Value of boxes

Post by bjr350z »

I have all my Transformers from 1984-1987 and kept the boxes for most of them. Unfortunately I cut the Tech Specs portion off each box but I do have those Tech Specs cutouts for all of them. My question is do the boxes in this condition, along with the Instructions booklets, add any extra value?

Boxes do have some value, but the tech specs and/or robot points cut out does devalue them significantly (probably by up to half). If you're not missing any trim from between the specs and the hole in the box, the tech specs could be re-affixed to the box by getting some matching cardstock material, cutting to the size of the entire inside of the back panel, and gluing them back in place. This would be more to increase the display value of the boxes than the dollar value, though. We have quite a few boxes in stock in the Transformerland store that could give you an idea of the value patterns!
