wolfy62 Posted May 17, 2023 Share Posted May 17, 2023 10 hours ago, BBWW said: If you are buying thinking they will increase in value you are doing it wrong. Yes it will crash, we are getting older and our kids will toss the collections in a Goodwill box someday. This is probably pretty accurate! I just keep buying all the homebrews because I love my collection and hobby and it's fun keeping it up. Definitely not an investment for me because I won't be the one selling it off or giving it away. I'm sure it will be hit or miss for my kids. 80% will be worthless 20% will have some resale value. Hopefully I can at least steer them in the right direction on what's what before I pass. 1 Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/174007-intellivision-ebay-roundup/page/612/#findComment-5255736 Share on other sites More sharing options...

the1hatman Posted May 18, 2023 Share Posted May 18, 2023 Honestly, I've instructed my wife to simply post the entire collection as 1 lot on eBay. It's not the best way to maximize a full 125's value but it will net her the biggest return she can get with the least amount of effort. It's also likely the best way to make sure it winds up in other collector's hands rather than Goodwill or a dump. Β I could also just will it to someone in this community as a backup plan but then I'd worry about getting shanked in Portland by one of you shifty types!
