I think your offer of a hundred in trade was WAY more than fair. People have to realize that the toy market fluctuates just like any antique or collectible. I know it’s hard to sell something for less than what you paid for it. We’ve all been there, all done it. Sellers need to realize this and not walk into a store with high expectations, unless of course you have an item that’s super rare or old that’s worth buco bucks

Neopixel is just the blade. It just means that there are LEDs going up the length of the blade. These are all 3rd party and are made relatively the same. Cost is generally between 200-250. The price is really determined by the the board in the hilt. Custom sabers can go from 5-$800 depending on what electronics are used. $100 is an ok aftermarket purchase price for you for this particular saber.

What do you do with all the figures that you deem not case worthy? I'd imagine you're going to have collectors and customers that don't care to spend a pretty penny for the mintiest figure but will be fine with some flaws at a cheaper price. I see vintage star wars bought all the time for people to customize/re-paint so I feel if at some point you have too many of X because can't get it's accessory or it's flawed maybe sell for those types of collectors?
