I have a ton of Star Wars action figures (Power of the Force) that I used to collect as a kid, and I can not seem to find a site that offers how much they are actually worth. I’m interested in selling my entire collection, and I don’t want to list it over priced or under priced. Most of sealed in package, and are excellent condition. I used to look through toyfare magazine back then, but can not find a website for that either.
thank you!
I would consult a price guide. I linked a guide that I have found very helpful in the past. They have a pretty large section of action figures, and I definitely remember seeing power of the force in there. The book has been released in multiple editions, although the one that I have used was a third edition. You can either buy it off the Amazon site, or go to your local library or bookstore. A library will likely have something similar. They have the fifth edition at Barnes and Noble, so I would definitely try there.
I would not reccommend looking it up on ebay. Sure, ebay gives you a good idea for prices, but the starting bid for that kind of thing could be anywhere from 99 cents to 20 dollars. Looking the action figures up in a collector’s book is probably your best bet for their worth. Based on the collector’s books I’ve seen, POTF tends to run about $8-$10, depending on the figure and its rarity. They could have varied a little bit since it was published, but the collectors books I mentioned are pretty recent.
One more thing: If you are looking to sell, I wouldn’t try and sell all of them in one ebay post. Most people are looking for individual toys to complete their partial collection, not start a collection. And although it may seem like selling all of them at once will get you more money, selling them individually allows you to charge more. (Ex: Is it cheaper per roll to buy 1 paper towel roll, or a 24 pack of paper towels?)
you could go to a pawn shop or to ebay something in that matter

the best thing you could do is let people know that you have them. when the right people know, they will want them and will offer to buy them. try using a blog, or ebay, or something.

Not only check ebay…. search for you items and then look under "completed auctions" That way you can see what people PAID for like items. It is better to know what people paid for them than what people are asking for them.
