Sorting Out and Selling Stuff
Hi
As some of you may be aware, my son and I have made a start on the Storage Container.
i am somewhat out of date on prices.
Some of my antiques have seriously fallen in value.
Guy is far more up to date than me with his collectables, some of which he has made huge profits on, in particular his Cinema Memorabilia.
What has surprised us both is that some things we thought were of no value have become collectable.
Books and DVDs for example, a limited edition of Battlestar Galxtxtatica went for £45 .
Tiny little plastic stuff from Warhammer and obscure Japanese games are fetching a mint.
I had not properly sorted through my Dads stuff, that was still in boxes, he had kept the boxes from our toys, neatly folded.
The toys are long gone, but the boxes are mint.
Apparently toys are worth far more in their original boxes.
Put them online and a dealer was round the next day.
Offered £80 for them, told him I had others coming, he then gave us £300 for them.
Moral of this story, check things before you take them to the Charity Shop.
