I have a small cache of GI Joe stuff I have been trying to get rid of and no one seems to be interested. I tried selling the stuff, but no dice. I have an incomplete hovercraft, an assortment of figures and weapons, and the RAT PAC set. Is this stuff worth anything or should I just give it to my little cousins for toys? I have pics if it helps. I also have to MOBATS.

Feel free to contact me off the forum.

Could you post some pics, please?
I'm sure someone may be interested

Not sure how to post pics. The attachement limit is crazy low.

best way is to sign up for photobucket

you are either charging too much, or you are selling crap

and it might help if you piece it all out instead of trying to sell it all in one big lump.

Or you could just give it to me:D

Seriously, Dagger is right. Use photobucket. There are plenty of guys here that will help you out.

i see a couple of issues why no one is buying em

1> the figures are broken & frankensteined

2> the weapons are mostly accessory pack stuff

It also depends on how much you are asking for this stuff

$50 would be a fair asking price. I would say $2/figure and $20 for the partial whale and other stuff.

if the figures are worn and broken 2.00 is high imo. i sell junkers for a buck each and they are unbroken but have massive paintwear and loose joints. but in any case its just my oppinion :)

again ill take a look tommarrow and let the OP know :)

Sorry, I meant to say a typical ebay sale!! But on ebay you never know.

Yeah, you could spend a couple hours and a couple of bucks on O-rings and get all the figures parts together correctly (try using the site here - they've got great pictures). Match everyone's legs and torsos up and give them their proper accessories (for those that you've got). That would command a better price. Otherwise, a buck a figure tops (sold as a lot so someone else could piece them together).

I beleive the PAC RATS are complete. Don't quote me. Everyone else here is the experts.

They're not complete; the machine gun PAC-RAT is missing the 2 elevating gun barrels and the antenna. I'm not sure about the flamethrower one.
On the upside, though, the WHALE parts might sell wel individually; the fan shrouds should go well if they're unbroken.
