AWA Remco market (yester-year & today!)

[pandelis]

Ok - so I may be revealing my age a bit, but I remember when AWA Remco figures were being sold in local shops. (Roughly 1985?)

I would see (and bypass) rows and rows of Road Warriors 2-packs and 3-packs with Paul Ellering.

I'm reminiscing because I just picked up a large lot of loose AWA Remcos on d'bay, and was wondering what type of price points folks have seen lately.

Included in the lot were several key figures like - Playboy Buddy Rose, Doug Somers and the Midnight Rockers.

Any valuation info folks can share would be appreciated. And YES - I do plan on parting with them.

Look forward to some feedback!

WOW, for $ 150 you bought a great lot!

The Mat Manias used to sell for $ 400 - $ 500 loose and $ 800+ MOC a few years ago, with Shawn Michaels (obviously because of his later fame), Boris Zhukov and Nord selling high end.

Those days have passed, but don't settle for less than $ 150 each for The Rockers, Doug Sommers and Buddy Rose. Hansen, Blackwell, the orange variant Colon and operhaps Abby should make $ 35 or so easily.

The rest $ 10 each.

What a GREAT lot to buy.

Why? *sob* *snif!*
I'm looking since ages for a complete Jannetty at a decent price, but you manage to pick up a complete lot...

It was just one of those Sunday morning pickups when I'm sure few people were online.

I was doing a quick search before I left for church with my family and "BAM!" - it was right there in front of me.

Feel free to drop me a line with an offer - otherwise, I hope to have them available within a week or two.

BTW - the most expensive AWA Remco I ever sold was a Boris Zuchoff Mat Mania figure MIB. It was about 2 or 3 years ago now, but it went for an astonishingly high price!
