How much do you all think a NM/M #22 Pontiac F box is worth?

Hi Tony

I would say about 100 to 150 Dollar for a 85-90 near mint Box.

On ebay the best one we have seen made well over £300 so if properly described it will attract German deep pockets!

Well, I offered $1000.00 for it and was told that I was a lowballer on it. They want $1800.00, so I was just wondering if it is worth that much.

Seems an awful lot for a box - even one as rare as this. It's only worth $1800 if someone is prepared to pay that much. The best method to decide the true value would be to auction it with appropriately detailed description somewhere where it gets maximum exposure with a low start. $1 start will guarantee a good price!

Cheers,
Gavin

I was offered 850 GB Pounds for my one and that was about 2 years ago, and I knocked it back. Not to try and get more money put because I only had one and I needed it for my collection.

One of the rarer boxes the 22c "F" Box. I paid less than $20.00 for this box and the model, but that was about 20 odd years ago. also there was not all the hype about boxes until the internet came along for so many collectors. Even Mike Stannard has not got it listed this 22c "F" box in his book.
