pricing opinion

hi, i came across a seller offering the following:

japanese masterforce pretender C-200 lander (landmine)
japanese masterforce pretender C-201 metalhawk

it seems that both are MIB C9+ complete with all paperwork, stickers unapplied no yellowing or damage on toy or box, but enclosed is a photo of the actual item so judge by yourself

metalhawk is a japanese-only pretender, and (apparently) lander is a mailaway exclusive in japan limited to 3000 pieces
http://heroicdecepticon.blogspot.com...exclusive.html

$600 for both, should i go for it? thanks in advance

Re: pricing opinion

I've seen Metalhawk's in that condition go for over $600 by himself so it sounds like a good deal to me.

Re: pricing opinion

Again depending on condition metal hawk boxed usally starts aroud 300 while lander around 90 as a starting point being that metal hawk was a Japan only release and to find one now complete (usally the little wing guns, sword and helmet are the missing pieces) your not getting any deal but the price is a reasonable one (top end) for these two pieces

Unless you can point to specific sales, completed or otherwise your prices don't count for much...

It sounds good in theory...

I bet you would have a very hard time showing us those figures in the specified condition for the prices listed.

Re: pricing opinion

Considering this just when for about $550 itself and with less items than what's offered to you, I said go for it if you can and want it.
