Mortal Kombat Tent Leftovers

I hope this is the right place to post this, but I've looked in a bunch of other places and have no idea what to do with these things, so I was hoping you guys might know what to do with it and would be honest with me.

After the Wal-Mart Mortal Kombat 9 tournament, I got three of the full walls from the competition tent. I wanted to use them as posters.





(Didn't want to take up site bandwidth so click the thumbnail to see a bigger image on photobucket).

My eyes were bigger than my mouth... or actually bigger than my walls and so now they're sitting in a corner, rolled up nice and neat but with nothing to be done with them.

I've had a few people offer to buy them from me ($60 was the highest offer) and that doesn't sound like a bad idea, but I have no idea what is reasonable to ask for them. To me they're dang near priceless in their amazingness! I just don't want to get taken advantage of if I do sell them, so what do you all think a good price is? Or do you think they're worth absolutely nothing?

Thanks for any help anyone is willing to offer. I've been trying to figure out what to do with them for a while now and really need to decide soon.
 
What are the dimensions? I'm guessing like 7ft X 3? If they're large like that, I bet you can get around $100 for each side. I know I've seen the Mk banners that were hanging in walmart go for 40-60 on ebay, and that banner is much smaller looking.
 
Wow, can't believe I forgot the measurements. Thanks for reminding me.

77 3/4" X 117"

That's about 6.4 ft X 9.75 ft (for those as math challenged as I without a calculator on hand).
 
Ya then you should be able to get at least 60 for each, no problem. Or I'll give you $20 if you'll do it out of the goodness of your heart :p
 
Ha! The goodness of my heart stretches very far (I gave away the front column of the tent for free because a little boy was upset he didn't get there in time for the competition), but my pockets, sadly, do not. Shipping on these things is going to be a small fortune.
 
$15 - $20 is conservative according to my scale (ship for Amazon all the time), packing material cost and oddly shaped package price.

Either way, I'm not just giving them away, folks. None of you are hitting me with sad, puppy dog eyes like the little boy was, so my empty fridge means more.

Still just trying to work out what a good price to ask for each one would be.

Alright so at most it would be around $30 according to UPS with no discount.
It's not an odd shape for a box truck. A 6ft tube 4-5" thick you can put anywhere. For USPS tiny trucks they might charge more.
Id ask 100 enable offers and see what happens on ebay.

I'd do this also. I'm sure it could go for around $100.

BTW Tara, I'd be willing to trade you my account on Hello Kitty Island Adventure for the banner. :p
