I paid, what I considered, a market busting £150 for an absolutely mint one with a really nice (yep, they do exist) price sticker on it about 9 or 10 months ago.
Given the litho damage (yes, almost certainly cause by bubble shift during sealing) I'd say Carl is in the right ballpark, but you just never on an auction on Jabba's or ebay. If I was going to sell at a fixed price I'd ask £150 and see what happened. Would like to see one of these in open auction. The only other Palitoy ERG option is the Trilogo and that's very silly money.

Yes, maybe an open auction might be a good bet but it always depends on right timing as I've seen in the past where a MOC can go, for example, £200 and then a few weeks later it can go to £250 - £300. It all depends on demand and catching people at the time they most want it.

Very true. And when you’ve figured that out let me know
