This account is new but I'm extremely experienced with online sales, will be paying via Paypal or any desired method.

Not looking for any of the plushies or VHS/DVDs, got lucky on Ebay.
My main priority is finding some art or even cels to surprise my partner with.
I was looking at the snowglobe for a while but I'm not really down to drop $400 on one, I know they're worth that much but I think he'd much rather prefer more art and cels.

You’re looking at really big money for artwork and cels now days. What’s your budget?

Collectors Cel - https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre ... 3720387884

Oh wow hi there, I’ve seen your collection on twitter!
Honestly for a good storyboard or cel of Balto and Jenna I’d do $500 or so.
I managed to snag a storyboard of the two of them meeting for the first time but I’d love to see if there’s anything else out there.

I once bought a Balto Cel for $175 but they have gradually increased in price since, the last one I was lucky to get for about $800 and it was more complete than the one listed on eBay currently. However they rarely come for sale so it’s probably best to get them when you see them. They are cheaper than they were new though as they sold for around $1800 back in the day! Storyboards are a lot cheaper you should be able to pick them up for less than $100 and original drawings vary depending on the character

Balto production art and animation cels are very hard to come by nowadays. I happen to have a few. I have a model sheet, pre production drawing, photo copied production drawings, and a storyboard. Sadly you won’t find many of these for very cheap. I love my collection a lot, and I do apologize if this is kinda off topic, but how much should one sell their entire collection of over 50+ items for? I’m torn on whether or not I am actually going to sell my collection down the road. I do kinda need the extra money for my big move, but at the same time i’ve been collecting since I was 14 and it has grown special to me. I don’t want to make any dumb decisions, so I am giving myself six months to think on it. I was just curious on how much I should consider selling it for so I won’t lose any money on it if I did decide to sell my entire collection.

Always difficult to say for sure because it’s only worth what someone will pay at the time. I guess it depends if you have rare sought after items but I’d guess you’d always get more for selling items off individually than as a job lot. I was assume that it’ll be worth more to you than the financial figure. I don’t know how I’d even go about valuing mine

Hey there! By any chance could you shoot me a dm with any specifics of your collection? I can always find a fair price and offer if we’re interested in anything!! I found a site that list historic auctions that can help with pricing. I managed to get us the production cel of balto and jenna along with two storyboards. :0
