Yesteryear model vehicles

[fruitsalad]

I didn't know which category to put this in so here goes I have between 25-30 yesteryear model vehicles all in an excellent condition and each with its box they are in the top of a wardrobe at the moment and so I would like to try and sell them all together rather than one at a time but don't really know where to start can anyone give me and ideas Tia

Look on e-bay and see what similar ones are making.

Fruit, whatever you do, do not use any type of cleaning fluid to clean these models up as you may DE-value them, as said, go on eBay with the model + plus their makers serial Nos If any etc, that will give you an insight of their value ( Other people selling the same) can you give some sort of Idea what the are? Eg/ Dinky / Corgi!! have you got the boxes? if so, this increases their value.

i also have about 60 cars in the loft,they are between 40/6o years old ,not in great condition,no boxes,but i have a few rare ones,dont know what to do with them.

TWR they don't need cleaning they are like new have all the boxes just think its a shame they are stuck in the top of the wardrobe when someone somewhere might collect them

Have a look on Ebay first slinky, you may see some similar to yours and get an idea of price, then maybe a dealer.

Some of these models have gone for serious money. You need to get them valued and then look for a specialist auction.

Same for you Kate although you don't have the boxes they may still be worth a lot.

I think they are highly collectable.
