UPDATE 3/11: I've posted the complete list - rares, uncommons, and commons - for those that were interested in the complete lot. And I think I've replied to all e-mails, but if I've missed you, please send again.

A few of you have e-mailed with offers on singles. Right now I have a handful of people interested in the entire lot and since that's the easiest way to go, I'll be considering those offers first. If that falls through, however, I'll certainly be open to selling singles. Or if someone buys just all the rares or just the uncommons/commons, then I'll still be selling off whatever's left. I'll post an update as things progress. Again, thanks for all the interest and the offers.

.........................................................

They say that love makes you do crazy things and it must be true because I’m making the ultimate sacrifice by selling off the majority of my collection to help raise funds to give the one I love a surprise anniversary trip to the Fiji Islands like she’s always wanted. I’m mostly looking to sell early sets – Harbinger, Dragoneye and Archfiends – since they have the highest value and I’m more likely to get the money I need that way. Just curious if anyone here is in the market for the older sets? Rares, uncommons, commons...every is up for grabs.

As a side note, I’m not an online shop and I’m not eBay. I’m just an ordinary guy selling off a personal collection and hoping to get the most out of it. As such, I know I can’t compete with other stores and eBay auctions and whatnot. Prices will be roughly based around Zenako’s listings, though I’ll try to mark things down to what I consider reasonable, or tweak the price based on personal attachment to the pieces. As such, my prices probably won't be dirt cheap clearance low, as I'm really hoping to squeeze every penny out of my collection so I can really pull out all the stops for this trip.

Hiya,
I would only be interested in singles from them, and I beleive common census is that despie getting more for it that way, selling as a set is a lot quicker.

Zenako’s prices are imho top dollar prices, not average prices, so I think you would have more luck with ebay than maxmini's members.

Set up a list, I'd be willing more than likely to make you an offer for the whole thing at once more than likely. Just send me a message.

Couple of quick points. Sets tend to sell for about 50% of the Guide total for the minis from that set. So Harbinger Sets go for around $500 while the guide has them at a smidge over $1000. A general rule of thumb, the easier it is for you to sell them, the lower your total take will be, but that depends on how much you value your time and effort in making the sale.

Built the addition for this addiction, now on to the "gaming table" project....

Depending on what is on your list and in what quantities I might be interested in a chunk or so. I have multiple kids who play so I could help each of their collections.

Just wanted to thank everyone for the replies and e-mails. I wasn't really expecting anyone to buy the whole lot - it's a huge collection - though I'm certainly open to the option should I get the right price. And, as I said, I was just going with Zenako's list as a rough guideline. If I sell singles, almost all will be below the listed prices, but I'll still try to get the most I can from the high-end pieces (finding a balance between Zenako's listed prices, eBay auctions, and my own personal value on the minis).

I'll put together a complete inventory and hopefully have it up by week's end.

Also, if anyone's interested, I also have a pretty extensive library of 2nd Edition books, modules, and supplements. So, if there's anything you're looking for there, feel free to contact me.

Thanks again!
