maestro Posted September 1, 2021 Posted September 1, 2021 So I have been offered $340 (well €290 in EU) for The Tumbler. Straight sale, no eBay fees etc. I know there's a new version due in November. Should I hold off for better price or is this an ok deal? Thanks Quote
oneknightr Posted September 1, 2021 Posted September 1, 2021 Personally, I listed mine yesterday for $300 on Craigslist and Facebook Marketplace hoping for a quick sale. No bites yet. Quote
HandyHand Posted September 1, 2021 Posted September 1, 2021 I had two of the 2015 Tumbler sets and as soon as the rumors about a remake were becoming more reliable I put one of them up for sale. Sold it for €390 while others were still asking €400 or more for it. Guess I'll just have to build the other one myself now, since I can't sell it for any profit with the remake coming up soon. Quote

Thanks for the input. I have 2, will sell one and build other. Quote

All black, trans stickers on trans pieces, and very fragile pieces fall off if you touch it. I am hoping that with the new one that they made it more sturdy. 1 Quote

Agreed, it's cool looking, but I disassembled it shortly after the build. Quote

I've heard and read that multiple times before. That was mostly the reason why I haven't built it still until now. But with the new one coming out my chance for selling it with a good profit has flown. And when it's on display in a cabinet after finished building, the fragile nature of the set doesn't matter.

I will dump the lone one I have and get the new one for personal build. Appreciate it. 1 Quote

Maybe with new one coming out I might sell 2nd one. Quote
