A For Parts listing is priced for what can be recovered from it rather than for use, so toys and games at this grade are worth roughly 25% of top price — $1 to $135 (about £1 to £100). A bulk lot or a broken set bought to complete another one. Collectors buy job lots specifically to fill gaps in what they already have.
Where the line falls
Toys are lost before they are broken: the box goes first, then the small pieces, and what survives is a set that is complete or is not.
For comparison, one grade up is Fair Toys and Games.

Listing at the For Parts grade
Photograph the whole lot spread out rather than heaped in a box. A buyer is scanning for specific pieces and cannot scan a pile.
Shots that carry the most weight in toys and games:
- Wooden Toys — The whole set laid out together, countable
- Action Figures — Individual shots of the more valuable figures, front and back
- Board Games — All the components laid out together on a plain surface
- Dolls — The face straight on in daylight, close enough to show paint condition
On a typical $68 listing, a marketplace charging 20% takes $14, one charging 13.6% takes $9 and one charging 10% takes $7. WishThrift charges neither side, so you keep the whole $68. Listing is free.
