Not your typical , how much is it worth thread...

Recommended Posts

I know the best way to gauge a predicable selling price is usually to look at completed or near completed ebay auctions. But sometimes there arent any completed/current listings to accurately assess value so I'm gonna ask this question to you. And please dont tell me its worth, "whatever someone will pay". This inquiry is only meant to draw on our collective expertise in the area. so lets hear your "estimates"

Porsche 959

new built chassis

orig rally tires, look new

orig body, never cut, painted, all accessories including drivers

Rothman's decals unused

Technigold motor

original kit box, not sure if it has original instructions

never or gently run

what do you think is a fair selling price for this?

Thanks - George

£170, $260 ?

prices in USA are generally lower for used Tamiya than the UK.

For a new built chassis + near new tyres + box + motor + uncut/unpainted body + rothmans? A NIB body set alone sells for more than that, and in fact, one just did.

It sounds almost new-built, except the body is untouched. My estimate: ~$500-$600

By comparison, NIB kits are usually around the $1000 mark. It sounds like it deserves to be >50% NIB value.

My estimate was based on the chassis having been run - if it is truly new built then double my first guess , which puts it around the thoughts of Hibernaculum. As ever though what it'd fetch one month can be remarkably different another.

You mentioned painted and uncut for the body. That one is a beast to paint correctly so I'd probably knock off a bit, but it still should go around 400 US.

I had assumed this meant never cut AND never painted. Was I mistaken?
