**** At this point, I am not planning on selloing these 1 at a time so please hold off on making those requests. I don't plan on saving those PMs and if, in the future, they are sold '1 at a time' then there will be a new FS post. ****
I have a close friend who used to buy lots of stuff from local ops and then keep some and sell the rest.
He has been out of the 'hobby' for about 10 years now and wants to get rid of the rest of his accumulated stuff. We're starting with the biggest pile, the marquees.
A couple weeks back I went to his place and helped him inventory/identify all the marquees he could find. There are around 160 of them... 120 or so distinct and the rest are duplicates.
(my math may be off a bit. If so, I apologize.)
Below is the list. Where things are obviously different than what one might expect, there's a comment.
For example, if NOS but scratched, the scratching is noted.
Using the figures 160 marquees x $5 each puts the total at $800
Figure $100 to ship (or, if less, ACTUAL shipping - local pickup is free and I am willing to deliver the marquees to anyone within let's say a 100 mile radius of Minneapolis for free also)
I realize it's a lot to digest (from a quantity perspective) and also to invest (from a monetary perspective) but you could probably make $300 - $400 without too much trouble.
There are some stinkers in here and some gems... as anyone might expect.
It is all the marquees he has and he would like them sold.
Lastly, I wouldn't expect anyone to just pitch $800 at a stack of unseen marquees so I intend to take pictures of all of them (wish I would have done that when we were going through them) and throw a Photobucket link into this post.
I just wanted to get this out there.
