I acquired these Thomas York "Frijoles Flats" buildings as part of a purchase of the remainder of a friend's On3/On30 collection.  He does not like working with plaster so he had the buildings recast in resin before he painted and assembled them.   My planned On30 layout will be based on the Tidewater, VA - Blue Ridge mountain area so I have no use for these buildings.

 

NOTE: one building is missing an end wall, there are four walls from a water tank, and a small partial building.

 

Where would be the best place to sell them?

Should I go to the trouble of trying to sell them individually or as a package?

What should I ask ($$$) for them?

First a question or two.  Do you have the original plaster castings or just the resin copies?  Do you have the instructions for the original kits?

 

If you had the original kits, I would estimate that they were worth between $75 and $100 for each kit [at least that was the going rate a few years ago].  With these kits being "copied" and partially completed, I would imagine that they might be worth less to people who like to do their own painting and detailing.

 

However, I would be willing to purchase some of the structures, depending upon their condition and if the instructions or original plaster castings exist.
