Still Raindrop Posted August 14, 2011 Posted August 14, 2011 Hi, everyone; I have a question concerning selling/auctioning off some MOCs. Lately I've felt like it would be a good idea to put my hobby to a good use and sell/auction off a few of my MOCs, then donate the money to Sonrise/Mustard Seed (an orphanage and school in Rwanda). I was thinking of selling my beach scene (which you can see soon, although I have since completed it and improved it; when I do sell it, I will have new pictures up): Here is the rough, uncompleted version. I was also thinking of auctioning one of the buildings from my street scene (these have also been improved some): you can see it here. So, these are my questions: 1. Do you think I could actually do it? Are my MOCs good enough to auction like this? 2. If so, which building from my street do you think would raise the most money? 3. How much do you think people would be willing to pay? Hope to hear from people soon--thanks for looking!
frogstudio Posted August 14, 2011 Posted August 14, 2011 That's REALLY nice from you!!! I actually think they will raise quite a nice ammount. Concerning the street building, to me, the most "auctionable" is the ice cream parlor. Good luck with it!!!!
Still Raindrop Posted August 14, 2011 Author Posted August 14, 2011 Thanks! I forgot one more question: should I do it here on Eurobricks? (would I be allowed to?) Or should I do it on some other website? I like the idea of doing it here, but I'm not sure.

I like the idea of doing it here, but I'm not sure. I would use ebay for auctions, but before you post it, try to get a lot of exposure using various LEGO fan sites or even real life fan sites related to the item you are selling.
roamingstop Posted August 15, 2011 Posted August 15, 2011 The Brothers Brick have helped organise charity auctions before; with items somehow listed on Bricklink... they might know a bit more.
Still Raindrop Posted August 16, 2011 Author Posted August 16, 2011 Thanks, everyone--I think I know how I'm going to auction it now. I would like some more input on my other questions, though--which one should I sell, and how much do you think I should sell it for?
