How much would you pay for the following models?

All of them made from Solid Resin, with metal stands and wooden bases

Air New Zealand
1:70 scale, Beech 1900D (25.2cm long)
1:70 scale, ATR 72-500 (38.9cm long)

DHL
1:100 scale, 757-200 (42.3cm long)

Emirates
1:200 scale, 777-200 (32cm long)

Royal New Zealand Air Force
1:100 scale, 757-200 (42.3cm long)
1:150 scale, 757-200 (28.2cm long)

I have never seen an Eagle Airways Beech 1900D before, or a RNZAF 757.

Thats quite a bit of money your willing to spend Brennan!!!
I personally wouldn't spend more than $20 on a model(yet they aren't that cheap I think) but if it was really something then...

by **Brennanx** » Tue Oct 02, 2007 2:12 pm

well i spent $40 on an ANZ 777 and sold for $80

by **creator2003** » Wed Oct 03, 2007 7:46 am

Id spend anything upto $200 on a good model that i wanted ,just depends on what it is ,what its made out of and will it fit a collection of others that i mite have ...
i wouldnt gauge what we say anyway as there are no pics and we dont know how much they are worth to each indervisual ...

Got a bit of profit there! How long did you keep it for?

by **Brennanx** » Wed Oct 03, 2007 10:02 am

1 week because thats how long trade me auction was on for. Also done it with others

by **Kelburn** » Wed Oct 03, 2007 3:43 pm

I would pay how much I think it is worth.
Why the questing MADMAX?
Have you made these models and are selling them.

by **Kelburn** » Wed Oct 03, 2007 3:57 pm

Well again.

I would buy the B1900d for around $30-$40 It isn't wood so the model isn't worth as much.
Man I would love an air NZ B1900d.

If selling in real life i would guess:

Air Nz Beech $40, ATR $50/60
DHL $60
Emirates $40
RNZAF 1:100 $60, 1:150 $40
Thai $60/70

In other words it depends on how big the model. e.g. the bigger the more expensive.
It also depends on the quality (e.g. how well painted and modeled; is it accurate or are there weird lumps etc.)

by **ZK-MADMAX** » Wed Oct 03, 2007 5:42 pm

it would also depend on the rarity of the model, yes?

by **Kelburn** » Wed Oct 03, 2007 5:51 pm

sorry. Yes definitely.
If you own them could you post some pics I wanna see a rendition of an Air NZ B1900d

by **ZK-MADMAX** » Wed Oct 03, 2007 6:03 pm

haven't been made YET

I haven't seen any Eagle Beech 1900D models or any RNZAF 757's or any MounCook ATR's, so would be highly collectible

by **squirrel350** » Wed Oct 03, 2007 6:04 pm

Would pay nada for any of those but would probably spend a few hundy on a good wooden Squirrel theres a guy in NZ who makes them to order.

SQ350

by **ZK-MADMAX** » Wed Oct 03, 2007 6:05 pm

saw a few of them on trademe a while back now, went for over $200

by **ZK-MADMAX** » Wed Oct 03, 2007 6:16 pm

This is what the Emirates 777-200 1:200 scale looks like. The metal stand and wooden base shown in the picture, is what all of them would have.

This is just a little teaser.

Thai Airways 747-400
1:150 scale

by **Kelburn** » Thu Oct 04, 2007 9:17 am

I had a rethink of prices.
Using sky marks models as an idea (their models resemble your closest).

All prices NZD but these would be around waht they would be worth in U.S.A

ATR-72 = $50-60 (a little more than Skymarks as it is slightly bigger)

757 = 1:100 = $50-60 (again a little more than sky marks as it is bigger)

777 = 1:200 = $50-60

757 = 1:150 = $40-50

747 = 1:150 = $60-70

Like I said this is around how much they'd be if you found them in a store in the U.S. but in N.Z. they'd go for a bit more as they are hard to get in N.Z. Trade Me will be your best bet as that is where you'll get the most for them. But you may want to try Ebay as Ebay would allow the whole world to buy them probably meaning more $ spent as people tend to spend in their own currency (e.g. an English person would spend a lot more in N.Z. than a Malaysian person because of what the different currencies are worth)

by **ZK-MADMAX** » Thu Oct 04, 2007 9:31 am

hmmmm interesting, those are the prices I had in mind also. You're right trademe would be the best indicator as to how much they are worth with a $1 reserve auction.

by **Kelburn** » Thu Oct 04, 2007 9:41 am

1$ auction idea. Excellent. A fantastic way to make some $$.

by **ZK-MADMAX** » Fri Oct 05, 2007 4:23 pm

Air France 777-200 1:200 scale
