The value is in the eye of the beholder. Because they are just custom items, they can't fetch a good price on their own. It really depends on how the fanbase views them.

The weight of the gold would probably be the main factor and they can't weigh too much, can they?

I'd never heard of them before, is this something that they regularly stock/sell?

Why would anyone need or want such a thing anyway?

As far as I know that they are rare brickarm weapons made out of pure gold, so they aren't something common, but how much they are worth?? No clue. However much someone is willing to give to you.

The value of the gold itself is probably close to nothing, since the weapons are so teensy.

Personally, I do not know what is the market value for the 24k gold platted BrickArm weapon but considering that each can only be found in 1 out of 20 Mystery Pack Volume 1, I do think there is some value to it. However, personally it is all up to the interested parties and what you are comfortable of selling/trading with.

For those who are wondering what is Teardrop Thrashcan is talking about, BrickArms don't sell this 24k gold platted weapon and it was a limited random release for the BA Mystery Pack Volume 1 in mid-2011.

Here is an image of how it looks like,

Those actually looks pretty cool.
But I don´t really know that is there some much one can do with those, then showing of your minifig gangstas with some 24k gold weapons. :knight:
The collecters value on the other hand can be pretty good

Please do not use topics in the MCW (or other theme forums) to advertise your sales, especially when you already have a sales/trades thread in the dedicated forum. Thank you.
