Need help valuing collection. New at heroscape

[Pickles Nickles]

A friend is selling me his collection of heroscape and I’m not sure if I’m getting a good price. I have pictures of what he is including but not the specifics from the sets. It comes with about 120 figurines and cards, including 6 dragons and the marvel set. Lots of terrain, including the castle.

Again, I haven’t played this game for a long time but would love to get back into it. Just not sure what I should be looking for, meaning if it’s a good set or if it’s worth the price. He says he wants around $400.

Any help would be appreciated. I’m a beginner trying to get involved

Welcome. Make sure you check out the Utah tournament scene on here, they have a tournament every month and these tournaments are always good fun. To help value your purchase, it would help to know what figures and what sets are in the lot. Some are more desirable than others and that makes the difference in how much they are worth.

Thanks for your quick response. The friend I am buying them from hasn’t played in a while so doesn’t need know the pieces and either do I. Hopefully those links work below.

My gut says $400 is a little high, maybe $300-$350? I only spent a couple of minutes looking at pics though, so take with a grain a salt.

[Pickles Nickles]

Thanks for the estimate. I’m thinking $300 too but I like to hear opinions because I want to get a good deal and not overpay. Wanting to get a good set but not wanting to overpay

Looks like RoTV (~$80), Marvel (~$40), SoTM (~$80), Castle (~$30), Raknar's Vision (~$50), Orm's Return (~$20), and a few expansions (we'll say $80 total).

So that's $380, but with a bulk discount, $300-$350 seems fair.

I see the Jandar dice and bag and perhaps the Utgar dice and bag. If Gilbert and Ornak are in the collection it does increase the value by maybe 50 bucks or so.

[Pickles Nickles]

Awesome guys. Thanks for the estimates. I feel better now working on the price. I’m so excited to get into this game. So many moving pieces.

Ornak is in there. I didn't see Sir Gilbert though. Also Rise of the Valkyrie can usually be found on eBay for about 40-50, so 80 is probably a bit high.

Thank you for an update on price. You guys have been great. When I go look to buy this set, anything I should be looking out for? Like any rare pieces or quality checks to be sure of? The terrain seems pretty basic but if i buy this, i dont want to be missing anything extremely important.

[Pickles Nickles]

Thanks guys. It actually had a ton of good and rare pieces and I was able to get it for a great price. Thanks for all of your help!

Good for you, Pickles!

You're lucky to live in an area with an active tourney scene. Check it out and meet those guys. It'll be fun!
