What do you guys think are the most sought-after pieces in the game? By this I mean, what are the most valuable pieces in the game according to real world cash?

Boba BH is hardly a $60 figure anymore. Even $45 is a little high from recent goings-on. Revan is up in that range as well. Here's a few others where the prices get pretty high (still 30+ on occasion) Vader's Apprentice Unleashed Darth Sidious (CS) Mandalore the Ultimate

The AT-AT is $50 and you get a map to go with it as well if you buy it in a store as part of a boxed set. Boba Fett, Bounty Hunter/Darth Revan/Cad Bane. All three are going for a little over 50.00 if not 60.00 in the case of Boba Fett.
Now for desireability, Jango Fett, BH/Mouse Droids/Cad Bane/Boba Fett, BH/Darth Bane/R2-Astro/GG,DAC/Sidious Holo/A'Sharad Hett/and VAU (though VAU less than others..., most people have already traded for him and too many of us are playing the trade bait game with him.)
There are definitely lesser mentions when it comes to highly sought after pieces. But I believe these are the ones that most of us are really itching to get our hands on if we don't already have them.

Yeah, have to echo what the others are writing. I have recently been on a spending spree in an attempt to acquire every mini ever made. I've noticed that Boba BH, Cad Bane, and Darth Revan are always the most expensive coming in around $35 - $50. I will add that the next tier includes Boba Mercenary, Captain Rex, Aurra Sing (from CS) and Jango BH, all in the $25 range, followed by any charcter whose name contains Darth from the Champions of the Force set. Those all seem to be costing me about $20 a piece. I know I'm missing a few like Mandalore and others, but I'm just going from recent memory. If you want to fork out the dough on minis, just look for the ones mentioned here and in previous comments.

Universe Rancor has been up there close to $40 for some time now... And it is an awesome sculpt.

A'Sharad Hett has recently become difficult to get on the cheap.

it sickens me to see the cads going for so much since i had 3 of them. i got 1 from my case, then i played in a sealed tourney where 1st place prize was a cad and 1 booster and i got a cad in the 1 booster for winning. i sold the 2 extras for 25$ at the shop when i won them.

I got my AT-AT for $40 and 2 friends each got one for $35 + figures in their lots. I've seen Boba BH going for alot less these days. Cad Bane seems to be pushing around $45. Most of the Sith Lord VRs have been holding double digits.

MOST EXPENSIVE: COLOSSAL: AT-AT HUGE: Felucian Warroir on Rancor LARGE: Destroyer Droid (CS) ----VR wise, Emperor Palpatine on Trhone VR: Boba Fett, Bounty Hunter; Darth Revan; Cad Bane R: Destroyer Droid (CS); Storm Commando; Vader's Apprentice Redeemed UC: Mouse Droid (hands down) C: Uggnaught Demolitinoist hope that was accurate! :)

But how can you justify A'Sharad Hett being worth as much as Boba, BH or Cade Skywalker, BH? Look at Kir Kanos. He can murdernate A'Sharad and yet is worth less. Kinda silly to me to be honest.

I think it's got to do solely with his availability. Auggies was going crazy trying to fill their preorders of him. I kick myself everytime I see him on ebay because he was the only unique I wanted that I didn't preorder from Dark Times, because I was sorta 'meh' on his sculpt.

Asharad certainly seems to have been in relatively short supply for what we would normally expect.

No he was not. I suggest considering the source of that information, and think about how reliable that source is. The short supply rumor is an internet rumor. It started because Auggies didn't pull as many as the others and paid high prices early on for it to fill their pre-orders. Of course their pre-orders were high, because Hett was the chase VR as well which compounded it. Other retailers followed suit and upped their prices quickly. That's all this was based on, nothing further. Sean doesn't know any insider information, he's just misleading you. There was no shortage of Hett. We've seen more than enough information to know it's nothing more than an internet rumor.
