She has the collection of toys from the 1970s and into the 80s. As we are downsizing, in looking at them I was just thinking garbage. We have been selling them on Ebay for surprising amounts. Someone just bought a 1990 Lost in Space Robot that half works for $60.
It is amazing what people collect and will pay to get.
To be determined

I had all the cool stuff that's worth major $$$, all the Star Wars stuff, GI Joes and He-man. Too bad I played rough and most was destroyed with m60s and black cats.
Just to make sure that it is done thoroughly, I go both ways.

Had a big G I Joe collection....several years ago my daughter did all the organizing and selling of it on Internet. I was shocked at the amount of money it went for.
