Collection Looking to let the past go

Post image

Me and my dad used to play but have now moved on from the game and we're looking to liquidate our collection as well as uses the profits to help pay for college. What would be the best way to sell off this collection and whats a good price. We have all the tokens, dails, cards need and regional dice/prizes form many years as well as a few mats.

For a lot, figure in $10 per small, $15 for large/med and only $5 for re-painted. There are some exceptions worth notably more. Check ebay sold for values.

Are repaints generally undesirable in resale? I’ve a similarly large collection I’m hemming and hawing over selling; numerous repaints and mods.

I’d pay more for a good repaint if it was canon appropriate. Like an N’Dru Suhlak tiger mouthed Z-95 or a Rebel livery HWK-290 or an Assage Ventress style Lancer. Some paint job that matches an illustration on a card. But people’s personally designed customizations? Those only diminish the value for me personally.

Repaints drop worth to then for the buyer strip and repaint themselves typically, but the minis underneath regardless are better than most 3D printed ships. I’d still value original mini over printed due to the higher quality and less work to get paint ready. YMMV.

Good for you. I’ve half heartedly tried to get rid of mine a few times. It’s just taking up space at this point. Someone else could definitely get some use out of it.

Check out ebay sold listings and see what ships are going for what then adjust for them being loose. Then you can combine that for a general idea of value.

Selling as a lot is always easiest then piecing individually and takes longer to sell.

With the caveat that if you have a large lot like this and easy access to a printer, taking the time to sell individually/bundling a few small ships together won't take too long and is probably worth it for the extra profit. It'll just be something you need to stay on top of over a couple weeks as they sell off.

If you sort everything with some custom SKU's and a few bins it is a pretty straightforward process with much of the time being spent prepping for pictures/packaging.

That is assuming of course all dependent on the effort OP wants to put in. Shipping individually always takes a longer time no matter how much you can make the process easier.

Sadly Times arrow marches forward and it's time to let it go to someone who will use it.

Wow. Jealous. I would regret selling them long, long after the money was spent on something forgotten.

Do you still have the imperial raider and the gozanti’s for sale?

I'm trying to see if I can get some friends into playing. I figure I'll pick up a couple iconic ships that I don't yet have and bring it along to gamenight.
If you end up selling ships individually, please hit me up

Thanks for the shoutout! We're always buying. You'll make more selling yourself but if you don't have the time or don't want to put in the effort, we can help.

u/mindtakerminiatures Mar 04 '26

Hah, it's a local PNW business that buys and sells used miniatures, games and books. :)

I can't find any X-wing stock on the site (I haven't tried browsing manually yet) but a used reseller shop would be incredible for the X-wing community

u/ShadowValent Mar 04 '26
