Good deals or not?

Postby Fragmare » Thu Oct 06, 2011 7:37 pm

I recently snagged some TFs on eBay for seemingly incredible prices. What do you guys think? Good deals or merely going rates?

G1 Jetfire (Complete and Vintage) - $38
G1 Astrotrain (Complete and Vintage) - $7.01
G1 Roadbuster (Complete except Range Finder and Vintage) - $76
G1 Dirge (Complete and Vintage) - $20.50
G1 Ramjet (Complete and Vintage) - $24.50
G1 Whirl (Complete and Vintage) - $35.00

wow, those are all real steals man! I have noticed that it's been easier to get some g1 toys a bit cheaper lately. i was thinking it might be due to a shift in demand, among some transfans, from g1 to classics/generation and/or masterpiece items that abound in today's tf marketplace.

Whirl = Damn you!!!!! :evil: (*ding* jelousy, 3rd floor!)

For a loose complete one it's between $250 and $300, IIRC.

Yea, I've noticed that after the DoTM hype died down and/or the college kiddies went back to school, the rates of G1 figures, in general, has went down. I've also noticed a drop off in the amount of TF stuff for sale overall. I'v had a G1 Bonecrusher for sale on eBay for like a month now. I'm practically GIVING the thing away and no one will buy it lol.
