Keifer Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 I know price is subjective but is that a fair going price? I have no experience with this so I was just curious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no experience with this so I was just curious. Honestly I don’t know - I do think that it is based on the fact that it’s not available anymore - the quality of the wood - the style and what appears to be well put together and cared for - it’s hard for me to give a fair market value also because O have the 1:1 version of this house and only paid $40 but mine is no where near complete and the person was desperate to clear out his grandmothers garage ... if i didn’t have the full size version I’m confident I’d pay close to asking to buy this one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be honest, I don't look to buy things until they are $100 or less. Because, as we all know, you can get stunning houses for $100 or less. Sad but true. BUT, I think $250 for that house is quite fair. It looks well done inside and out. Would I go buy it? No - not at that price. But when I see $250 price tag I don't balk - I don't think the seller is unrealistic I just don't think it will sell. MIniaturists are frugal and mostly DIYers. And non-miniaturists think miniatures are cheap toys, so it's a hard audience to sell to out there, right? Great collectors/buyers market tho! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparklepuppies Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 I agree with all that Jenn! And I used to say $100 was my cut off point too. But then last month I bought those 2 Bespaq roombox/display cabinets... And I can't say that anymore. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keifer Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 I suppose its like when you sell anything, start high to go low. I’ve sold a few used cars I had and I listed them $500- 1K higher than my absolute lowest price I was willing to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minikelli Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 That's the ACP Queen Anne Rowhouse I just got for $40. Nice to see another one that's finished though to get ideas on how I want to do mine up! :) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fov Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 I hope you'll both post pictures! I love this house. I need to finish mine and post a gallery. it's been almost finished for a long time - just need to finish the shingles - but the printie wallpaper I used in the staircase area is all messed up and it will be very difficult to fix (requires ripping out the custom stairs and destroying some of the wiring) and I'm paralyzed over it, I can't figure out a good way to do it and don't want to mess up what I have, but am too embarrassed to post pictures of it with those rooms like this (they really look awful). Maybe seeing some pics of other rowhouses would inspire me to get back to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minilover62 Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 I think the 2 people biding on the 144 scale Queen Anne kit will feel awful now with this new posting from Sheila with not only the QA, but 3 other kits on the same post that will probably sale for less of what they are willing to pay for only one kit. Yikes! https://www.ebay.com/sch/smirabal01/m.html?item=173275712973&hash=item2858098dcd%3Ag%3A6FYAAOSwMhda1o1h&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2562 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh I will for sure, I've already decided on a color for the outside and today my original Carlson windows and doors arrived - more then the house requires but it was a lucky find and I had to purchase them! I'm hoping to get started on it soon! @minikelli what stage is yours in? is it 1/1 or half scale? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

minilover62 Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 I think this owner is also in for a big surprise about the amount of money that he/she thinks is going to realize. Huge, beautiful and very impressive house. If they get the asking price minus one zero, they can consider themselves lucky.

I love the upper-story greenhouse/orangerie. It has a Winchester House feel, no? 110% Winchester! Great post. It has a Noel Thomas feel or maybe Clell Boyce --from one angle on the end. But other parts not so much. Either inspired by or bashed into this huge creation. Wow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
