Dear Donna,
Would you have any information on the value of this set? I am interested in selling it. There are no blemishes that I can see.

Dear Nancy,
I have to start off by saying Hummels are a sad subject (interesting history to read about, though). They are so sweet and the figurines are so well done but they don’t seem to fit in anywhere anymore, so values on them can be as low as 10 cents, even the older ones, West Germany ones, Full Bee, etc. There were so many made in duplicates and brought here after World War II that many homes have some. It was a very popular collection for people for many years.
So when pricing them today you need to figure out where the real value is. Older ones are better, and condition is key. There can be no damage, not even a tiny chip, flake or crack. The mark on the bottom is very important as well. You can do most of this research online. So I would do the research, then try to find some that have sold and are not just listed for sale. That should give you an accurate place to start. Nativity pieces seem to be more desirable than common figurines, for example.
My value on the ones you have would be in the $150 range for the set. But saying that, it still could be tough to sell.
