Re: New Member looking for advice regarding 1:200 744 collection
I too am a 747 enthusiast (I've posted pics of my collection, just do a search).
With regard to your list, the Lufthansa and United "Battleship" are very sought after models, and usually command in the $350 - $500 range, or more. Neither come up for sale often, and when they do, there is inevitably a bidding war.
The Cathay Pacific and Singapore "Megatop" can be found relatively easily for less than that. I've seen those models go for around $200.
The KLM has just been re-released (several threads currently are active concerning it), and may still be available for pre-order from some retailers. My "Cargo" version was pre-ordered for $159. The original IF200 release reached over $1000 USD prior to the announcement of the re-release.
As others have mentioned, your combination of several very popular models + "shallow pockets" does not bode well for your success.
Good luck with your search.
