They've been sitting in a box ever since, and I figured I'd see how much they're worth.

You can see the whole collection in the attached picture. About half of them have squashed packages, or slightly bent/warped cards, and the other half are about as close to perfect as I'd imagine you can find.

So what would be the best way to go about getting these appraised and/or sold?

Thanks!

Put em on Ebay with a starting bid of 700 bucks, take really good pics of the cardbacks and any imperfections as well. I can almost guarantee you'll get at least a couple grand for everything there. Whatever you do though, don't take it to a comic shop or pawn shop, they'll just try to lowball the hell out of you and score a sweet profit for themselves.
