ebay is probably your best bet. But TMNT prices tend to be all over the place sometimes.

ebay wasn't liking me today so it would error whenever I did a sold search so I guess I'll check again tomorrow.

I have a question. I had an item of mine stolen from a friends house about a month ago. The item was then sold on ebay and the buyer contacted me, as the item had my contact information available on it.

How do I find out who sold it?
Can I make a claim to eBay even if I'm not involved?

I would file a police report first in order to establish a record, and contact eBay directly to explain the situation. Police report is crucial though. The goal is to prove that the item on eBay is the same item in the police report.

Newly sculpted Shredder with different articulation & details, cape, removable helmet, & more. Much better than the original release.

So, a couple of months ago I decided to start collecting vintage turtles and have bought lots of 'em!! I'm looking to get a complete collection but have also been buying doubles of some figures to make customs.

My question is this: I bought a couple of extra Slash figures for customizing purposes and one of them has a bright yellow belly with a purple belt that has a red S on it. It seems that this figure is possibly more rare than others?! Anyone know the value of this guy? He's in really decent shape with only minor paint wear (no accessories besides the belt). I'd hate to butcher this guy for custom purposes if he's 'more valuable'.

It's not valuable to the point where you'd wanna sell it off right away, but it is enough that thinking about someone chopping it up for fodder hurts my soul.

Good enough!! I'll reconsider using him as custom fodder! Thanks Powder, I don't want your soul to ache! (hee hee)

He is the "most valuable" Slash. Most valuable to least valuable:

1. Bright yellow belly, purple belt, red S

2. Mustard yellow belly, purple belt, red S

3. Mustard yellow belly, purple belt, yellow S

4. Mustard yellow belly, Black belt

(edited to include all 4 variants)

Not sure if this is a dumb question:

I have a 1992 Channel 6 Newsvan MISB that I got off Ebay, but the box flap is open on one side because the packaging tape dissolved (it wasn't ripped off or anything). This was described in the listing, so I knew beforehand. It doesn't appear anything was removed from the box and all of the contents remained untouched.

If I resealed the box flap with a new piece of scotch tape, would that decrease its value or authenticity? Just wondering if this has happened to anyone else before.

Technically the news van is only considered mib because the tape has disolved on oneside. If u re tape it , in my opinion, ur harming the value.

Tape of a certain age should have a distinct tone, and new tape will obviously be noticeable in terms of brightness. I'd complain to the seller that it was not as described and ask for approximately a 50% refund. That said, always proceed with caution.

As for the Norway toy catalogs, I would guess in the EUR 5-10 range based on typical catalogs from that era, though due to little knowledge of confirmed value, it could be higher.
