After bagging this lot a few weeks ago I have decided to definetley stick to Series 2 only. I did put my cobra stuff on ebay before but the sale fell through and I decided to hang on to it. However I am still pursuing a few Palitoy bits so decided toi limit myself. I have relisted my entire Cobra collection. I starting the bidding at £50, does that seem fair?

i think it should go for more than £50 but i think the starting bid is too high.
i know its a risk but i would start the bid at 99p and get a bit of a bidding war started then wait for a few snipes at the end.
personally anything with a high start price or postage puts me off straight away.
i would break it up as well. most of the figs are £10+ each
lovely collection, its a shame you're gettin rid. been sortin through some of my early cobras and i forgot how cool they are.

you could probably get £20 quid plus just on the Firefly...
you should definitely break it up.

£50 start was more than fair. Either a high start or split them up as SD said. You run a big risk with the 99p starts. You could've ended up getting £15 -20 or something stupid. Its happened to me a couple of times.

i think this might do well together tbh. it already has another bid i think and unlike some mixed auctions it doesnt have a few good bits with a few stinkers, its all good desirable stuff

I am going to split it up and thought about a buyi it now for the vehicles. What does everyone think would be fair for the 4 vehicles?

Depends on condition really. Assuming the stinger is complete with steering wheel and unbroken parts and the fang has an inbroken roll cage id say £70-£100 if you sold seperately.
It really depends on the day with ebay as some things lately are going for surprising prices but then others sneak through quite cheaply.
