Price question on Sentai Robots

[poshmommy]

How much are used sentai robots worth?

Yesterday I came across several Shinken-oh robots. Used with the boxes, nothing broken or missing but with scratches. They ranged from $25-35. I also came across a used Goseiger robot, with the box but with scratches for $25.
Are these prices considered reasonable? How much do the usually go for?

depends on the mecha sold.
Example: A MIB Great Five (from Hikari Sentai Maskman) will set you about $100+, while a DX Daibouken will set you at the prices you mentioned, depending on the status of the toy (MIB, missing a few parts, no box, etc.)

It all depends on how old the DX mech would be.

Also, since you mentioned if the prices are considerable, I say yes, since that's how much PR DX mechas (currently known for shoddy workmanship by fans) cost in this age.

Nothing I come across is MIB. Everything is well played with (scratches, dents) but no missing pieces. Boxes can be hit or miss.
Usually the older robots I find are cheaper. Boukenger for $7 with out box. Gekiranger for $5 with out box. Those I don't usually think twice, I just buy.
But when its over $20 I am not sure if its a good deal because originally it was maybe $60-70 (Sometimes less).

As you mentioned, since the mechs are complete (no missing parts like you said), and cost less, I say go for it.

As a collector myself, that didn't bother me with scratches, no box and all.

if it's over $20, that only means that could either be:
-sold with another mecha as a bundle in the garage sale
-actual reduced price to make a quick sale
