That's the idea. The absolute rarity of these makes them almost impossible to obtain. These aren't something that any casual fan will ever own.Rated X wrote:Thats are cool collecters items my friend, but $15,000 ??? At the price of a car, I dont think anybody will be able to afford these...

I remember when you picked these up from eBay. Why the sell now?
And BTW, I love the set.

Even in my opinion, $15k is a bit too high. I mean, in the grand scheme of things. If I can remember, the most I've ever seen any transformer go for was in the low thousands area. I mean, there's currently an auction going on for a MISB Liokaiser giftset, and that's just starting to creep into the $1000 area. I'm pretty sure I've seen MISB Optimus and megatrons with high grades go for somewhere in the 4-5 thousand arena. When you're starting an auction at that extreme amount, are you really going to know the true market value? Really, the only way to do that is to have the auction start at .01 and see where it lands from there. Not that I've got a problem with how he's doing his auction mind you. When I do my auctions, I normally start an item at a price that I'm comfortable selling it for. Then again, I'm sure there are some extreme high end people with loads of money who aren't vocal in the community who drop the big money when the right item comes.
What other figures would you all say would come close to fetching near that dollar amount? Probably some of the other G2 protos I'd have to assume. Otherwise, to me, sealed (and I'd imagine graded) Dinoking giftset, sealed Black Zarak...perhaps some of the sealed Jap exclusive tapes or headmasters if you sold them as a group. I've got an AFA graded MISB Dai Atlas, and I know he's hard to find, but not sure on what level his rarity is compared to the others I listed.
