Scissorino Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 Any ideas how much this fig may go for on ebay or the like? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scissorino Posted August 6, 2013 Author Share Posted August 6, 2013 For example, is this realistic as an expectation, or an anomaly: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/LEGO-NINJAGO-70504-GENERAL-KOZU-MINI-FIGURE-BRAND-NEW-/161051404335?pt=UK_Construction_Toys_Kits&hash=item257f69682f (this is a finished auction) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest eightbrick Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 On eBay, his last couple sales have been from 3-12 dollars alone, averaging around 6 dollars. http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=lego+general+kozu&_in_kw=1&_ex_kw=&_sacat=0&_okw=&_oexkw=&_adv=1&LH_Sold=1&_udlo=&_udhi=&_samilow=&_samihi=&_sadis=200&_fpos=&_fsct=&LH_SALE_CURRENCY=0&_sop=12&_dmd=1&_ipg=50&LH_Complete=1 On Bricklink, he is selling for a lot more, with the average selling price being $13.16 http://www.bricklink.com/catalogPG.asp?M=njo074 Good luck whether you are planning to sell or buy! EDIT: Oops, sorry about that didn't see you were in the UK. The UK equivelent of 6 dollars USD is 3.91, and of 13.16 is 8.57. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scissorino Posted August 6, 2013 Author Share Posted August 6, 2013 I have one to sell, seems like there are many more selling in the US, but was wondering why there seem to be so few on the secondary market in the UK. I guess he's from a 2013 set and most kids want to hang on to him? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Hong Kong ones all seem to be replicas/customs/non-Lego fakes made of PVC?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scissorino Posted August 6, 2013 Author Share Posted August 6, 2013 Wondered whether doing him in a lot with a scout and a swordsman would go down well - probably could do a separate lot for those two figs though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest eightbrick Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 The Hong Kong ones all seem to be replicas/customs/non-Lego fakes made of PVC?! Yes. I was recently in Hong Kong and quite common there, especially in touristy areas are these "BELA" rip offs. They sell set copies of Ninjago, Chima and some other stuff. I purchased a Chima raven glider by BELA to compare to the real and the quality isn't that good (I'll post a blog article on this soon). The fakes are not good indicators of value, if you bargain with the people selling them in HK you can get the price really low (for example, that raven glider I bought was for 50 HK dollars... about 7 dollars US or 4 pounds - and I wasn't even bargaining that hard).

I find it crazy that they go to the trouble of making them only to sell them for such a low price. Can't stand any Lego rip-offs! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL HK is like a breeding ground for fake stuff. Fake beats for 20 bucks, fake Polo shirts for 7 bucks, fake Ninjago minifigures for a couple bucks... it's crazy! They even went to the trouble of replicating, but not exactly copying, the picture on the front of the box. I'm assuming that allowed them to pass through some sort of copyright loophole... other than the BELA symbol instead of the Lego one, the boxes look pretty much identical.

Scissorino Posted August 16, 2013 Author Share Posted August 16, 2013 Didn't get that much for it in the end, only around Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
