Megospidey ~

Thank you very much for the information. I think I have much of what you suggest done; pictures ready to post, detailed in formation in a spreadsheet (i.e. condition, flaws, if anything is missing), boxes with which to ship,

Ideally what I would like to do is auction them off, going to the highest bidder. I am parting with these only because I am leaving for the far side of the globe (in 40days, 8hrs, 29min and an odd number of seconds - but who is counting) for a minimum of 100 days and with no real plan to come back. I would like to make sure these cherished memories from my childhood are well cared for by going to a person(s) who will appreciate them as I do/did. Moreover, on a more practical plane, this will help me start the next grand chapter of my life. I look at this as a win/win for everyone concerned.

My real issue is pricing. To me as a collection it is priceless, having said that, I am not so much of a romantic that I blinded to the reality that while these items are only worth what someone is willing to pay for the. Truthfully, I do not want to gouge nor exploit anyone. I am looking for fair market value. (plus shipping ) I was going to take price examples from; This Site, EBay & worthpoint.com to set a price. (Shipping would be set by the post office.) Unless there is a better place to find out what the market value is.

Again, any help, suggestion and/or guidance will be happily accepted.

Thank you

The best way to list these is in the marketplace section. Take a picture of them in groups, give brief descriptions of each figure or playset (mainly condition of the item), above or below the picture -- and your price and terms (paypal, money orders, etc.). Make sure you include either a shipping price or the fact that shipping is included in the price.

You can use photobucket to upload the pictures. Then just copy and past the url into the ad.

Welcome to the museum - and bon voyage!

& Greetings Fellow Collectors ~

Recently I have been giving an opportunity to visit far off and distant lands and have decided to take advantage of the offer. That being said I am divesting myself of everything I own and pulling up stakes.

To that end I am looking to give my beloved childhood toys a new and proper home. As each one is priceless to me, it is difficult for me to estimate their value. I have been looking around the Mego forums and I did my best to price things accordingly.

While many of the items are in very good shape they all have been “pre-loved” by me, in my youth. I will do my best to highlight the good and the not so good facts as to accurately represent them.

This weekend I will finish up picture taking and item description and I will start listing items on Monday. Any advice or suggestion will be happily accepted.

I am breaking them into groups

Star Trek
POTA TV/Movie
Playset
Super Heroes
Super Villains

NON-Mego
G.I. Joe items
