Seller notes

• Sealed copies sell for $806.60 vs $165.15 used — a 388% premium. If you have this set new in sealed box (NISB), price it accordingly.
• This is a vintage set (1995). Condition of the box and instructions significantly affects value. A complete set with original box and instructions can sell for well above the average.
• 6 minifigures at $32.85 combined value. That's a solid minifig haul — consider listing the figures individually on BrickLink where per-figure prices tend to be highest.
