To be better prepared when deciding to purchase, sell, or obtain a collection of Old Star Wars Toys Items, you should consider the following elements that determine the value of those toys. The history of Star Wars Toy Items is very long, with most having been produced in the late 1970's. So age is one of the most critical aspects to consider in establishing value. In general, older toys tend to draw the most attention, especially if they were produced in conjunction with one of the original movies. The item’s condition is also of great interest because it indicates how well it could be expected to hold its value. Toys with high paint quality (ex. shiny and bright), tight joints, original accessories, and minimal appearance of use are the most desirable. In addition, items that are complete (contain all parts), very well preserved, or have not yet been opened generally command higher prices than similar items that have less desirable attributes.
Rarity also plays an important role in establishing value. Certain Star Wars Toys have a limited quantity associated with their production and/or a limited time frame for their release, making them very difficult to find in today's market. Examples of this include mail-away figures and special editions. In most instances, collectors who have experience with collecting Star Wars Toy Items will pay close attention to how many similar items are being offered in stores, what is the current price (if they are being sold), and how Star Wars Toy Items are currently selling for in other parts of the world. Familiarizing yourself with your local market and having an idea of what to expect from similar items sold in other parts of the world will help make the overall experience of buying/selling/building your collection of similar items and getting the most value.
