Comi shops may accept them, you listed the internet, and if you're crazy use flea markets. Listing them in the paper or such may work as well.

I think most people talking about selling their figures are planning to use either ebay or another popular Transformers site that still has a buy/sell/trade forum (TFW2005.com and allspark.com to name a few).

Some onine stores, such as http://www.bigbadtoystore.com, http://www.fortmax.com, or http://www.transformerland.com will also buy Transformer collections.

TFIEDS.com

it's the internet's classifieds

And don't worry, you'll fish out the scammers quick enough when someone in china is selling or buying Masterpieces for $15.

craigslist.org. It's basically on online yard sale that deals with people locally, so you can meet in town somewhere. I sell a lot of stuff there, and it's gotten me a lot of money.

TFIELD is actualy pretty good.

Craigs List is awesome, but Ebay is my most used.

And by the way, going to a collectors shop is like giving your figures away.

Agree..

"Ah.. a mint in sealed box Alternators Swerve.. well.. I can give you $15 for it, see.. I've already got a load of blue ones back here and they're hard to sell as well.. See, Actually, $15 is a good price for that since I'm selling the Tracks' for $10"

You don't sell them, you just put them in a box and mail them to me, and I will keep them safe from you forever

BBTS will buy Transformers. I sold my complete set of Alternators to them as well as my Dragonball Z stuff. The only set back is the tab is on you to ship the items to them.

I'd say ebay. Very happy with my sales there.

Does BBTS pay well or is it like a Video Game trade in store?

"So you brought this game for 60... week later... i'll give you 15. Good deal, your robbing us"

For me I thought it was a good deal reason being is I didn't want to try to sell each individual piece, I wanted to sell the whole lot. I got more than what I spent on my Alternators. But for the DBZ stuff it was about half of what I put out. But I can't complain BBTS is a great store and I would recommend them if wanted to sell to them and not deal with the hassle of evilpay.

True True.. I'm looking to buy myself a new car and my toys would sure make a good down payment if I could get at least a little bit of what they are worth. Right now, I'm just thinking about it because I would hate to sell them all and then get the urge to buy them all again.

I thought I might reget selling off my Alternators because of the G1 tie in, but I didn't reget it one bit. I just had to much stuff so I decided to sell.

I've taken my TFs directly to Transformerland.com. They won't offer as much as some other sites, but they're easy to work with.

I have been selling some of my stuff to BBTS...they will either give you cash or credit towards their online store. Usually, the credit is slightly higher than the cash. BBTS has been great to work with.

You are a strong individual then, I sold off all my GI JOES a couple of years ago and now regret it but not enough to make me buy them again. V1 bats are like 30 bucks now and at the prime of my collection, I had 20 complete BATS, Too rich for my blood

When I see these new joes..... I have to hold myself back or cover my face.
