listen man, DO NOT SELL YOUR COLLECTION! you will regret it so much. if you need exra money just sell your loose joes on ebay and mabe your yellow stalker. with just that alone im sure youll come close to getting around 800 dollars. it is hard keeping up but youll get a break when the movie stuff comes out. plus theres so much good stuff to come! i would keep all the moc stuff bro. your collection is worth in the 2000 range all day. its up to you though but im telling you you will miss it if you sell it.

Keep it man, it's a sunk cost at this point. the cash you might receive won't make up for the collection...besides you don't want to be stuck with seller's remorse. It will cost you alot more to put that collection back together in a few years when you wish you still had it.

Listen to the guys on the Tank, buddy. These guys know what they are talking about. I have been part of the Tank for a little while and know that what they are saying is true. They have good advise when it comes to Joes. If you sell it, you will definitely miss it. Your collection is Great! I wish I had half of what you have. DON'T SELL!!!!!

Don't do it....you got a nice collection. Take a break if you need to. Somebody here will surely hook you up with anything you miss while taking a rest. I've felt the same way you do just about every other day. I'm all or nothing myself, so I know where you're coming from.

I'm selling a mans entire Joe collection. On this very site no less.
He already regrets it.
We tried to talk him out of it but he's in such a panic over the divorce and trying to get money for it he wouldn't listen. So we're selling it for the prices he set so as to move it as quickly as possible. His collection is five times what yours is. Goes all the way back to his childhood. Now he has nothing but his memories of it left.
My advice is this, if money is that tight then sell the rarer or loose figures to get the money you need. To sell your collection whole or piece meal will hurt you no matter how you do it. One is no less than the other. Keep your stuff.
I've heard about the girl friends and wives for eleven years at my hobby shop complaining about how "he should be spending it on me. and this is stupid." and on and on and on. Don't give in, this is what you enjoy, you have your hobby, she has hers. And trust me there are ladies out there that enjoy this stuff too. My two best friends are married to wonderful women that enjoy their collections of Joes too! My girlfriend collects sci-fi related toys.
Keep it and pass it on to your kids someday.
Anyway after the movie comes out it will be worth far more.
Don't make a mistake for the sake of someone else.
Keep your stuff.

If the Joes were worth tens of thousands of dollars, then I could understand him fighting over it. But $1000-$2000 isn't worth the hassle and the pain. You'd spend much more over legal fees.
