    It depends whether you want to sell them all together (try adverts or donedeal) or individually (ebay)

    Id be interested in any rally models you have

    Post your advert at adverts.ie :
    http://www.adverts.ie/for-sale/toys-games/models/236/
    You can upload photos to show them off.

    And then make a new thread here in the models forum, containing a link to your adverts ad and send some viewers over to it.

    The idea is to avoid all the enquiries and haggling clogging up the forum and keep those posts visible in one place.

    put up manufacturer details,model of car etc,how many have you for sale and we on here can give you a price,my advice is take your time,catalog what you have and if they are worth anything dont take stupid offers for them,my wife gave her pals child some old dinkys i had stored away as something to play with when she was babysitting,i didnt discover it for a week or two,boxes gone,cars in bits,when i told her how much they were worth she started crying,so be careful.and yes i forgave her....after a few weeks,quite a few weeks.:D

    Hi angelarm
    I'm a collector and i can tell you your prices a way to high.
    I have no interest in any of your stuff, because i allready have most of them or very similar models. Plus i'm broke.

    Here's a quick idea of what i would expect to pay for these at any swap meet.
    maisto ducati €5 to €10....but i don't know much about bikes

    mercedes benz truck... max €10

    burago mercedes benz 300sl 1954 still in shops for around €40 so second hand €20 to €30

    farrari f50 can't really see it in the pic but it looks like a petrol station giveaway.

    burago ferrari 250 ...€20 to €30

    freightliner....pound shop toy...maybe €5 to €10

    days gone busand 2 vans....€1 each if your lucky.

    maisto volkswagen €5 to €10

    compact truck €35 max

    Hope that helps you sell them.
