After I was able to finally sell an old engagement ring I had, from a previous relationship, on Craigslist, I decided to put more stuff I haven’t used in a long time on Craigslist. If I can’t get rid of them in a reasonable amount of time, I’ll probably try and locate stores that would purchase the stuff, instead of having a yard sale. The hardest thing for me to sell (and not because of any sentimental value) will most likely be my baseball card collection. I’ve got about 200 cards if you don’t count the complete sets I used to get for Christmas. Unfortunately, the baseball card market isn’t what it was 20+ years ago, thanks to my parents’ generation. When our parents were kids, they would destroy the cards without thinking twice, or their parents threw them out thinking they were worthless. The prices of the cards issued back then is considerable. My generation suffered because our parents wouldn’t let us make the same mistake. They realized that they were playing with a small fortune back then. This backfired on us because not enough cards got destroyed for the prices to skyrocket like they did for cards from 50+ years ago.
I would’ve gone with Ebay but didn’t want to have to pay a commission and didn’t feel like taking a lot of photos of my stuff.
The stuff I’m selling consists of:

• Baseball Cards
• Basketball Cards
• Football Cards
• Garbage Pail Kids Cards
• Compact Disc Collection
• DVD Movie Collection(?)
• Used Books (mostly belonged to my mother)

I haven’t fully made up my mind if I want to sell my DVD collection. I hardly watch any of the movies and they’re taking up space, but at least they’re accessible if I feel like watching something and there’s nothing good on TV.

There are a few other things I’ll probably just throw out instead of trying to sell, like my 1:24 scale slot Funny car (I used to do this back when I was in high school and haven’t done it since).
