So I am trying to sell my ENTIRE Naruto box set (16) on ebay. I'm started the bid at $175 and Buy Now at $200. At $200 that's $12.50 for each box set; plus 3 other free anime series. You think its a good deal or should I drop the prices?

Two questions, 1. Unless you have a complete duplicate copy, why would you sell a complete box set of any series? and 2. Do you remember what price you bought them at?

I ask the second because unless you don't want to make a profit, I would consider looking at what the standard retail price of the set is, and perhaps sell it at maybe 4 or 5 dollars more than that. That way, you would get some money back for the entire sale instead of losing money.

As for my first question, I wonder why you would want to sell such a big box set of Naruto when it's probably extremely hard to find now. Just my opinion, although I'm no fan of Naruto, like most animes.

I bought them all off Amazon about 1.5 years ago at about $30 each.

I see what you mean. Checking on Amazon the "version" I have is becoming scarce and Amazon has listed a new version with a new design on the covers. So I see your Point.

EDIT

I changed it to: Bid $200 and Buy Now $250.

I need the money to buy some retro gaming stuff and I have seen all the episodes already and know where I can watch them for free online.

I updated the price to $180 (bid) and $235 (buy now) and removed free one-day shipping.

Also I will be using the money to buy the new Naruto box sets (which have 6 disks instead of 3 like the old ones; the ones I have).
