I wish you luck on the sale. I have never seen one sell that high though.

Good luck mate, how much were they new, £50?  I'd get in touch with that bloke who offered you £200 and bite his hand off  :icon_w00t:

£250? But it's not even painted yet.

That is one of the main reason why I am putting him at £250.00.

I payed £150.00 for him and he was in a mess I had to take him apart and then clean him up Be for I cud put him back to how he is now and it took me a long time.
(he had think NOT nice Supper glue all over him.)

I was watching one this time last year it was in the USA and it went for $879.77US dollars all it had on it was red paint.

I was thinking a PRO Painter might buy it then Paint it up then sell it on for a lot more money.

I do not want to put it on Ebay as sum kid may win it and make a mess of a cool miniature.

Put it on Ebay and see if you can make the money you want. It is a blank canvas and you are right that someone may want to go for it.

yup, ebay.  put a low starting price and a high reserve to see what the market will bear.  I'm sure it will naturally price itself out of the "some kid" category pretty quickly.

Haven't seen one of these up for months, so you might score if there's anybody left who wants one and doesn't already have one.

to be honest i think you're kidding yourself expecting that sort of price!

there was a winged netherlord that went for 80.00 not long ago.  i think at 200+ you are up against super-rare collectors items and the heresy netherlord as good as it may be just is not in there. 

you could buy 2 or 3 GW spined dragons for that price or a seriously nice bit of GW prime.


i think your best bet is to dismantle it and strip the primer off then you can sell it for the collectable -untouched market.

as others have said, if you can find that guy who offered you 200 for it, go bite his hand off. :icon_ermm:

It went for £53.  I cant see you getting £250 for that mate, not even in a decades time when its very OOP.  Kegox the Kevin Peat Dragon only goes for £100 max and thats a rare and very sought after item.  Occasionally a figure will go on Ebay for far more than its worth, I've seen figures still available from GW go for 4x their rrp value as the people bidding were unaware they're still available, it doesnt mean they are worth that amount.  I've seen a standard Dwarf drummer reach £15 and every other time they only go for £2 max.  Just cos something sells at a high price doesnt automatically give it that value, something is worth only what someone is willing to pay for it.  If you can hold out I'd advertise it on some other sites for a while to see what offers and feedback you get but I honestly cant see you getting over £100 for him, I hope I'm wrong !!!!
