>10974388>I know i'll get more money for the full set of 5If you are selling the whole set together, be prepared for them to be listed for a long time before they actually sell, like 1+ years or more.
Selling together has the benefit of getting rid of them all at once, but the drawback that only someone who is looking for a full set will buy them, and they’re at a way higher price point.
I actually tend to find (and I do it when I'm selling) that selling a whole set together is a bit cheaper then selling them individually, for example if each individual fig is $100 (so $500 for a set of 5) you would probably sell as a set for $90 each, i.e. $450.
...Just find out what the sold for price of each fig is (always go by the “sold for” price of recently ended listings, not what people are actively listing them for) then plus all 5 figures together, then chop off $10%.
>>10974388>but i feel like packaging them/shipping them is gonna cause some issues. Do i bite the bullet and box all 5 up in a big box or stay safe and sell them separately?If the figures you’re selling are the 2005 My Chemical Romance figures that I'm seeing on google images, they don’t look like they’ll take up too much room, I’ve sent way, way bigger boxes in the mail without issue.
The important thing (for something that's $1,000+) is make sure you get extra coverage, not just tracking with a signature, but also postal insurance to the value of the figures, if the thing goes missing in the post you want to get all your money back.
-In general, take heaps of good quality pics, of the figs and any imperfections in the packaging, explain how they've been stored (on display or in storage away from light or a mix). Hope that helps.
