I bought a bunch (like 50 boxes) Dust premium models and haven't opened them. They've been sitting in my basement for a few years, and I need the space.

I looked on ebay and there doesn't seem to be many Dust models (pre-painted or not) for sale there. Ditto on the dakka swap shop.

Where is the best place to sell these things?

Sadly Dust seems to have imploded due to arguments between the 2 parties involved in the recent-ish KS

so there is not such a strong market for use in the game (also a bunch of stores seem to be giving up on it and are selling off new stock at 50% off or more)

so I suspect the second hand market (in general) would rather hold onto things than have to try and undercut that.

You'll probably still find buyers for your stuff on ebay/dakka marketplace/barter town but they'll be looking for really good deals (probably using the stuff for conversions or cross system)

Ah, that explains it.

Thanks.

Welcome to the problem several retailers have had.

I'm sure there are folks who would be happy to buy them. My guess is that you could pretty easily offload them for 50% off retail. NIB you probably want to get more. People have been able to pick up a lot of Dust stuff at a steep discount lately, so you are up against that. I don't know if the Premium models have more 'street value'.

50% off at Ebay, Bartertown or Dakka is probably a doable element. There seem to be a fair number of places that Dust can be found for 20-30% off at regular intervals so you'll need to undercut that.

Also, FFG had a mega sale of all Dust (even premiums) at 70-85% off last Christmas where alot of folks stocked up. There's no guarantee, but FFG still has alot of stock, but has ended their relationship with the game, so there's a chance they may try and blow the rest out again at christmas.

If you want to offload your stuff, I'd highly recommend doing so before November. Best of luck whatever you decide.

I always thought Dust stuff would make for awesome Infinity terrain - an Ariadna base, warzone, military graveyard or something. Perhaps an opportunity there?

What was the difference between regular and premium?

Premium is prepainted.

Ebay all the way!!
