Nobody wants a half-built dragon from an incomplete set. So be painfully honest in your description. “Missing one piece, but includes three random spare bricks from 1999” is oddly comforting. People love a mystery. They’ll buy your incomplete set just for the thrill of finding that missing piece on their own.
Also, bundle everything. Throw in a few extra wheels, a random yellow brick, and a poorly-drawn instruction sheet. The buyer will feel like they’ve won a raffle. You’ll feel like a magician who just turned clutter into cash.

Pricing: Don’t be greedy, don’t be a pushover
Check sold listings on eBay. If a set usually goes for £80, list it at £75 and call it a “quick sale.” You’ll get a message from a man named Dave within 20 minutes. Dave will say, “Can you do £60?” You say no. Dave will pay £75 because he knows what that set is worth. Dave always pays.
I once underpriced a Batmobile because I was hungry. A lovely woman named Patrice bought it for £40. It was worth £120. Never sell on an empty stomach.
