Seriously, I have 200+ unopened Matchbox cars in their original plastics/cardboard containers in an air tight bag.

What do you think they worth?

That Europa is worth approximately all of my wants.

Probably $400 total if you are lucky and some the stuff you have is desirable. Most likely $300 or even sub-$200 if the market determines your collection is not worth it.

I know less about Matchbox than I do about Hot Wheels, but it depends on what you have. Obviously some will be worth more than others, but for a rough estimate puy a $ in front of however many cars you have. You can at the very least get $1 for each, I would imagine, though the Lesney editions like this Europa cost more than that in the store.

Do you have any Mustangs?
