Best way to sell a collection of 300+ legends

Sell individually on eBay (wide market). Buy it now with best offer. Be a little patient.

Is it better to sell individually or as a huge lot or even smaller lots? Do people still look through craigslist for toys? Asking for a friend lol

Toy shops/hobby shops like to buy huge collections would be quick sale no hassle of shipping

I’ll PM you my address. Just send them my way. Kthnx

As someone who sold off a 98 figure MOC Classic Superstars collection last year in March, here's what I'd suggest:

- If you live in a larger city or in an area known to be hot for wrestling figures, don't just limit yourself to eBay. Sure, you open yourself up to more buyers, but I had my 98 figure collection posted on Facebook Marketplace (assuming you have Facebook) and Craigslist. At least with those options you won't pay any fees to sell. My entire collection was eventually sold to one person for an amount I was very happy with.

- If you do go the FBM or CL route, be patient. Not only with the amount of time it may take to sell stuff, but also with the unfortunate fact that you'll get lowballers or people only wanting to buy individual figures or your most popular figures. This might not matter if you're willing to piece things out, but I was trying to let everything go at once to avoid being stuck with stuff I couldn't move.

- Decide whether or not you want to move everything all at once or if you want to piece things out. If it's the former, there may be toy shops or private collectors (which is what happened in my case) who are willing to take your entire lot all at once. Comic/toy shops will want your stuff for as cheap as possible, so depending on how flexible you are and how badly you need the cash, that part is up to you! Private collectors generally just want to add rare or missing pieces to their collection and will usuallu expect a deal if buying multiple items, but you likely won't have to sell as low to a private collector like you would a toy shop.

- Do your research and be organized. I can't recommend this enough. I created an Excel document to inventory everything I had, including the average sold price on eBay, Facebook groups and Craigslist for each figure, 2-pack, exclusive, etc. As you sell, you can also note that in your documents to log how much you're making along the way. This especially comes in handy if you're trying to net a certain amount. You can use it as a tracker to help you reach that sales goal.

- Take photos of everything individually and as a lot. People often want close up photos of things to determine their condition and their interest or offer they make for the item can sometimes depend on how mint or how crappy something looks. Plus, etiquette wise, as a buyer it's always appreciated when you know exactly what you're getting. On top of that, it makes you as the seller come across as more organized/professional and that person buying your item(s) can assume it came from someone who took care of it.

Hope that helps!

I agree with individually. My local collectibles stores typically pay 1/3 of the going price, as a rule, and they always get it from folks who are hard up for cash.
