price of a first edition model?

Post by Rayjbaker »

someone has a genestealer patriarch on seed throne model that i want to buy but have no clue what is a fair price. i know its rare and i can find very little info about the model online.
I go by standard rules unless we work something out in advance.
I will hold items with offers pending for one day before looking into other offers.
I will ship overseas and to Canada but will not ship first in those trades.
I respond to messages within one day of receiving them please do the same.

does it have the magus and familiar as well? If so $60-$80 depending on condition. If it doesn't have both about half the price then depending again on condition.

Average price I've seen on various boards etc and it's rarity. By all means offer what you want. Nothing is ever set in stone so to speak.

I didn't realize this kit originally came with a familiar! None of the ones on eBay come with one... none that I've found, at least.

I like to check "Completed Listings" on eBay when I have a question like this.
Ebay is an EXCELLENT example of what people will pay for this model (highest is $133, in this case:

60: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Warhammer-40-00 ... SwLF1YBTgD
47: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Genestealer-Pat ... SwU-pXq9l7
133: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Genestealer-Pat ... SwRLZUJLBD
91: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Rogue-Trader-Ty ... SwMgdXy5aC
91: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Rogue-Trader-Ty ... Sw-itXt9RY
36: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Genestealer-Pat ... SwaB5Xn~YL
25: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Genestealer-Pat ... SwV0RXp9Et
40: http://www.ebay.com/itm/WARHAMMER-40K-T ... SwgmJXw3-c

These run the range from assembled, painted and incomplete to unpainted, unassembled and complete. Whomever bought that last one practically stole it!

Yeah, whenever I'm pricing something I try to use ebay's sold section as a guide to get a sense of what's reasonable.

Thanks, that seems like a pretty fair price.

Crap. None of the ebay links have picks. I know I had that model way back when and sold it and the familiar for no where near that price. Maybe $20 shipped?

To be fair, those links are from Oct 2016. This is a bit of a thradomanced thread. LOL
Ebay only keeps that stuff around for so long.
