“Great communication and fair and transparent offer”

Mark B.
2/9/24

I recently corresponded with transformerland.com about selling a decent-sized collection of vintage action figures from the 70s and 80s. They were fast at communicating. They were fair and transparent in their offer, and the offer they made was competitive and reasonable. In the end, I sold to a local collector for less than what transformerland.com offered just to avoid having to box and ship a collection consisting of several hundred items (probably a thousand little pieces if you count helmets, guns, backpacks, vehicles, etc). The collector even grumbled that with the last collection he tried to purchase, he was out-bid by transformerland.com. So this seems like a great company to deal with, at least on the front end when it comes to getting an initial offer. I can't speak to any more than that. But if you have a collection you're considering selling, reach out to them!

“Is anyone there?”

Twice I've sent emails asking for a quote on figures. No response, and it has been a month. If I'm not worth your time, you're not worth mine.

As an adult, I have been cleaning out my toy collection and selling my old toys or broken ones and came across the ones that I either regret breaking or regret selling. After an ebay buy on a replacement toy, the seller (TransformerLand) informed me of their website. I have found the ones that I missed out on and some new ones that I never consider. Great service all around.

Matt has attributed such a wealth of knowledge and archive material to this niche of the market. I have found Transformerland to have some of the fairest prices, buying and selling, without the hassle of auctions or haggling. A real one-stop-shop for transformer collectors and sellers of all generations and series. Thank you Matt. You're my go-to.

Tip for consumers:
Give a day or two for Transformland to respond to a request or quote. This is a very busy guy, for good reason!

I had some items that I was looking to sell. I contacted Matt at Transformerland. He replied immediately showing great interest in a professional manner. He was very helpful through the whole process and keep great communication. All in all a great website to work with and purchase from. I recommend using Transformerland for toy buying and selling purposes.

I had a great experience selling some of my old Transformers. I had a couple of boxes at my parents and they gave me a call and said it was time for them to go. I did a few searches on how best to sell them online, and after reaching out to a few sites, transformerland.com responded quickly and had a well laid out process on how to sell the toys. Matt asked for a few pictures and a couple follow-up details, but then we quickly proceeded to a transaction.

Clearly it can be tough doing business via email, but we got on the phone, he was able to talk through the pieces with me and discuss condition. He then made me an offer, and arranged all the shipping and coordination. Payment was timely, the offer was more than fair, and he made the process seamless (and this is from somebody who does not regularly sell items online).

My guess would be everything would run as smooth on the buy side as it did on the sell side, but I would highly recommend doing business with transformerland.com.

Was easy and simple. I emailed pics of my collection. We agreed on a price. I followed Matt's packing and shipping instructions and shipped the collection. TransformerLand sent a check. Done. Ch-Ching!
The highly positive reviews provided confidence leading into the transaction. I figured the least I could do was add confirmation.

I was in a quandary about what to do with my old collection of rare transformers. Matt's site made it easy for me to sell the whole collection, and at a fair price. The transaction was easy and Matt is friendly and a pleasure to do business with. I will definitely be doing more business with him in the future, and I would highly recommend transformerland.com to anyone wishing to sell their Transformers, G. I. Joe, etc.

Thanks Matt!

I sold my entire collection to Matt. He communicated very well and in a timely manner, and was very polite and professional. He knew what he was getting via our communications and the pictures I sent. We worked out a price and he paid it upon review of the package, just like he said he would. No "bait and switch" or otherwise unsavory tactics. I've sold to other websites and when the package arrived, they lowered the price and said some toy or part was "missing or broken", conveniently for them. I've also had other sites call me a "jerk" and "rude" for being direct yet professional with them. None of this with Matt. He is the real deal and I will be selling him more items in the future.

When I contacted the website, I appreciated that Mr. Camaratta and the other staff members were very professional. They did not try to jerk me around at all. The monetary amounts were very reasonable and I will gladly do business with them again in the future! This is the website to go to if you're looking to purchase or sell Transformers, as well as other items! They're awesome!

