I haven't bought any new sets of minis since Angelfire came out. I have a few minis left over from Harbinger-GOL and are wondering whats the best place to sell them. I'm going to get rid of most of my high value rares to hopefully fud a new PC upgrade. I'm thinking of Ebay but can't be bothered listing a heap of individual auctions due to postage and fees etc. I live in New Zealand which seemed to be one of the last places you could buy Harbinger which sold out middle of last year. The collection includes. Not a complete list as I have to sort through everything. This is just some of the more expensive toys I have.

2 Drizzt Drow Ranger
2 LRD
2 Zombie White Dragon (1 Bagged)
1 HRD
1 HGD
1 LSD
1 Drow Cleric of Lolth
1 Harbinger Mindflayer
1 Manticore
1 Orc Druid
1 Elf Pyromancer
1 Eye of Gruumsh
1 Gauth
1 Fire Giant
1 King Snurre
1 Owlbear
1 Cleric of Gruumsh
2 Hill Giants
2 Frost Giants
2 Drider Sorceror (both bagged)
2 Ogre Ravager
2 Ettin
2 Large Fire Elemental
4 Beholder
4 Orc Champions
10 Harbinger Wolf
20 Orc Warrior
10 Graycloak Ranger

edit - Moved to Marketplace as it now gone beyond simple advice...Zenako

I love seeing lists like this. 4 Orc Champions would be very nice to add to a collection.

Yeah I've checked Ebay auctions and prices on some of those minis are crazy. I've checked the completed auctions and even going with the minimum some of those minis sell for its quite impressive. Drizzt alone sells for $70-100.

Items like those would certainly sell on eBay. Just make sure that what you list for shipping and handling covers the actual cost of shipping plus your listing and expected final value fees.
You could always sell them in the marketplace section here.
I have found it easier to sell commons and uncommons as lots. You save on effort and can actually get higher values for some items that way.

Definately sell some of those rares as singles. Drizzt, Orc Champion, Beholder, Drow Cleric of Lolth, Gauth, etc. Commons and most uncommons best be sold in groups.

Get the Fire Elementals up ASAP. I have a feeling that War of the Dragon Queen will have a uncommon Semi Translucent Fire Elemetal which will make the price drop. The earth elemental prices dropped significantly once the new Earth Elemental was released.

At this point, this should probably be moved to the Marketplace...

Well I would move this to the market place thread and I would add some prices. Would be better then ebay as you will not have to pay anything to post.

So what are the costs you are looking for?
