When I got that email, this bit at the beginning "More protection for your buyers" filled me with dread. It's just too easy to be scammed by buyers now so that didn't go down well for me. But it seems like eBay does have an end game in mind with the whole thing and we are probably not finished...

Hi, It's almost always a mistake to include valuations on static information pages (both books and web sites). Prices move all the time so you will quickly be out of date. And yes, you are right - prices can appear very inconsistent. That is just the nature of the hobby I'm afraid. If you feel...

Very collector specific your questions. For a lot of people, when they complete a challenge (like a full set of figures), they then turn their attention to another challenge like an MOC run, or go after some variant figures. The hunt seems to appeal to collectors more so than the acquisition for...

Looks like a good mix of stuff

There is a decent interview about it all here: https://viewer.joomag.com/antique-toy-world-interview-with-jeff-jacob/0292468001733778466/p2?short=

Glad you are finding it useful! Personally, I don't think the A-Wing pilot with that eyebrow details warrants anything extra, and should not detract any value either. And you are right - Star Wars Tracker does not provide a price guide for opened MOC cardbacks. As mentioned, you can probably do...

I run www.starwarstracker.com which has over 10 years worth of historical pricing across the world and various markets in addition to eBay. So it might help you find some reference pricing for things that are difficult to currently find on eBays rolling 90 day history window. It is a paid...

Thanks. I did not realize this was out there and in operation right now. I have read through it all and just done the checklist tool. I think there is a glimmer of hope for collectors selling personal possessions though. Not all collectors would be classed as this, but some of us definitely are...

I could not find any mention of this income reporting in the terms and conditions. Can you give a reference?

Really interesting move by eBay, and I wonder what has prompted this turn around of strategy for them. Where did you hear this out of interest? I wonder what percentage the buyer fee will be ...

Gawd I hated this thing, even when I first got it. My mum bought it for me and I'm sure that is how it went for anyone that ended up with it. I think all parents were sucked in by this image and imagined their own darlings the same way. There is no practical reason to be taking your figures to...

Ok, so I have just read through all T&C I could find. I can't find any reference to a £1,500 limit anywhere. So all this bit I put above can be classed as fake news until otherwise proven. I always like to understand how businesses make money, so here is my take now. eBay now charges for...

I'm glad this is being asked - I wanted to post a similar question. From what I have seen others say (but I have not verified this myself in the T&Cs), it seems 100% free for the seller here in the UK if the item sells to another address in the UK. If it sells to the US for example, then fees...

Looks like a very nice example to me. As for the yellowing, perhaps sunlight light and temperature play a part. But if that's true, then I'll also add that "being kept in the dark" turns bubbles yellow too! The majority of my MOC have been stored in a dark closet for 20 years and most of the...

Yes, exactly. Going by your definition and price range - "decent one" would equate to something in the 80-90 percentile band (line up 10 examples, and it would be as good or better than the other 8). There are clearly some outliers here. Some for no good reason (drunk bidding?!?), but others...

I never track prices for incomplete figures, there is little point. So above is for complete, original weapon examples. The screenshot above is also non-graded data. A graded search would yield much higher costs (also possible with the app)
