Hi all - I’m preparing for a move in a couple weeks and contemplating downsizing my collection, which kills me but I gotta cut weight for the shipment, need some extra cushion money, and sad truth is the collection sits largely untouched in my closet. Haven’t totally committed yet but figured I’d put some feelers out.
I have a complete set of both full and empty OS 1-15 Boxes with all associated insert posters. A recent Feebay listing ended at $11,500 and I’m both shocked and curious how realistic that is/was from anyone who has been paying closer attention than me. All my boxes are in great condition with no black lines. I know pictures would/will be helpful but I don’t have time to sit down and take them all right now with other move preps.
Greatly appreciate any insights from the group.

Greatly appreciate any insights from the group. Full boxes have been selling at a higher price than usual lately. A quick glance at watchcount shows that full boxes in good condition without black lines have been selling for the following prices: 1: $6500-$8500 2: $800-$1000 3: $125-$150 4-9: $80-$90 10: $60-$75 11-14: $100-$125 15: $300-$400 I don't know if these prices included shipping, or if the boxes came with vendor posters. But the above ranges would add up to about $8500-$11,000 for all 15 full boxes. The above figures are dependent on condition and the whims of the buyers. Also, these are the prices for the sale of single boxes. I'm not sure how many people have $8k to $11k to drop on all 15 boxes. But it seems like now is the time to sell.

Wow, many thanks! It hurts to let them go; but as you say; now may be the best time. Quick decisions to make...

Do buyers of collectibles often have whims?

Greatly appreciate any insights from the group. Honestly if you are "putting some feelers out" and the price range in question could be 10grand+ I'd take time(30min?)to post up pictures. You can use the same pictures you'd post here on your eBay listing if you go that route... But it would be highly advisable to take that time for that kinda cash.

Damn, I wish I had my OS1 and OS2 boxes back.

Thanks all - I’ll put some photos up in the next couple days. What I meant was at the time I was writing the post I didn’t have the time to take any quality photos. Definitely agree that photos would/will be critical to anyone looking to spend that kind of money.
