Scape value dropping?
Do you guys get the sense that heroscape stuff on ebay and in general is lowering in value? Has the peak of its time passed?
I just got lucky with a $12 box of stuff at Goodwill: - full ice set - set of trees, bridge and roads - tons of expansion figures without cards, including Knights, Romans and a lot more. - partial castle set Probably the best deal I have had in all these years. I was pondering ebaying stuff, to generate money to buy more etc. Just wondering if folks see the prices going down as less people pick it up the older it gets. |

Well I guess it is going strong! Every time I get more I tell myself I will sell it on ebay and turn a profit...but then I just absorb it into the collection.

Re: Scape value dropping?
I know I've bought large collections for a particular set with the intent of selling off the rest to recover what I spent...but I haven't sold much.
Would I want it to be everything I love...sure...but that's just not realistic so I'm going to focus on finding things that will make me unhappy and work on fixing those. |

Re: Scape value dropping?
Yeah, I still see super high prices... I think everyone gets lucky once in a while with deals like you found, but I still see tons of ebay and amazon prices at levels beyond insane. Still freaking $50 for Axegrinders... Lately I’ve been looking for some squads of Deathchasers of Thesk, they still float around $16-18 a squad... I hate these prices.

It is strange to think that I have thousands of dollars worth of toys in my house.

Then he asked if I was a collector. I told him my little stash doesn't come anywhere near what could be called a collection. More like a modest assortment |

Time to up your insurance to cover the cost it would take to replace your toys. It'd be a sad day if just what was in my mancave was destroyed.

Re: Scape value dropping?
I have always assumed everything I have is worth a fair amount (at least 2 of everything ever made). But I couldn't help wonder if the number of people into it was decreasing. I find myself buying more lately, I should just start auctioning enough of it to double my money each time and build an pool of money for games. But then I am so excited to have a 4th ice set and I don't want to sell it

Re: Scape value dropping?
Never owned an ice set. Came close to winning one at Gen Con once.
I hope to 3D print off the mountain pieces someday. Even if the demand is shrinking, which I doubt, the supply certainly is, especially New in Box merchandise, so that stuff is always going to demand a premium. The played with stuff is getting less as well as tiles break and figures get hacked up for mods and when stuff gets destroyed or thrown away. |

Paint water tiles.
Hopefully I can print those eventually as well. Probably going to have to wait until spring to buy a 3D printer. |
