Buyers Lament: I regret not picking up Drive Type Tridoron(s) when it was affordable.
Suddenly, I cannot seem to find reasonable prices on Aquarius Zodiarts and Terror Dopant. And absolutely cannot seem to find the Shocker 6-figure set. Gonna have to bite the bullet on these last five because of my slack attention span to trends lol |

I'm sorry to ask here, but I don't know where else to do so.
I need to sell my SS Kamen Rider Eternal. It is missing the Zone and Eternal Memories (I bought it missing Zone, Eternal has somehow vanished into the aether), as well as it's wrist joint is weirdly tight (so the peg pops out with the hand). I don't know how to price it. I don't want to ask eBay, or even AmiAmi prices, especially with it missing the memories. But I'm also in need as much money as I can off of it. In your guys opinion, what would be a fair price to ask for him? |

Kamen Rider is very niche outside of Japan, so the people most likely to buy your SS Eternal would be people familiar with the franchise. Not a lot of people are willing to buy something that looks like Power Rangers (yes I said that). And don't bother trying to sell your figure to Japanese buyers; they can get better deals for Eternal off Mandarake or Yahoo Auctions. It's a harsh truth, but I'd still say it's better than not getting money at all. Of course, you could aways scrounge your house and hope to the missing Eternal Memory, which should be able to jack up the resell value by $5 (missing the Eternal Memory is a far more significant loss than the Zone Memory).

Fullcarttoys sells SHF scaled memories if that helps, pretty sure it has both Eternal and Zone memories in the set

Okay the memories would definitely tank the figure but $35 is an INSANE price to drop it to. Seihou Eternal remains one of the priciest SHF Kamen Riders on the market by a long shot, with Mandarake consistently selling it between 28,000 - 36,000 Yen. If you're looking at the right value you should be selling it no lower than 100 dollars and that is me lowballing it a LOT.
Find a couple other Rider collector communities - Reddit and Facebook, even - and give it a shot at triple figures. There will ABSOLUTELY be someone willing to buy, maybe even on here; and honestly? Take Vorutekku's suggestion above and you're LAUGHING; with a replacement (and other accessories from the set) you could probably justify it at about 200. From what you've said on your thread you need the money; unless you feel like giving a very nice deal to someone else without a lot of money I would genuinely suggest no lower than 100

...I clearly valued the Memories a lot less than some do. $25-$40 is insane, I'm sorry.

The Memories are pretty important so them missing will tank the price a significant amount. I'd say $25-35. Sounds pretty bad, but I don't see anyone willing to pay over $35 for a fan-favorite figure, as awesome as it is, that's missing vital accessories.

They are easily replaceable if your not concerned about the identity of the 2-party maker(for something so tiny, it?s a moot point) in a box, with all the instructions, wired cape, missing two tiny Memories you can replace: 180-200$ is what I?d ask for. Eternal is STILL going to sell. |

I'm reasonably certain they meant by $35, which I'm inclined to agree with. Losing an accessory like that isn't a complete and utter dealbreaker but it'll definitely be cause for further consideration, in my experience. This isn't vintage G.I. Joe or Transformers where so many were produced and aftermarket reproductions are fairly common and typically at least somewhat affordable, we're talking an upper-mid range collectible of which copies are hard to come by due to a low production run, meaning replacements are going to be hard to find and pricey when you do.

Okay, looking at all the comments here it's clear that I vastly underestimated the resell value of Eternal. Imma shut up now then and let the experts calculate the resell price. I apologize for my lack of understanding on this issue.
