    NOTE: This is not a selling post. I'm seeking for advice at the moment and will soon have these ready for sale.

    Hi all, I plan on selling some toys soon but I don't know much about pricing second-hand Bad Dragon toys. I was wondering if I could get advice for this? Also, would it be smarter to wait for prices to increase on Sept. 7th?

    The toys in question are:
    -S Tucker, Firm, Rogue (purple) w/nicks on the bottom (like little air bubbles)
    -M Fenrir, Medium, Custom color (black and blue marble pattern)
    -M Chance Unflared, Firm, Starlight Glow Legacy, +Cumtube
    -M David's Sheath, Soft, David's Sheath Signature
    -One-Size Chico Lil' Squirt, Firm, Galaxy Black, +Cumtube
    -L Tyson, Firm, Rogue (Unused)
    -XL Echo, Medium, Echo's Signature (Unused)
    -XL Austin, Medium, Austin's Signature, +Suction cup (Unused)

    I might be adding more toys when I actually sell. Thank you in advance for your help.

    It all depends on different things.
    If a brand new from BD is 105 people are seldom going to pay 105 on here. Secondhand might take some off the price. Are there any nicks/flops? Anything that might take the actual ‘desired value’ down would obviously lower the price. Most people
    Know prices right now so even if you wait till BD goes up in Sep. som might not bite if you base it off those (some will).
    Also, look around this website for other items being sold/have sold. You will get a general idea of what to price them at.
    Hope that helps some.

    In my opinion, your unused toys would be worth more if they were still in the bag, unopened. When toys aren’t sealed any more, then we have to take your word that the toy is unused. There’s no way to prove that the toy is really unused or not.

    A solid deal on a used toy (speaking as a buyer) is 50% of the new price, with extra charges for shipping (I have bought used toys at this price in the past, but those days may be over). It seems like lately that 66% or 2/3 of the new price is now considered a solid deal for buyers, and I see lots of ads asking for 75% of the new price. Occasionally I see ads that are just $20 or $30 less than new, but I don’t see the point. I’d rather pay the extra $20-30 to get an unused toy with no risk of being scammed.

    I think a lot of people ask too much $ for used toys, but if the toy gets sold, then the price was just fine.

    Yeah I think I went on the higher end just to be safe. Open to negotiating ofc. Since I made the selling post should I delete this one?
