I'd suggest posting pictures here.
I've had a look at them and they are very nice.
Posting them here will generate more interest.

You're probably not going to get many estimates/offers until we see some whole army shots so we at least know what's in the army. I see some bikers and a Land Raider, but as far as I know there's a bunch of stuff just to the right. Give an exact inventory of your stuff. Your painting looks decent, and you could probably sell for about retail value.
Also, don't sell your old armies. You'll almost never get your investment back in full, and you'll probably want to play with them again some day.

I have to agree with this, as I could never bear to part with any of my mini's... much to my flats dismay at this, but still. I will one day find a use for all the armies I never finished

They look nice, but I would have to repaint them to match my existing army.
I would give you 80 British £
but that is on the low end because I would have to strip them and repaint.

extremely valid point on the importance of not selling old armies....one day I will want it back. I dont actually play 40k (or any wargame for that matter!), I am solely a painter and collector Automatically Appended Next Post: DeathReaper wrote:They look nice, but I would have to repaint them to match my existing army.

I couldn't possibly part with them for a little as £80, I slaved over the white on these models. Some of the miniatures had seven coats of white to get it smooth. As for stripping them and repainting!!!!! I wouldnt let them go to a gamer who was going to strip them for £1m!

I figured that, but as I HATE white armor, and do not run White Scars, that is would I would honestly do with them if I bought models like yours, say at an auction, and the price I gave would be my high end price.
Yes, you would get more from someone that plays White Scars, I was just giving you my honest thoughts for the question you asked.
I calculated them being worth this much:
7 bikes (8 USD each)
attack bike (10 USD)
land speeder (15 USD)
5 assault terminators (20 USD)
land raider (30 USD each)
for a total of 130 USD, about 81 british pounds.
But the painting did not add any value for my calculations, because they do not match my army.
