Just need some advice on selling these. I've tried selling them at local toy shows and they move, but mostly cuz I sell em for like a buck or two a piece. But, is there a better avenue to sell? Is ebay a better idea? Or maybe starting a B/s/t thread here?
Just looking for some input. They're mostly just taking up space |

eBay, there will be a wider base of collectors and resellers there from all around the US that will bid. It'll probably be difficult to find someone who will take the entire lot off your hands here. Not sure why a thread asking how you should sell something is needed....

You're not going to make too much money selling them. With eBay, you may be able to sell a big lot of them for $20 or $30, but you'll be paying plenty in eBay fees.

Thought maybe a group of marvel fans might have a better idea or suggestions on the way to go. EDIT: and sorry, just remembered something. I did try and sell these on ebay awhile back. As one big lot. But, shipping ended up costing more than the buyer paid for the lot so he backed out. Smaller lots maybe? individual? By team? (ie; Gen X, X-men 2099 etc..) |

Try seeing if there are any charities in your area that accept toys and distribute them directly to children who will play with them, like a home for little wanderers, orphanage or children's hospital.

Agreed. Donate them and let some kids enjoy them for what they are - toys. They won't care if they're collectible or not, and you'll score major karma points. Hell, if you can prove to me that you actually donated all of them, I'll mail you a free MU Apocalypse action figure.

these things are most liekly worth zilch if you ca only get rid of em for a buck. The 90s iron man cartoon figures ive seen go for more money. I agree the sentiment for the charity thing.
