   Howdy-

I’ve been out of the LEGO loop for a while & want to turn some of my old sets into cash. What’s the recommended outlet for doing so these days...eBay or another source? Is there any accepted pricing guide to use as a rule of thumb for set values? Pretty much all of these sets are in great shape, include instructions, & don’t have boxes.

I made a list of my sets that I figured would be worth more & did some rough searching on eBay for completed & in-process auctions & compiled some rough values for what the sets seem to be worth, so I can focus my efforts on the ones that make the most sense. If anybody has any feedback on how reasonable these prices seem, or wants to make me an offer, I’d very much appreciate a quick e-mail to dante@infernolab.com.

Thank you very much! -Jason

Hi Jason,

Before you list on eBay or even agree to sell your sets privately I suggest you investigate AuctionBrick and BrickLink.

I think some of your sets are undervalued and if you want to take the time to do the research you can get more for them. For instance the price guide for the London Bus on BrickLink shows it’s worth way more than $7. In addition both AuctionBrick and BrickLink are run by people in the LEGO community, cost less than eBay to sell on, have auctions for if you don’t want to set a fixed price, and you are more likely to sell your LEGO to appreciative AFOL’s! :-)

Hope that helps some--

Maggie C.
