Massive Collection I want to get rid of but not sure how

[KittenBunny]

Hello All,
I have a massive collection tmnt figures, comics, and also tones and tones of random/rare/obscure ninja turtle stuff. I also have Masters of the Universe figures and vehicles, and playsets, and some batman and star wars things. Aswell as random comics and phantom comics especially.

Im selling because I have no room, and it stresses me out to the point I want to set the house on fire to be rid of everything along with me in it because Im battling severe trauma and illness and cant cope with things.

I only want to collect next mutation items, due to it being such a small line, i wont have a heart attack over it and its achieveable for me to stick to this line.

I have crates and crates... think like one of those people shown on those fan shows... like psychotic amount which i wish i never started, im actually ashamed of it. Anyway I have lose, moc, mint, and played with items etc. and due to this reason and my access issues, the first way i want to start trying to sell it to make it more manageable is to have people give me a 'wishlist' or let me know what they want or are after and that way I can let them know if I have it... if I thin out the collection or get better enough to I will then start being able to post specific things up... which i know is the usual way people sell things.. I wish someone could help me set up an ebay shop and do the admin etc for me and I would give them a heafty commission, so if anyone is in Sydney NSW and wants a new friend and business partner to have some fun and make some money with, pm me.. cuz being ill as i am i cant do it alone.

thanks

Do you have an ebay acount? That'd be your best bet.
If you don't send me an e-mail and I can help you out with that as well.

I have an ebay account but what I cant cope with is packing and doing all the things, like photos etc, due to physical, time, and mental/anxiety/post trauma/panic based limitations. And also the amount of commitments I have and how behind i am on things... the commitments I have? Basically Dr's appoitments everyday, then the rest of my time is spent suffering in bed. I could do it if I had someone to help me out, who could follow the whole process with me but currently I cant cope, my situation is so awful.

I love the turtles and the other toys and comics i have. But currently I have to shed as many of my posessions as possible due to the horrendous adversity i face, and the hideous situation i am in.

If you know anyone who knows anyone in Sydney NSW, is a fan of TMNT and wants to start up a store with me, help me and get a cut of the money, then Please get them onto me.

Its going to be sad for me to sell it all. The memories related to them. But my future is very bleak so I must seriously start preparing for it.

Hi everyone, Im so torn up about what to do. I dont know. Should I keep it all in storage 45 mins away in a fibro house which is one option but I think the Australian summers where heat gets up to 40 degrees celcius and in a fibro house this is severe, and just wait for the future to display it but my future is not so long, and thats sort of evading the problem, or do I sell it now and get rid of it. What I really needs is a buddy who can do the admin stuff for me. Is there anyone in Australia who can help me with this? I also need them to be a skilled enough collector to know what the value of my items are. Im willing to drive down with my collection interstate and rent with someone for a while setting up shop if they have a house big enough. Because I dont think its going to work over the technodrome. The size and volumne is just too much.

As is the variance in goods... Someone please help me... ideas/solutions?

I will also post a bussiness buddy wanted in the forum somewhere else but not sure where?

Honestly, if it is that stressful for you (and I can totally relate to that, as this is often exactly how I feel about my stuff), the best thing you can do for yourself is give it away. Not necessarily all of it, but enough of it to make what's left manageable. Take the stuff least likely to sell for anything significant - so, say the loose and played-with stuff - and give it to a local charity. I have a Good Will drop off two minutes from where I live and I have been liberating myself from a lot of my stuff by just throwing it in a bag and dropping it off. Boom, done and gone. Then I would recommend dealing with what's left one box at a time. Take out a box from storage, either sell what's in it or give it away. Then when that box is empty, go back for box two. If you try to deal with the whole thing all at once, you will stay overwhelmed, but you could probably make decent progress if you broke it down into smaller parts. If you find yourself getting stuck, go and give more away. It is seriously liberating.

[TheCanadiandrome]

yeah i'd go with what Rose suggested

[andrewdsz]

just separate ur headache into 10 HUGE ass auctions on ebay, 88 turtles one lot, MOCs one lot, 2k3 collection one lot, your DVD one lot, VHS one lot, comics one lot, etc.

Just take couple pics of wutever u have, detail pics, and throw them online for a shot.

U gonna realize that in two weeks ur house is empty with nothin left.

Well if you want to simply "give it all away," you can empty out your house. I was doing that in the beginning. Then I realized it was stupid...if I was patient and waited for the right buyer to come along, I could make a lot more money.

[TheCanadiandrome]

good luck to ya! and if you'd like to sell some comics to a good home, send me a PM

Hello Rose, thank you so much for this response, it was well thought out and very kind of you to write and suggest this to me. Its so stressfull as Im so ill all the time, I suffer from a tone of active illness' at the time. I wish I could go to heaven on a daily basis haha heaven being a new house and a new body, both cleaner and healthier. As for that 'liberating feeling' that is what I am looking for, so i feel a bit better physically and psychologically. My big fear is I see heaps of stuff on Ebay Australia thats turtles moc etc retro stuff relistead week after week and no one buys, so im worried about it not selling. Also the reason im doing it is to make funds for my health requirements and also for my ability to add to my Ninja Turtles the Next Mutation collection and have the space for it. I cant wait to feel the space, see the space, be liberated and have some new next mutation stuff and customs also. PS. if anyone can ever help with my collecting info on released merchandise for NM and actual merchandise for me to buy or have from ninja turtles the next mutation please contact me xxx kb x
