For whatever reason it's time to downsize your wargame collection. We're focusing on figures here. Do you? A. Catalogue every thing and sell them as a whole. B. Bundle a few units together and sell groups of figures. C. Sell individual units. If you think of other options please comment. Part 2.will deal with pricing. |

Sell like units as a single lot, with painted and unpainted figures as separate lots. If you mix Romans in with WW2 or 15mm Napoleonics with 28mm fantasy, you are never going to find a buy who wants both. |

I'd likely sell fleets and armies as a whole. When I've unloaded eras/scales/collections in the past I've priced them to move as getting shed of the lot is more important than maximizing the selling price and it's less hassle than piecemealing bits. |

I try to sell locally first so as to keep the figures in town and shipping isn't an issue. I prefer to sell the whole collection at once books, accessories and figures. |

I have a large collection of miniatures. None will be sold, all will be given away to those who deserve and will carry on the future of our hobby. Kim |

"Sell off."— I do not (apparently) understand these words. |
