    Hoping to get advice on selling my MOTU collection... apparently like everyone else!

    Hey all,

    Joined the forum recently in hopes of finding some guidance on selling my entire MOTU collection... I've read through some of the threads and it seems like I'm one of thousands who have landed here seeking the same. I don't even know where to begin, but I reached out specifically to several "reputable vintage toy buyers" online and received some bids for the lot. After doing some more research, I've realized that piecing it out (Eternia by itself?) would make me the most cash but :time/effort x sales amount: is the formula I'm having trouble with. Not to mention the nostalgic joy I've been feeling just reading all these posts and getting all my old He-Man stuff together! Whisked me back to the early 80s with the quickness! Anyway, I'm just going to post a few pics of what I've got, hoping someone takes me pity on me and replies.

    Is there a reputable, updated MOTU pricing website? Or one or two that you all use to cross-reference? Appreciate any feedback or kind words of advice. I hope I did the attachments right! 1 DSCN1980_resize.jpg11 DSCN2249_resize.jpg12 DSCN2250_resize.jpg7 DSCN1960_resize.jpg2 DSCN1991_resize.jpg3 DSCN1998_resize.jpg4 DSCN2007_resize.jpg9 DSCN2107_resize.jpg13 DSCN2254_resize.jpg15 DSCN2316_resize.jpg

    Great looking collection. I do not believe there's a particular site that can give you pricing. These guys fluctuate a lot as well. Ebay prices can tell you as well as anywhere but you have to look it all up, piece by piece. Selling as a lot is fine until you factor in shipping, then it can get really expensive. there are guy here that can probably give you some good ranges though on what a lot like this would go for.

    Good luck with it!

    What town are you in? Sometimes that will affect the price, with possible pick up or local shipping.

    Thanks Dice, I'm crunching numbers on prices from a couple of different sites but it's a little overwhelming. Teaching myself Excel again, I don't remember it being this hard!
