both beyblades are blue and new
Then no. This is from Oki right? His prices for non prize beys from random boosters are rubbish. No one wants them yet he charges a lot for them.

Was that price accurate? I've never seen one before.
Yea. The purple thunder Pegasus is worth that much
And ya,I remember oki or Beyderandy saying it was worth 400usd
You mean the two sellers who are generally overpriced told you that... Not sure they're reliable. I seriously doubt anyone will pay $300 for that.

If it was the Dark Blue one maybe. (Isn't that arguably one of the rarest Plastics in existence and roux is the only WBO member who has one?)
How much would a used lime green Rushing Boar cost? I'm guessing around $35-40?
Wow, quite a discussion about that TP.

I´ve been watching that particular listing of Oki´s for maybe about one and a half years and this Thunder Pegasus was listed for 30.000 Yen, which was 300$that time, at the beginning and remained listed for about a year, unsold. Then he seems to have realized that nobody was willing to pay that much and reduced it to 28.500, which was 229$, just like Ultra said. It looks like somebody was finally willing to pay that much.
I´m not surprised that two
sellers suggest that it was absurdly valuable, since they earn money by selling them. If I wanted to have a certain amount for a particular item - no matter if that amount is really justified or not - of course I would tell everybody that it´s even worth more and my item is actually a snap to make them buy it. That´s the most common sales strategy. Nevertheless, it´s a fact that an item´s maximum value is simply the highest value that people are ready to pay for it. So, if something listed for 300$ remains unsold for a very long period and doesn´t seem to be ever sold for that price, that thing is obviously just not worth that much. Even a statement from a famous seller won´t change that fact. TP went hardly for 229$ and that´s why we can say that this is its current maximum value, no matter, if somebody insists of it being 300 or even 400.
This goes all for the purple version. For the other, super rare version, I agree with Wombat. I´m positive there are people, who are ready to spend 300 for a sensation like that, even though I highly doubt it would be 400.
As for the lime green Rushing Boar: Yes, 35$ is about the price it´s going for at the moment.
About Apollon and Venus: Nope, that´s definitely too much. There´s no-one willing to pay more than 90-100 for them and like Ultra said, Oki may be a very good and reliable seller in general, but his Booster Prize Beyblades are just overpriced. Just keep watching the listing and you´ll see that it won´t go for that price.
Please th!nk about it...
