Did I pay too much for the collection?

no, i wish i had that luck! You should be able to make back the money easily, I think you should be able to get your estimated amount.

No that's easy money. You could actually take apart all of those vehicles and just sell the parts individually and make a killing not to mention the huge pile of individual figures, some of which were actually worth a good amount and the rest were 10 bucks a piece all day long even without any weapons. That's like a five or six hundred dollar box of GI joes if you part it out and sell it

[@irishfanrock3494]

I hate when people at yard sales and flea markets wanna quote eBay prices. I always say well we aren't online. They don't wanna talk about ebay fees all the research time it takes to clean them and take pictures and list them and then pack them and ship them. I got a big lot of a couple vehicles about 40 figures and about 100 weapons and parts for 5 bucks at the local goodwill. I'm in the process of going thru them all and looking them up and it's a long process.

[@pickingandpunching]

I couldn’t of said it better myself. People also forget that they will have to claim those sales for their taxes as well. I can’t tell you how many people that I have had that same exact conversation with. It’s frustrating. Thanks for watching. Keep on grinding!

[@Journeyman107]

How the heck do you find Joe's at thrift shops. There's never any Joe's when I go to any of them

[@antonmassopust568]

That's a pretty good price you should have picked up some of the comic books there was a spidey super stories in there anything to do with Spider-Man outside in media besides Marvel where he makes an appearance to help kids learn how to read is always good to pick up those Comics are worth a lot of money now

[@pickingandpunching]

I actually did pick up a couple of the comics from him. Spider-Man stuff always does great for me.

[@billkendall5526]

I cant wait till they start to reissue 1980's Gi Joe with the O-rings. Because its coming. Just take a look at the Transformers Universe.

[@pickingandpunching]

That would be awesome!

[@sequoia1171]

Dude when you first started digging through that box of GI joes and removed the second bag directly under that bag was a version 1.5 hawk figure, worth easily 50 bucks complete.

[@pickingandpunching]

We ended up selling off most of the figures and made some money off them.

[@DAMac-lq2dl]

Those Joe’s are a solid pick up.

[@pickingandpunching]

Thanks man! We ended up piecing them out.

[@drpep79]

As a joe collector and seller, you killed it. From what the video shows depending on the condition, you should get back almost up to 3 times what you paid for it. Depending on what was in the lot.

[@pickingandpunching]

Thank you! We did ok on them. It was more of us paying for our education. I had a lot of fun going through them all. The vehicles were in rougher shape than I original thought. We still made some money on them all. Thanks for watching!

[@drpep79]

Hey man, I just watched your video again and had to comment on what I picked up a couple of weeks ago. Had a guy post on Facebook marketplace he wanted to get rid of a box of joe stuff from the attic and had 500 on the lot. From the pics, I asked him if he didn't sell it would he let me come pick through it and he agreed. Long story short, I opend the box and there was a lot of randomness. I asked if 80 bucks would do it and he agreed. Got it back home and my mind was blown. Most everything was complete and unbroken. Talley it up and around 1500 in value. If and when I sell that gentleman will be getting a call to let him know I owe him money. Thanks again and love you're videos!!

[@l.greenemachine66]

That Spider-Man door handle was cool!

[@pickingandpunching]

I thought so as well. He actually threw it in for free before I left.

[@dougiehits1938]

You did okay on the Joe’s - only issue is that if you piece them out (a lot of time) they will sell slow for good profit. If you bundle them you should double your money and move off them fast - less profit though

[@pickingandpunching]

Sometimes I’m ok with the amount of time it takes to piece items out. Going through one by one will really help to increase my knowledge on the GI Joes. This is what I like to call “Paying for an education”

[@melaniehoback6476]

Absolutely hate it when someone agrees to a price and then regrets it and starts rifling through what they’re trying to sell! To me that’s going back on your word.

[@pickingandpunching]

Yea, it’s def frustrating when that happens. It sucks when it’s an item you really want as well. Then you are stuck between a rock and a hard place.

[@propanepiff3506]

​@pickingandpunching I'd just tell em the frank stands open amd move on lol

[@Finraen]

I don't like it on that end, but if some of these Joes were from his childhood and he had some idea of the value then I have to feel for him. It's tough to let it go even if you know you need to and you can't be picky about the price you're charging. It's just a tough mental wall that's more than just the value estimation... there's intangible / sentimental value you have to wrangle with.

Hard to say if you paid too much, looks like a ton of figures that could bring some good money. Saw a Redskin's cup. I wonder what the market is for that with the teams name change.

Sports market is highly depended on the teams performance. Washington’s team is currently in disarray. There are some hardcore fans but there stuff just isn’t really moving right now.

I have been collecting 80's G.I. Joe's, TNMT, and Heman toys since around 2006. It is really hard to say if you paid too much or not as I did not see everything you bought. What I did see didn't really scream Big $, however a very small piece of rare plastic can go for a lot so you might have a very hard to find or rare piece or two or three that you could profit from.

[@pickingandpunching]

There wasn’t any major high end figures in there. We did find a bunch of $10 plus figures. We won’t get rich or lose money. This is what I call “paying for my education”
