This lot is on ebay for $650.00.. I can't justify the price. What would be a fair offer?

Talk to Ken, he buys "job lots" but I wouldn't go beyond $100 max!

I doubt all of that cost $650 retail. $50 seems like a reasonable offer,
$41 dollars shipping is a joke also.
I would run away from that deal......

Yeah guys, I thought the whole thing was an insanity plea. But I wanted to see if there was something valuable that I had not noticed...

hi walt regardless of what he says,once it leaves the shop,its second hand,if it has not been seviced or used,could be seized up,boxes do not look that good,the link to item photos is misleading as it shows duplicated shots making it look like a lot more than is,like someone said,i buy lots and this is about $75/£100 tops,but $50 would be my best price without a better look,and the fact its not returnable,ken
ps.another bargaining chip i use is the fact tyco no longer exist and parts are zero,more so now that mantua are gone as well
pps if i was buying here in uk prices quoted would be in £s,as its dearer here

$650.00 in Monopoly money.
I think I'll jot down his user name in my notebook.
