The figurines are based on the Beatrix Potter collection called Foxwood Tales. They are from the company Villeroy and Boch. They are also brand new, never opened and still in their original tin boxes with the bubble wrap and everything. Anything would help. Thanks!

    You can search eBay and see what similar porducts have sold for recently. This will give you an idea where to start and what to expect.

    Hi. If you want my opinion, the best price will be realized whenever you just start the bidding at .99 with No Reserve, and let them sell for what they are gonna sell for. Trust me this works much better, and anyway if you put a price you expect to get, well that is the price they use to comparison shop you to find it cheaper.

    I have a blog that shows you how to research items final sale price

    just in case you never go:

    you can use terapeak.com and

    mpire.com

    or ebays advanced search, just click the box that says completed listings.

    I suggest you read the whole article though!

    My research (very quick) shows $240.00 for 15 beatrix potter figurines by a different company

    And the previous answer is right- DO NOT start the auction at what its worth it must be low enough to attract bidders to a deal – BUT in your case do not start at .99 cents because your obscure item may not get enough bidders to raise the price to what its worth -that only works on high demand items like iphones and wiis – start at about 75% of what you estimate its worth

    Selling on eBay is a difficult task and requires a lot of time, dedication and patience; however for most people it’s fun and take it in a positive way.
