Nickelodeon Poster Series

Bought: $3.15 Sold: $149.99 Fees: $17.01 Profit: $129.83

When I saw this orange box in among the board games at VV I was curious, and as soon as I saw that it was a box of Nickelodeon posters I grabbed it. After I researched it I realized it was never commercially sold, and was given out as a prize at various comic book conventions. It not only included 10 posters featuring original art of their 10 most popular shows, but it also included 10 postcards of the same images and a bag of stickers. The posters had never been hung either. There were none on eBay, and google searches only brought me to information about it, but nothing about prices - likely because it was never commercially sold. I listed it high at $150, and had some initial interest but all very low offers, with the highest offer around 50% of my asking. I was content to sit on it and wait, and I had actually forgot I had this for sale until it sold today. It shows that if you have something unique and desirable, you just have to wait for the right buyer. Someone clearly felt $150 was a good price for this, and I'm glad they found it.
