Yeah as alex stated, it's what someone is willing to pay. However, recently signs have been really hot and sellin for prices way over what they went in the past and what they shouldve gone for. Seeing that this is a sweet and very scarce sign (I've only seen it sell once) I would estimate a perfect condition one being able to sell for 300, but worth more around 200 IMO. Unfortunately you said yours is not perfect, but I would still be shocked if you couldn't get at least 150-175 for it.
Last one I saw on ebay sold for $201.50 + shipping back in Feb. 2009. Unfortunately, when I saved the listing, the pictures from didn't save to my computer for some reason so I can't compare the condition of the two. The description of the auction said there were some small cracks though
EDIT: I should mention that the one that was on ebay was pretty poorly listed as well (no mention of Zelda anywhere in the listing) so I think it could have easily went higher. That was the first one I had ever seen for sale since about 2005 when I started collecting displays so it's definitely a rare piece.
I bought that one for $200 in February of 09, it is at my store as soon as you walk in. Definitely a neat piece. The one I bought also has some flaws to it as well (the plastic is rather flimsy, not solid). One of my favorite non lighted promo items I own (tops is probably my NES Kirby's Adventure pillow looking thing
Haven't seen any since then, but honestly have not been looking specifically for this sign since then.
I personally like it. Link on the sign looks alot like his incarnations from Adventure of Link/Links Awakening. Those being my two favorite zelda games, I would be very interested in buy this.
Just want to make clear that I do not own this sign currently!!!
I might be able to buy it. As said it has quite some damage, cracks and so on. I was just curious if it was worth enough to go through all the trouble of acquiring it.
For the time being I will not go and get the sign, it is a long drive from my place and it will be very difficult to pack and ship such an item. I might get it in the future and will hold an auction on NA for it if I do. But for now I just don't feel like I want to go through all the troubles of getting and selling it.

As for price, its whatever someone is willing to pay. These don't pop up a lot, and, I think it would do pretty good now.
I think the last one that sold went for $150, but had a lot of cracking and such.
I would say value would be as deniz said: $150-175.

I hate to be the thread heel, but am I the only one who thinks this is one ugly-ass rendering of Link?
You're not the only one, Dan, don't worry

Yeah the sign looks more like Jay Leno then Link in my opinion. Still a cool item I had never seen before though.
