Valuations of sets

Brewer51

Hey guys; I'm pretty new to the Lego business and I've been digging some of my older sets out the loft (not much older, mind). I'm unsure as to whether to sell them, but if I do decide to once I've sorted through them, I was wonderng on the value of the sets. I'm reluctant to just list them on ebay as to what I think they are, because I would like a decent price. I'm not expecting loads, but I am curious as to what they are worth - so I decided to ask the Brickset users in all their infinite wisdom, what they think they're worth.

It's only 3 sets - no box/instructions and stickers (if the set has them) are applied.

3827 - Adventures in Bikini Bottom
8635 - Mobile Command Center
4708 - Hogwarts Express

Brewer,
A quick evaluation,
3827- $32
8635- $60-70 (?)
4708- $30

For future sets, a piece of advice would be to keep the box and instructions as it greatly increases their value.
Cheers,

^I've never used BL. Apparently that's where you should list it because you won't get that much money on eBay!

Cheers,

Unless is's a retired CC-style (Cafe Corner, G/Grocer, MarketStreet), large retired model (Eiffel, Liberty) or Star Wars (orig MF, Imp Star Destroyer), etc!

Market Street I have seen at $1400, and CC at over $900 MISB!

Thanks guys. It slipped my mind to check BL. I'm trying to make millions, just wanted a rough guide as to what prices they are.

@samiam391
I'dve kept the boxes/instructions, but I was young and thought they were unnecessary once I'd built them. Wish I had now though.

Used prices in this case would be lower due to the fact of no box and/or instructions...

That's right, I already forgot that in my second post. In that case, the prices I gave you (with the fact there were no boxes or instructions included in mind) should be close to their average sale price on eBay and BL. Cheers,
