    Really awesome deal and great collection!! Subscribing to the channel :)
    A lot has changed since i bought my 3 games pricewise though. Bought my Addams Family in 2011 for 1800 euros. My new Transformers LE combo for 6700. Apparently 10.000 is now low cost? :)

      Thank you for the subscription. For those of us who have been around for a bit, the new prices do take some getting use to. 0n the other hand, for the next couple of days we have a contest running until midnight cst on 4/4/24 for a FREE Elton John banner. Just like, and comment on this video. ua-cam.com/video/nDAvMtIrgek/v-deo.html If you are still in the land of euros, you would need to pay shipping, but the banner is free!

    I pondered the thought of selling everything too. But not in bulk. Id want top value. I cant imagine how Id feel after theyre all gone & would have to focus on my next "hobby" in order to not feel too much regret.

      We have sold a decent amount of games over the years, but have always had at least one since the late 80s. I don't know what I would do if they were ever, all gone.

      Imagine selling all your pins in bulk for $250k and then watching the buyer resell them for $50k - $150k more?! Ouch! This was not the smartest way to liquidate a valuable high end collection but certainly was the quickest. I would have called Bill Ramsey or captains and let them do their thing.

    • @TiltTrek
      @TiltTrek  Рік тому +1

      @@donh1511 it is very interesting. The sometimes hassles during selling are real. Meeting requests only to have people back out due to the distance that was posted in the original listing, is a real example of some of the yuck. Then there are the people who aren't even thinking of buying, but feel their opinions on price are something we all need to be aware of, just make you ask why am I doing this? But... For $100,000 I can put up with a ton of BS.