This is a great site for anyone who collects transformers or are interested in reconnecting with their 80's nostalgic side. The service is great, the site is user friendly and has just about everything a transformer fan could want. I highly recommend it.

These guys have ACCURATE grading of their action figures. 8.5 is great, 8.0 is very good, etc. They also mention the paint wear and joint stiffness. Very accurate grading, buy with confidence! P.S. Great website, very easy to navigate. Keep up the great work!

From browsing the website to find what I want to buy (or information on items), to ordering and follow up, the Transformer Land crew takes care of their customers!

In the last year I've placed over 15 orders and I keep going back for more. I exhaust ALL options with Transformer Land FIRST before attempting to purchase the majority of my Transformer figures/accessories elsewhere.

I'm a happy customer, and I'll support them as long as they are around!

Thanks again!

Transformerland is a great site and I was very happy to find it. I was looking for a place to sell my old transformers since my children did not want them. Matt was great to work with and gave a fair price. If I find any others in the future I would definitely contact him again.

My experience with Matt was extremely smooth and pleasant. He made an offer for part of my collection, followed through to the end keeping his word and was very responsive through out the entire process. He's trustworthy and honest and I would refer him to anyone looking to sell their collection. Payment was prompt and any negotiations were easily agreed upon. An absolute pleasure to do business with and I look forward to doing more business with him in the future!

I saw all of the 5 star reviews on here before I first started to deal with Matt, and I thought "no way can it be this good". However, he proved me wrong. I had decided to sell off a bunch of my old Transformers, and went to him first before dealing with Ebay, he gave me a very very good price, didnt even have to haggle at all. I couldnt have had an easier time.

After inheriting a transformer collection - the value of which I had no clue - I visited the above website and found Matt to be both personable and knowlegeable. After completing the first transaction, I am looking forward to working with him in the future. Communication flowed, my questions were answered and the final money transaction was completed with no problems. I would highly recommend this site!

I went to Matt because I didn't want the hassle of selling each of my individual transformers on ebay. He gave me a fair price, easy process and generally very helpful. I was apprehensive about sending stuff abroad with no guarantee I'd get the money, but Matt paid the bulk of the funds up-front and swiftly confirmed receipt of the goods and paid the remainder. My garage is less full and my wallet is less empty!

Matt at Transformerland.com made selling my collection hassle free. His offer for my collection was very competitive, all correspondences were cordial and quick, and the payment transaction was smooth. Transformerland.com makes the process of selling one's collection simple. I look forward to doing business with Matt and his crew again soon.

Just completed my first sale to Transformerland. It went as smooth as could be. Matt offered what I believe to be a very fair price on a significant lot of 80s robots, offered good communication throughout the process and paid *extremely* promptly. I definitely plan to sell more items to Transformerland as I wade through my collection. You should, too!

Matt was a great guy to work with. He knows what he's doing and helps you every step along the way, including how to cheaply ship your figures to him. I was pleasantly surprised with the quote I was given and happily accepted it. I definitely plan on doing business with him in the future.

As a child of the 80's, their site brought me back, looking at all the hard to find items listed and the good condition as well as the reasonable prices. I made my first purchase with them recently to fill in holes in my collection and the experience was top notch. Thank you Matthew and Tonya. -Hans

I was in the process of moving and had some Transformers I no longer wanted to hang on to. I found his site and got in touch with Matt. I sent him a description of what I had along with pics and he replied with an offer. Very fair, very responsive and very honest. Highly recommended. And his sight is a great resource for Transformers.

The whole process of selling a collection was quick, fair, and easy. I sent pictures of the collection and received a quote within 48 hours. Payment was also made to me in a timely manner. I would not hesitate to do business with Transformerland again.

Matt C. And company at Transformerland are fantastic. I'd been slimming down my Transformers collection off and on over several years and had reached the point where I couldn't keep up with selling every piece individually. Luckily, I had remembered about the excellent few purchases I had made back in the day at TFland, and sent along an email. Matt responded very quickly and through a few more messages we had worked out a deal for a very reasonable price. Highly recommended if you need to sell or if you just want to buy Transformers from some really nice folks.
