Is this on sale by you or on Ebay?

Regardless, they're all pretty common beasts. Some have rubs which is good but it looks like most don't or they are damaged. Hard to tell on the paint for the figures, but it looks ok. This lot isn't anything special, really. I'd suggest my perceived value, but I'm frequently told that my evaluations are wrong. So I'll let someone else do that for you instead.

 

This would be a decent lot for a person starting or in need of these figures, depending on the price.

Not for sale by me, and not from ebay. I picked these up locally, and I was curious about how much a lot like this usually goes for
Your perceived value is fine by me

I see some with weapons and I can assume that would be close to $10 each depending on condition. Others with rubs should get at least $5. Just my opinion.

In bigger lots the average price for figs is normally less and as mentioned before condition is an important factor as well. 

 

That said I think its fair to say all the figs without rubs are around $3 - $5, figs with rubs and in good condition are $5 -$7 depending on from which Serie they are, Serie 1 Beasts are more common. Weapons are also worth around $3 - $5 each. 

 

Knowing this I´d say this lot holds a value from anywhere between $75 - $125 maybe a little more on a good day.

Its not always easy to predict because lots like these on Ebay mostly end up at a price you don´t expect resulting either in a way to low price when there´s a lack of interest/bidders while on the other hand it can also go up to $150 based on an average price around $5 a figure. Its a good thing you´ve some Series 2 figs in there but the majority is Serie 1. 

 

Anway I´m pretty sure that if you´ve bought it locally you paid (much) less than the lowest estimate of $75 so think you did well  

 

Enjoy the Beasts!

As someone actively purchasing Beasts right now, I feel I have a pretty good grasp on pricing right now. Common figures with rubs and weapons in good condition are running around $7-$10 each in lots. Other Beasts I have been paying an average of $3.47 each, for good condition Beasts with or without working rubs. Poor or damaged Beasts I am paying no more then $1.25 each.

For that lot, 33 figures with 9 weapons, and a lot of doubles, I would have bid around $150-$160. Anything less would have been awesome.

The thing about battle beasts prices that I have noticed is they fluctuate rather easily when sold in lots.  Many times a lot like this has sold for around $60-70 dollars or sometimes they could get up to $150 depending on the rule of two. 

 

I'vee also noticed in lots like this that having the rub signs is not as important to buyers than having the actual figure in very good condition.  It also helps that there are weapons but the price of the auction could actually be deterred due to not ALL of the figures having there weapons.  Most buyers want either all or not especially with multiple duplicates in the lot. 

 

Seeing that you got this lot from a store I'm going to go with you paid $50 for all of them.  I know that sounds ridiculous but normally speacialty stores(i.e comic shops) that have battle beasts never move them due to people selling them at the status quo price point of around 7-8 dollars per beast.  I'm going with you got them at a toy convention and offered that $50 to the person and they didn't hesitate to say no.

Wow you have amazing luck with this!  I look through thrift shops and antique stores around here about once a month and I'd be stoked if I even found a single figure, much less a whole lot like that. I've not found a single BB figure in the wild since 1999.

 

Great score man.

I ended up paying $110, and was happy to do so, as it was from a local used/vintage toy-store that always hits me up when stuff like this shows up. I've successfully avoided eBay in buying any BB's, and instead have managed to get all to the figures I have either locally, or via trade here on the board, and that was solely through Bachamn
