Re: Giant $15,000 Transformer Lot
no for me, I'm not a G1 guy even I did watch all the transformers back in 80s.
I prefer the modern version of same characters over G1 toys.

Re: Giant $15,000 Transformer Lot
I grab the odd G1 piece every now & then, but always loose (didn't keep the packaging as a kid, etc)
some of them are cool; ironically most are the safest to allow kids to play with - indestructible et al

Re: Giant $15,000 Transformer Lot
That reminds me of the Pawn Stars show (I think) that had a collector looking to sell his whole collection. He wanted some crazy amount like this, but they offered him, I think, $5,000.
While nice, the heyday is over for selling large collections like this at high prices. Especially as a lot. To get that price he'll have to piece it out, and hope. As a lot he won't get that asking price. It seems only a small portion of the lot is complete in box, and those would be the money makers. The graded ones would do well, but it would take a lot of time, and effort, to get this unloaded by a buyer. Unless they were actually looking to get a whole collection for their own collection.
Too bad because he isn't that far away (Belleville area)

Re: Giant $15,000 Transformer Lot
That price seems too high for what appears to be several incomplete items. Some are complete and even graded maybe but from a quick look it seems most are loose and missing parts.

Re: Giant $15,000 Transformer Lot
A cursory evaluation of this collection indicates a distinct value.
I'd say $15,000 is fair, less the time to parse through it all.
If I could get away with it, I'd offer $12,000. But that's me. And, I can't get away with it right now -- no space... or extra $$.

Re: Giant $15,000 Transformer Lot
To me. Part of the fun in collecting is the journey buying a used lot isn't fun.

Re: Giant $15,000 Transformer Lot
Nah, I don't think it's worth 15 grand. Most of it isn't even packaged. If they're trying to sell a lot of it, going to a con and selling it there would make more sense. Dividing it into smaller lots and selling each lot on Ebay might work too.
