Here is my inventory situation: I have bought most of my sets on sale or clearance. I had a Bricklink store as well as selling on eBay. The sets I bought on clearance, then resold for profit, was intended to "finance" the pieces for MOC and the sets (...) (16 years ago, 22-May-08, to lugnet.market.appraisal)

(...) Some very good observations and points. A set only has a value if someone wants to buy it. To sell a substantial collection at one time would probably be impossible. If the collection is large, few people would have the money at one time to (...) (16 years ago, 14-May-08, to lugnet.market.appraisal)

(...) Very different, yes. Mostly because selling the collection as a whole attracts almost nobody as buyers. You won't find many people willing to shell out thousands of dollars for an entire AFOL collection. (...) I'm not sure if that's (...) (16 years ago, 14-May-08, to lugnet.market.appraisal)

I believe that because I am not in a selling position, that an overall collection has a different value than (...) (16 years ago, 14-May-08, to lugnet.market.appraisal)

(...) If you figure that gold is selling at about $660 a troy ounce, and I'd say that it would take at least 2 troy ounces to make a minifig and probably more; that would put a solid gold minifig well above $1000.00, and probably closer to $2000.00.

I heard that there was recently a white minifig hair piece (female, pigtails) in auction. I think it was on eBay. Does anyone know how much it went for? How can I look up stuff like past auction results? -Suz (19 years ago, 24-Jul-05, to lugnet.market.appraisal)
