Lot Generalmajor Bernhard Beye

[Knuckles930]

Genossen,

Recently I've been offered this nearly complete set from Generalmajor
Bernhard Beye by a friend of mine. It was bought around the time the wall
came down.

Note that these listed are the Urkundes, not the actual medals:

Ehrennadel in silber

Bester sportler

Verdienstmedaille der Deutschen Reichsbahn

Urkunde Motorisierte Schutzendivision

Urkunde Eile mit Meile

Fur hohe leistungen

Urkunde fur aktiven Wehrdienst 1959-1990

Bester Sportler 2

Fur 20 jahrige Dienstzeit

Verdienstmedaille in Silber

Urkunde Akadmischen Kurs

Verdienstmedaille der Nationalen Volksarmee in Gold

Urkunde fur hohe Leistungen (mit Foto)

Kampforden fur Verdienste um Volk und Vaterland in Bronze

Urkunde fur Verbildliche Diensleistungen

Fur de Waffenbruderschaft in Silber

Die Ehrenmedaille zum 40 Jahrestag DDR

Urkunde 25 Jahre Treue Dienste

Urkunde fur 30 Jahre Treue Dienste

Fur Gute Leistungen zur erhohung der gefechtsberitschaft der N. Volksarmee



Further it includes:

Dagger with presentation box (no Urkunde)

Partymember book with photo

Letter of thanks by the State secretary for ending service

Both the seller and my friend are not into DDR collecting, so I was
asked what the price for such a lot would be. Having little experience
with ether General lots or Urkundes, I turn to my genossen here.
From the photos I've seen, everything is in good condition.

This would be my first lot to buy and a General's lot.

Genossen,

Both the seller and my friend are not into DDR collecting, so I was
asked what the price for such a lot would be. Having little experience
with ether General lots or Urkundes, I turn to my genossen here.

I am really not trying to be funny here, but the lot is worth as much as you are willing to pay for it and/or as little as the seller is willing to accept for it. There cannot be any set values for lots like this. They are unique and you cannot possibly find anything to compare with it that has a know and as sold value. Start by pushing the seller to name a price that he would accept for it or name a price that you are willing to pay for it and then take it from there ... good luck. Cheers, Torsten.

Well the Urkundes and all the documents Im not sure of what pricing is like for lots like that but the dagger in box is a whole other story even without the Urkunde correct?

yes, there are guide prices for most of the individual items included with the lot, but a price for the complete lot is a different story ... and any guide prices would only be that, a guide with a range attached to it and no more than that ... Cheers, Torsten.

[Knuckles930]

Well to start off, here some photos to get an idea.















Like Torstenbel noted, its difficult to put a price on a set like this. One could
check the price for each item and add up, but that's not quite the same as
a lot like this.

But as I noted before, I'm new to something like this and some guidelines
are useful. Guess I do have to just jump in and see how it goes.

If I were in your position, I would probably work out a formula, perhaps take a fair market price for each individual piece and add 20%. It's hard to figure out a fair price for something like this, so just do your best to make the deal something both you and the seller are happy with.
