Hi folks,

I've stumbled across these unbuilt 1/32 Cox slot cars. Cheetah and GT both still sealed with decal sheet as well as promo leaflet.

As I'm not much of a "unbuilt" collector I'm thinking of selling these again.

Where would be the best sites to market these and what would be a reasonable price for seller as well as buyer?

Any comments welcome and appreciated.

I am keen on the Cheetah kit. Once you get a price in mind please PM me and we can discuss terms.

Regards,

John

PS: As for a marketplace... this forum is a good place to start.

Probably can find some history on eBay.

Forget fishing around for prices. They are only worth what someone is willing to pay for them. Put them up for best offer.

I see you fishing on Facebook as well. Just put it up here for best offer. Most Facebook pages make you list a price.

Hey Joe, thanks, did not know I was allowed to advertise something to sell on the blog. I totally agree that something is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it but I was hoping of getting a ballpark figure because I might decide to rather keep them.

Thanks for the comment anyways.

Marius,

These kits are undesirable and have little value. :rolleyes: But I am willing to give you $25 each. :whistle3:

Better yet, post a link to the auction.

Even though they are 1/32, I would list under 1/24 pre-'70 only because it gets more traffic.
