I have a very large collection and I was thinking about parting with some of it to pay off the rest of my car. I just had a few questions.

1. Which price guide do you use to calculate the value of your collection?
2. If sold as a whole how much do people normally take off?
3. With the fee's is it worth selling on eBay?

1. eBay end prices.
2. Depends on what's being sold.
3. Yes. It takes forever to sell certain things and there's less hassle with people trying to wing free shipping on eBay. Also, there's fewer rippers on ebay.

I've sold my collection several times (sad face). It really depends on how fast you need the cash. Obviously you'd get more by piecing the collection out. Sometimes I've even only sold the cards worth over a certain amount and just held onto the rest.

1). ebay prices
2). depends on if they need all of the cards in the lot. whenever i BUY collections i usually just add up cards i need and cards I know i can sell easily and i bulk the rest.
3). It's worth selling on ebay if you can't find a buyer anywhere else willing to pay that much. i've sold hundreds of magic auctions on ebay.

Well its mostly legacy staples. I doubt anyone needs ALL the cards. Sounds like I should probably piece it out.
