    Best thing I can honestly suggest if find a local toy or comic show, and buy a booth there for a few dollars and sell stuff that way. That and ebay are how I have cleared out most of my collection.

    I hear ya buddy, I've started doing the same thing. I've tried selling locally but it's been mainly a bust (people are cheap as hell). I'm going to resort to eBay here pretty soon or just go to a local shop and sell them all together even though I know they won't give me much for anything.

    Have you tried seeing if Toy Dojo is interested?

    The thing is, you have to work your calculations like this. Half retail, and then half again for a bulk sale. So if you are selling in bulk, and you have MISB T30 Bumblebee, most people are going to give you $2.

    It's sad, but it's economics.

    Honestly, most of my stuff is not TF related. Got a ton of Marvel Legends to sell.

    20190524_140113.jpg I am all about unloading right now too. I am about to list auctions on Ebay, could careless about price.

    I went to the Dirt Cheap in Arlington today and saw this. Is this a good deal?

    Nope. That’s the retail price for this figure. No deal there.

    Wait a minute. That’s the wrong figure in the box. Did I just get pwned?

    It is one of the static hard plastic TF figures I mostly see at Walmart or Target in a display with Megs, Shockwave, Soundwave, etc. I tried looking online at Walmart but is it not listed. Should only cost a few dollars.

    I am listing stuff on eBay and realized I have a MIB Combiner Wars Victorion complete with box and mini poster (did not know it was in there). Was transformed once to robot mode (packaged in car mode) and briefly displayed. If anyone in Dallas wants it for fair price, send me a PM. I'd hate to list it without the box if someone locally wants it complete.

    EDIT - Victorion has been claimed

    Cedar Hill Target has a Siege Ultra Magnus. Still time to pair it with that toy promotion too.

    High, dunno how I feel about that. I want mostly deluxes and voyagers, and most likely not in the same wave.
    If a local target gets Springer and brunt, it's the only way I'd be able to take advantage of it

    That was my thought too, I found it hard to justify $50 on toys when they don't have anything I need right now...

    If I can find the 2 siege leaders I don't have (OP and Shockwave) and the Starscream then I'm gonna cash in on this deal. Need to get looking. Anybody know a place that has all 3?
