I have a couple of old Revell ships and was wondering the value. I have an original issue John Paul Jones and the USS Decatur destroyers. I plan to sell one and keep the other. Is one more valuable than the other?
Kit prices are wayyyyyyyyyyy down now with the economy. Everyone is trotting out their old kit stash and there are fewer buyers. I saw a Revell Mitsubishi Raiden, which usually goes for more than $100 sell for a mere $24 recently...
There is a JPJ on ebay now wiht a buy it now of $15. Its not that old of a kit (compared to other Revell ships). Im not sure of the date of the eBay item, but if I saw an "old" JPJ for $30 and one with buy it now for $15... I'd go for the $15 kit...
The Decatur is probably worth more, but that is just a guess. Neither kit sold recenly on eBay and just one JPJ is listed now.
