What's it worth?

BlueKitten

Can anyone help me please? I've seen a Ginny Weasley minifig on eBay and the listing says it is a "rare misprint". How do I find out if it is really a rare one and how much it is worth bidding? I don't want to be lured in by the description only to find out that there are bucketloads around and it's worth ninepence!

Thank you for any advice!

Without seeing the figure itself it's impossible to say if it's even legitimate. Misprints are really worthless except to those who want them and then that's a matter of a personal obsession, not actual value.

If you provide a link to the auction I'll have a look for you. Some (non Lego) collectors might be bidding sky high though.

(I believe there are people who collect these things, even if they wouldn't care otherwise, like those 20p coins a while back)

I don't know anything about Lego, but my husband's birthday is coming up and I wanted to get him something different/special. I put "Lego" and "Rare" into eBay - probably should have asked for advice here first!
