DONE! Sorry to all the image upload vaginas. I warned you. This is a neat collection I have and figured, including their condition, could fetch some cash. Input would be great. Thanks!

P.S. Admin, can I get a spelling correction in the title please.... Matchbox not Matchboc. And if you think a pic warning needs to be in the thread title, then plz add. Thanks!

And yes, that is a mini Chewbacca in the background. Had to hide it from my 21 month old. Apparently it scares him. Momma's boy... For now.

Wow, Saw a lot I had as a kid

I'd love to have them just for the sake of nostalgia

Man, the stuff I threw away! Matchbox, Hot Wheels, and a ton of HO scale cars. I had several Tyco Pro cars that I ordered from Tyco that were more or less "experimental" in the early '70's. They were all less than $10 each through the mail.

Nice set. I'm sure you could ebay them without a problem.

No idea on worth, but those are really cool!!!!

Most of them aren't real valuable, especially the scratched-up Hot Wheels I see. The Matchbox are early, rare, and in nice condition but they don't really command the price of Hot Wheels. It's a good set, worth doing research on to determine value of each specific item. Most of the pics are coming up as red Xs for me, but from what I see and based on how many pics you've got, I would say as a group the collection is worth in the neighborhood of $150-200. There may be a car or two that I missed that is worth significantly more, and you might get more $$ for them if you sell them individually.

Those are pretty decent macro pics btw.

I have many of your Matchbox models, still in their original boxes. Last time I checked they were worth on average about $35 apiece. Do you have the boxes? If not, I couldn't say what their value would be but depending on the collector maybe $10 each.

That first photo, of the green Berlinetta, reminds me that one of the rarest Matchboxes is that car in red. It brings big bucks. The green one is very common.

There are a couple of super-duper rare redline tired Hot Wheels out there, couldn't tell you which ones but they were early, rare-color models.

I'd recommend eBay to get your most fair value for each. Good luck.

Ebay is your friend on the Hotwheels.

The white van (called Super Van) with the flames is fairly rare but not in great shape, what we call a "filler" piece. Could still bring decent money.

The Spoiler Sports (the Hulk and the chrome one) could bring $15 to $30 depending on the auction day. That's it for value in the first 2 lots.

In lot 3, you have some first year (1968) Redlines. The Camaro is a good color, known as Antifreeze, and could bring at least $100 to the right person. The others are fairly common, and should bring $15 to $50, again depending on who bids and how bad they want them. The exception to that would be the Cougar. It appears to be a color variation called Copper and could go well over $100 on the right day.

Do not list the ones I've mentioned specifically in groups, only individually. Make sure the auctions end on a Friday or Saturday evening, but not too late, around 8:00 would be good.

As to the Matchbox cars, the all seem to be original English Lesney cars, and some may be worth more than others, but I"m not the one to ask on those.
