Current Market Value-Experts assess yours, or other's collectible King item
Hi all,
I've got to do the hard thing and sell my Centipede Salem's Lot Deluxe (Roman Numerald, not Lettered) edition. We just had a baby, and my wife is quitting her job to stay at home with the kids- daycare costs are hell, as I'm sure a lot of you know!
Anyhow, any opinions on terms of value? This is a tough one, as the market is down right now (at least on Ebay), but considering there hasn't been a copy of this offered since the week it came out (Ebay: $7,500.00), it's extremely hard to determine current market value. Obviously, I'm looking for "top value", whatever that may be.
I'm considering going the consignment route, via the new "Horror Mall", rather than Ebay, but wanted to ask the well-informed folks here what they think.

How much should I ask for them? Comics
I'm hoping you guys can help me out. I bought the first 3 Gunslinger Borns as soon as they were issued, with variants, with promotional extras. I was hoping to collect them all, keep them for a long time, and maybe sell them in the far future. The problem is, I have alot of SK books and stuff that I don't really need. It's nice to have stuff like this, but with the baby growing, us trying to make another one, and the money trouble's of trying to buy milk and diapers and pay bills on just my income.... it's not a priority any more.
So the crux of the situation is this. I'm gonna post these things on ebay, as one sole auction, GB 1-3 with variants and promo items, nm/mint condition. However, as I have been away for a while from the SK collector's scene, I'm not sure I can get back what I paid for them. I originally paid $100+ for the first issue + variants, and $87 dollars a piece for the next two issues + variants. it adds up to about $260. The promo items I got separate, and am not really sure I remember how much I paid for them, but it wasn't much.
How much should I ask for them? I'm hoping I can get at least $200 back in my pocket.
What do you guys think? I'd appreciate your input.
