Hi,
I would like to ask for some advice/help. I have three replica Lord of the Rings swords, I’m not sure of maker as they are stored at my Mum’s but I can check, that I reluctantly wish to sell. I have owned them for over a decade and I have no idea of their current value or where I could sell them. Are you able to, or know anywhere that could, value the swords? Also, would a site like eBay be the best place to sell them or do you know of anywhere that might purchase them?
Thank you so much for your help.

For identification they could be United Cutlery if they are stainless steel and approved replicas. Google the UC LotR collection and see if they look alike. New ones are in the 200-400$ range. I am unsure about resale, but eBay might work best. You could try selling them here in the forum, but I would wager most won't want the stainless steel stuff unless it is a very good price.

Perhaps list good pictures of them under the "fantasy swords" general discussions area? I and many others here are quite familiar with just about every version of the LOTR swords that have ever been made. So I would be quite surprised if I or others here could not identify them. That would be my best suggestion. Or, there is a lots of the rings weapons collectors Facebook page you could try. But they don't really deal with functional versions, almost exclusively just the LOTR wall hangers. So depending what you have, they may or may not be able to help. Once we identify them, that group can also be a great place to sell them, especially if they are the official replicas. Let me know if you need more help!

It can be United Cutlery or maybe Noble Collection. Without pics it's very difficult to know about that.
The UC ones, near the guard, are engraved with UC and four numbers
