Selling Guide
Where to Sell
eBay, Etsy (as vintage), or Mercari. For a single item, eBay is best for reaching international collectors; Facebook Marketplace is better for local vintage toy bundles.
Selling Tips
Clean carefully with a soft damp cloth and mild soap to remove surface dirt. Use keywords like 'Vintage 1983', 'PVC Miniature', and '80s Toy'. Because shipping cost often exceeds individual value, consider bundling this with other 80s miniatures to increase profit margin.
