Appraising your TMNT collection: How much is yours approximately worth? - Page 2

*Spitfire* · 09-23-2012, 02:55 AM

Probably around 10 to 15 thousand. Before you ask I'm far from rich.

*Slade* · 09-23-2012, 10:22 AM

Just an estimated average of things.

$40 in DVDs
$174 in comics
$214 in toys

Collection is not that big, have a commission that hasn't been done yet. Kinda thinking I want that $428 dollars back.

Considering my entire TMNT collection consists of the four Nick Turtles and a Classics Mikey, not much.

other than being a super cool little piece of tmnt history, i doubt it would fetch any thing on the market. though it's sentimental value is priceless.

*flies little plane over head*

I do believe that was quite the rhetorical question.

I went through a period in my life where I gave away a LOT of my old stuff. So I no longer have any old comics or toys from the 80s or 90s. I did this because I was moving across the country and wanted to keep light on my possessions.

I sometimes miss a lot of those old items, but I don't regret what I did.

I have started a new collection though. Only Nick stuff so far (well, and the classic turtle figures just released)

Current value of all TMNT stuff combined: around $250

The things you own end up owning you. That is one of my mantras. So, I will be keeping my merch buying at a minimum.

Going by pretty much strictly ebay I'd say $250.00 - $300.00

My first collection of turtles sold for a little over 3k and that was a steal. i sold because i needed money for my dogs medical bills. It was a big decision to sell but it needed to be done. I figured I could always collect them again. Now that I'm back to collecting!!! If I sold all my current carded figures, seeing as that's what I mainly collect for 10$ each, i would have 2350. But that's at 10$ a fig and I have many that are worth 2-15 times that. I don't plan on stopping anytime soon so that number is going to keep going up(hopefully). Other miscellaneous stuff is probly around 3-400. And my artwork that I do is worth whatever someone would pay for it. All in all I'm happy with my collection.

I'd do the same for my dogs.
