Tamiya 1:35th easy eight sherman, what's it worth

[Shermie22]

I have the above kit and just wondered what it is worth. Thinking of selling to pay for some rc tank bits.

Greetings Shermie....selling statics is tricky...a lot depends on how the model is depicted....I've seen auctions for build models range from 9 dollars to 150+..the later rarely sell though....I just got one from EBAY to use for a future build...it was a piece of junk...and I think I overpaid...but it was less than purchasing the Kit and spending the time to build it

I've seen it very recently at my local shop, somewhere in the $50-60 range.

That's the one

Might as been as high as $65 USD in my local hobby shop within the last month or two. They had it in the popular section due to Fury.

TBH I want one, but not going to pay that much for a 1:35th kit, lol.

just another two cents un built kits are worth more that built

No problem Shermie....just as an example ...the build model I got on Ebay with ship cost me 35 dollars US...In Kit form sells from anywhere from 50 to about a 120 with ship US
There are some that try to sell built for about 150 plus ship...but I've never seen those get any bids
