I've been watching eBay somewhat to try and determine if it is worth

definitely is used). This eBay auction:

Suggests to me that I might as well keep the set and break it down for
parts. I don't think that was at all an outrageous price for those
parts, and there's easily at least another $10 worth of parts in my
book. Of course if I keep it, I may have more red lattice columns than
black (well, probably not, I have almost 80 black ones).

I would say that Blacktron1 got a heck of a deal on that lot. I don't follow
eBay all that closely any more, too many lots (C.F. "nobody goes there any
more, it's too crowded"), but if I had seen that I would have snapped it up.

I guess what I'm wondering is how many older sets are actually worth
putting together versus just selling the parts. It's beginning to look
like a set with unique parts is worth more than the full set<snip>.

You may be on to something there. But isn't that true of new sets too?
Properly broken up and sold, a Sith Infiltrator is worth more as parts than it
is whole.
