In the upcoming months I will be selling my collection. I have been collecting since 1981, and buying on eBay since 1999. I need to sort through my shelves and displays and go through my files to see what I payed for some of these items, others I bought as they were released in the 80's. That is why I have multiples of some of the more sought after Smurfs and Playsets.
I was wondering if I could get some opinions as to the value of these rare items? I have over 400 photos and my collection is well over 9,000 figures and accessories. I know I'm leaving a lot unmentioned but here is a starter list as I work through my unique displays.
