"So talking about price ranges a good place to start that we talked about is the resource books they'll give you a price range when you go on eBay you can find price ranges also. For myself as a dealer when I buy these things what I paid dictates sometimes what I have to sell these pieces for. You'll find a wide range in different shops and there's a wide range of reasons why they're priced that way, so keep that in mind when you're looking at prices here. They're going to vary quite a bit depending on the person who's selling them if it's eBay, if it's a personal dealer like myself we all acquire these 3, these things with different sources. They cost in different prices so you're going to find a wide range of price ranges and I'm going to share just a few of them with you. These santas we talked a little earlier about these santas that are really in good condition that can cost you anywhere from $80-$125. This santa, a larger santa in good condition range in $80-$120 in very good condition. This one with a broken pike on the bottom missing the clip color is really not perfect but not bad this would cost you about $30-$35. The snowman we were looking at earlier he's in pretty good shape he's priced at $55."
