I'm looking to sell a June 2004 letter, and I wanted to know about what it's worth right now, and if it would be terribly difficult to sell.

The one MP listing has it at 15M and I'm not sure I can trust that, considering each item in it is worth just over 7M.

Opinions?

I also wanted to ask - regarding 2004 letters (the decent ones, not the ones such as the Feb. letter containing the Zony items), are they particularly hard to sell? About how much do the high-end ones go for? Would it be better to take a letter that seems inflated and open it to sell the item?

I'd go as low as 8.2mil... well from 8 mil to 8.5mil.
Oh and click the "show graphs" button below the picture of the item.
And below the try it on button.
It shows you the average price every day on the left and how much it sells per day on the right. :3

Imo, the letters are worth more than the items themselves.
Because you have a choice of which item you want. Therefore, they are somewhat inflated and well if someone just wanted a Horns Of The Demon they would just buy the actual item instead of the letter because they'd be actually "overpaying" for it.
But maybe if they just want the letter for some other reason (maybe they can't decide or are holding onto it as in investment item) then they'd probably buy it. Makes sense?

I know all about the 'show graphs' button, but that doesn't tell me anything about people who buy via trades instead of the MP. I was looking for an experienced exchanger to tell me about how often they see these up for sale, and when that happens, roughly how much they go for.

And most people hoard these as investment items - I'm asking (again, a question for experienced exchangers) if anyone can tell me how popular it is for people to continue to hoard these letters, since I mostly see people trying to sell them.

well, people use to go check the graphics before they complete the trade, to be sure they are not paying extra or to be sure they are not selling for a low price. and the graphics says people buy it for 7.5 to 8 mil.
so probably no one will trade it for such a high price (unless they don't care about how much they're loosing, i'd say)...
but hey, it's just my oppinion.
