The $10,001 includes what I took in for shipping. If you take away the $920 I received for the movie poster, it comes out to over $66 an item. I would say the average shipping cost per item is less than $10.

I think I’ve shown some of these sold items before. This is not all 138 items, just some highlights.



Paid $1


Paid $5


Paid $20


Paid $50


Paid $4


Paid $1


Paid $3


Paid $50


Paid $10 - sold in three lots for total of $175 ($60, $60, & $55)


Paid $1


Paid $5 - Look at the shipping!!!


Paid $1


Paid $75


Paid less than $1


Paid $2


Paid $2


Paid $20 or $30 (I forget)

Nice work.

We need to get you to put "width=400" after your pics though.


I assume this is your best 90 day haul?

Every single item you listed here except one shipped for over $10 and one was $400.

Are you paying that or are you saying your other costs associated with shipping are $10 and the buyer is paying the costs on the listing?

That one posted you trigger the frick out of is about to come rushing into this thread.

Clearly there’s a market for these items but some if them I just don’t understand. Are the Nintendo 3DS even hold enough to be considered some sort of collectible? New ones don’t even cost that much

The pings are pretty cool too

Depending on the condition, they're worth more than that.

By a good amount.

Fantastic returns!

Why was shipping so high on movie poster?

If you don't mind me asking - what did you pay for them?

That’s what, 20 items I showed above? I had 135 items total, so yes, I’d say the average shipping is under or just at $10. Two pounds or under through USPS is about $9

You'd have to average about $7 per item on all 137 other items to nullify just the movie poster at $400 shipping.

You have 20 other items over $10 here some as high as $30 so you are likely closer to $20 than $10 per item on shipping.

It was mounted on a board and could not be rolled up. It measures 60x40, so the shipping was of an item with a 60” side. No matter what the weight, something that size will be super expensive. The packaging was nearly $100, the postage was $320. I didn’t box it, BR Packing on Coursey did it all. The guy that bought it had me mail it to California, to a restoration company. I don’t know how much it would be to restore it, but I’m figuring at least $500. He said it will be worth $3000-$5000 when restored.
