Geeky Toys Free/For Sale

Brian and I have been working to pare down our stuff*. In particular, we have a ton of comic/sci fi/popular media collectibles. Given the space we have to display things, we've been working to keep the only best of the best.

Our attic currently has stuff we don't want anymore spread around by category (Star Wars, Japanese Robots, Msc). I'd love to turn some of this into cash because I know some of it could be worth something, but I'm not sure I want to deal with the Ebay hassle (Brian sure doesn't). I wonder, how well the Ebay consignment shops work, how selling things to a comic and/or collectible store would work, and what people would want.

In the box, I have these:
Delirium Soft Toy: http://www.dccomics.com/dcdirect/?dcd=3494&cat=OTHER&lst=all
Exclusive Red Dawn (Joe Linsner) Figure: http://actionfigures.about.com/cs/females/gr/towerdawn.htm

Also:
Framed A New Hope and Empire Strikes Back Posters
A vintage joker figure on stand, around 11" tall, circa 70s
A bag of Star Wars lego sets
Random small Star Wars action figures out of box
The older 1/2 of the Jedi Council set http://www.starwars.com/collecting/news/hasbro/news20040901.html . The bad guy set may be up for grabs too

Anyone want to look through our stuff?

*and please don't give us any more random collectibles, we don't have room for them :)

I will be ebaying my butt off after the Season ends, if you'd like i can throw up whatever you don't end up giving away, or anything you decide could get more Fett Gear *grins* I'll just take Ebay and PayPal fees outta it.

Let me know.

PS - aside - I SO want a manicure, but this weekend is wonky, when are you available for girly stuff!? And I haven't forgotten we need ot make a Wrentham Outlet trip. Also let me know when you are free for that. My schedule is suprisingly unfull *lol*

I would love to take any of the Star Wars figures you have, first for a photography project, and then to give to Jasper, the young geek-in-training. :) I figure I can have a few toys over here for him to play.

Nhan has tennis Thursday night from 8:30 to 10 - we could come by Goffee if you'd be there REALLY late - like 10:30/10:45.....

There is an Ebay consignment store way up on RT 20. (I think Wayland) It is next to the TJ Maxx.

"and please don't give us any more random collectibles, we don't have room for them :)"

Jeez, does that work? I have to try that. :)

I understand the need to get rid of stuff. Just not very good at it myself.

it's funny, three years ago i'd have been like GIMME GIMME (especially the dawn figure), but most of my stuff like that has been packed in boxes for about that long. as much as i like that stuff, i'm realizing that i just don't need any more. until i see something at newbury :P
good luck with the paring down :D

Oo! I may be strongly interested in the Star Wars legos. Jon's Bday is coming up. I just need to make sure he doesn't have them already. What would ou want for them?
