assessing collection
 

Hello! I used to be a toy collector back in my teens to mid twenties. As a result I have many tubs of toys from the late 80's to early 2000's that have been hiding back at my parents' house. Now that my parents are moving I have to take possession of them again, and well, I'm not a collector anymore and have little interest in storing them or displaying them.

Most of the toys are Marvel, DC, Star Wars, Star Trek, or random stuff. I would say 95% of the collection is still unopened and in the box. I have a few things that are from the 70's and a few loose things.

What is the best way to assess a value of a collection? What is a decent price guide to reference?

Thanks for your input and help.

look up prices on ebay, thats the easiest and fastest way

Curious what you have, particularly Trek.


CCC.

Thanks @Tomax. I'll continue to monitor all eBay.

@LordMudd - I don't have all the toys yet. Half are at my place and the other half at parents... It won't be until the end of December before I get them all at my place. (They live about 500+ miles away from me)

Check the sold listings on ebay. that will show you how much people are willing to pay. Don't go off current ebay asking prices. that's what people wish their stuff would sell for. I do buy collections, let meknow when you when you have a ballpark figure and we can talk.
