Wondering the same thing. How does one have the figures without the packaging?

I'm a "remove from packaging" guy, and always display loose. I live in NYC (thus minimal space), so I discard packaging. I never intended to sell parts of my collection, but lack of space and raising a child have been changing that

You threw the art cards away on all those figures? You could have saved the cards in an envelope. Well, to each their own I guess. Also, I notice on most of the listings, you have the figures listed as new. Figures sold without packaging that have been on display are considered used.

Or even sold the cards to people who have damaged ones. But throw them  away: gasp*choke* **THUD**

I hear ya! Those numbered cards may be 1/3-1/2 the value of the figures...or even more in some cases for a really valuable figure. The clamshells can be replaced cheaply, but the cards...that's different! Just like throwing a stack of cash in the trash!

You've got some killer prices on some of the more sought after ones though. They are evaporating quite quickly I see. They buyers might have the Toy room make them a custom mego style box for them Im sure. The death of the Dracula and Curse of Frankenstein cards makes me nearly weep though, I don't have those versions,lol.


EDIT: Dang!!!  Only Masque of the Red Death remains! CONGRATS!!!!!!

Errrk! These sell for $500-$600 in the packaging!

Sorry, dude. I'm stopping now.

Way to make a fella feel bad, gang!
Yeah, in hindsight, I probably should have saved the cards, but I honestly never thought that I would sell these things. But some life changes necessitate that I make some hard collecting decisions. Also, I've always collected for enjoyment (and not as investments), so I'm happy that other people will get to enjoy these things.

It is a real shame about the card artwork but I did pick a couple up off of you (although this was before I noticed this thread and new you were on here). Rest assured that they've gone to a good home where they will be well loved and it really makes a change to see someone listing these figures at a very fair price.

Hope the money helps out and all the very best with the family, we all have to make sacrifices at times and family is a big one that can't be ignored.

Just letting you know that the DD figures arrived today and wanted to congratulate you on your great packing and also for sending them out so quickly. So pleased to get these two in my collection (The Thing and Peter Cushing), and as mentioned above they really will be well loved.

One quick question I wondered if you knew is if Peter Cushing used the two candle sticks to make a cross out of them? I've never seen the film so have no idea how these fit in.
