    Hi
    I have an unopened series 2 master case, 2 unopened cases (12 packs) and a couple of opened packs. Are these worth anything? I tried looking on ebay but couldn't find any. Bought these a few years ago and been just sitting on em

    they're probably worth more opened...cuz then you know what you're getting...but you might find someone who wants to buy them sealed...

    series one is definately worth more...but i'd hit locustreign and work a deal with him...otherwise ebay away...i'd sell the master case by itself, then the other two cases by themselves, and the opened in a small lot, unless they are opened variants...

    I've seen a bunch of people asking for them every now and then but they really need to be opened so you can tell people what you're selling. Your best bet might be to open them up and sell them in batches, one of each main figure, aside from the chase figures (Jazz, Magnus, Bluestreak) which would sell on their own easily. The trick is Wave 2 has some of the bigger characters, Prowl, Megatron, Optimus, but it also has Red Alert and Thrust which were duds as far as reselling.

    I bought a series 2 case 5 months ago for $45.
    You can resell each figure $5-10 separately if you want to make a dozen separate sales for $20-30 profit or you could probably ask $60 BIN for a sealed case.

    A Master Case (4x12 packs) is going to be worth a ton, because someone is GUARANTEED to get both chases, all the rares, and a metric ton of commons. Once upon a time, I bought a master case of wave 1 and a master case of wave 2...I opened each box, documented the results, and sold/traded most of them off, just keeping some for my own collection.

    [​IMG]

    An individual unopened box might go for less, certainly not as much as Series 1, but should still fetch a very high price... You might be better off opening the boxes, confirming the characters, and selling them individually, but if you want less work, just sell the entire box...someone will take a gamble, I'm sure.

    I think there in demand as of late so Ebay might be the best bet.
