Another thing to consider is sell when you DON'T need to. Sell least likely to build or lowest on pile. Rest becomes easier. I'm sitting on tons, and I did show first time in >decade. Needed extra table, sold huge amount of fairly rare stuff for reasonable prices, on stuff I hadn't looked at, were dupes, or "why did I buy that" kits. Ebay is notoriously high on ask prices, look at actual sales prices. I'm a vulture for collections, but I always try to be fair. I've bought collections to get one piece, sold the rest on. Been on chemo for 4 years, not getting better, so planned long before to have friends pick what they want to build, and sell the rest. Families won't want to become kit vendors of dead guys stuff, and I only buy readily saleable fun cars to drive too. Nobody wants to drive a dead guys cars either. Morbid, but practical. Good luck to all of you.

It's all about the time and effort.

Those who want a quick out take the wholesale offer and have minimal time into the transaction.  They are done and over with.

Those who want to make a bit more, must invest their time and efforts into it. There is a cost of doing business too, which is the eBay fees, boxes and supplies, or table fees and travel costs for shows.  When you see retail prices understand that those are the reward for their work, minus the costs they've paid.

 

 

This pretty much sums up the whole discussion.

Agreed....... & too bad Tom's post wasn't the first reply & last - we could have been spared the B.S  that should have been deleted. 

And what B.S, would that be??
