Well one sold on ebay for £62 a couple of weeks ago with all parts still sealed in bags etc. Though they do sometimes sell on buy it now for £150ish and one even seems to have sold at £200 buy it now, but then several failed to sell at £150 buy it now as well. You might get £250, but will probably be a long wait on buy it now, depends how fast you want a return.

Fair enough you need to get the money back, but realistically i think even for ebay top money selling you will need to drop it a bit to shift anything in a sensible time frame.

Amazing hoard there though, congratulations!

Personally there is some risk involved with sealed OOP models as if you open it and there are bits missing then you're screwed if you want replacement parts... happened to me recently, bought a BFG strike cruiser still sealed in the blister and it has two left hand side plate bits at the back.... fortunately I don't care very much and it didnt cost me a great deal but if it was the final model I needed to complete an army project and I paid top whack for it.....

GW do make mistakes....

For that piece to be honest I'd rather wait and get good money I've got a complete but assembled one too I expect to make at least £100 if not more on it. I had an eye opener recently I sold some stuff for 3x more than I ever had in the past on auction. I believe people are starting to take the attitude that if they don't get this one they never will. While I often complain about the prices on Ebay I just can't justify selling for less than I'm sure I can get eventually particularly not when I owe so much since my old retail store closed :(

Anyhow I'll see what Folks want I've sold a chunk of it already then I'll take it to the bay :) The rare bits in my opinion is the infantry thats normally the most difficult part to get when buying an army metal tanks and titans are pretty common mostly.

Great haul, good luck with the sales

IMO epic on ebay has been ruined by Markfield miniatures (and multiple aliases) and his inflated prices
