Sideshow Figures

So I was just looking online for Sideshow Figures (I have a full set of the 40th Anniversary edition ones that I'm thinking of selling) so am looking for rough pricing guides, and came across this set.

The question is, are they really worth THAT much? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/JAMES-BOND-SIDESHOW-40TH-ANNIVERSARY-DOLLS-VERY-RARE-FULL-SET-/272092498492?hash=item3f59fa0a3c:g:DloAAOSwKtlWhrur

I wouldn't have thought so...that seems quite steep...would be lovely if they were though ;%

I thought the same. What's everyone's opinions on a realistic valuation for the set as shown in the link then? Individual figures such as "Q" seem to command strong money whereas some of the others don't

It's been awhile since I tracked the price of these...most seemed to go fairly cheaply back then - between £10 and £20...with the obvious exceptions...I'd just trawl eBay to see what you can find -{

They're a bit higher than that but -- with the exceptions (as noted) of Jaws and Q -- generally at or a little below their original retail price. That listing price is crazy; not long ago I bought almost the whole series as a single lot for something like $500.

Thanks for the clarification...perhaps I saw the most common (least wanted) ones go through at that price...but it was a few years ago... -{

Yes, characters like Zao don't fetch much. I should note that £10-20 is generally fair for a loose figure, a bit more if all the accessories are present.
