I am thinking about selling my entire collection

travismp · 05-12-2009, 02:43 PM

I am thinking about selling off my entire collection. I want to sell everything at once and not piece by piece. Would eBay be my best option for this type of auction? I have around maybe 30+ carded figures, 160+ individuals, 50+ vehicles, a ton of extras, and a couple simple dioramas.

Zenfolio | Travis's Pictures | GI Joes

Here is a link to see the bulk of the collection in high res images. (When you are viewing an image you can right click and select download original to see the high res image.)

Could someone take a quick look at this to see what I might be able to get realistically for this entire collection? I would be happy if I could manage to get $1000 even but I do not know if I am asking too much at that point.

I would definitely pay US $1.000 for your collection but sadly for both of us I live in Argentina and it's almost impossible to ship so much stuff :(

were in kansas are you located?

I am in Hutchinson KS. I know the GI Joe convention is in KC this year which is 4 hours from my house. I would be willing to drive my entire collection there to sell it to one person.

Nice collection! I've never seen those multi-colored Fireflies before. I'm sure you can find someone willing to buy your collection in one fell swoop. Ebay is a good route to consider.

I would think you could get more than 1000 for it. That is a very impressive collection...

I get to Topeka every once in a while not too often. I would cut you a great deal on shipping!!!

If for some reason I HAVE to piece it out I will start here. I just do not have too much free time to mess with it.

i sold a friends collection on e-bay a year ago and got a total of 875.00 for it all and he had boxes (minus all e-bay fees & paypal fees) it was going to be like 1100.00 before ebay got theres
.

I don't think it's too much. Maybe too little in the end, but selling the whole lot piecemeal can take a while. I imagine some ebay seller may take it off your hands for at least that. But then ebay is going to want their cut.
