Set Value (New/Sealed)

This chart represents the current new/sealed value of the set 4 Car Auto Transport since June 1970. Medium accuracy
LEGO 157-3 4 Car Auto Transport was a 65 piece Samsonite set released in 1970. It was released in only in the United States as a Sears exclusive. The set itself came in a full color box sold in stores and later in a plain brown mailer box from the Sears catalog. The color box showed LEGO HO 1:87 scale cars, however, Samsonite ran out of the HO 1:87 scale cars and LEGO had already discontinued manufacturing the cars, so Samsonite substituted Minix cars.

The current value for a new and sealed 4 Car Auto Transport is estimated at $395 with an average yearly gain of about 8%. The current used prices for 4 Car Auto Transport can be found in the range of $235 and $288 depending on the set's condition, with an average price of $240 if it is in good overall condition.
4 Car Auto Transport is an extremely old and very rare LEGO set. We have not seen set 157-3 currently for sale online or in the hundreds of retail stores in good/new condition in over 811 days. Because of the rarity of this hard to find set the current estimated value of $394.76 might actually be much lower than the true value, assuming this set can be found for sale.Because 4 Car Auto Transport is a very old set from 1970, finding it in a sealed and good condition might be difficult thus making the true value even that much higher.
