Honestly, no. I'm trying to stay in my house but it's looking increasingly like not an option. I sold my Cayenne and Boxster, am working two jobs, and just can't make enough to keep up with rising expenses.

Sorry to hear that, man.

Thank you. 

Very sorry to hear! When I saw the Hot Wheels thread I figured you were just tidying up or downsizing. Wishing you the best; I hope it all works out, and remember that we're pulling for you!

Very sorry to hear brother. You got this!

That's an impressive collection!

I'm sorry to hear you are struggling. I hope things get better soon!

Thank you all, I really appreciate it. It was a series of unfortunate events that just won't stop happening, the latest being an emergency vet bill.  I'm trying my best. I submitted the collection to BaT, hopefully they take it. 

BaT rejected it immediately, no explanation. 

Ebay fees are 18-20% 

Not sure where else to go. 

The market for this, at a premium price, is limited to a small group of die hard AMC enthusiasts.  Figuring out where they are and advertising it in those places seems like your best chance for a sale.

It probably doesn't make you feel better but a lot of people are having the same problems.

We are in Fortunate Son Cost Of Living now....the only answer is more more more......

Split it up and sell individually on eBay for max $$. I understand this sucks a lot.

yes, their fees are 18-20%, but they always get me 100-200% more in sale price than I'd get any other way.

I don't have the time or bandwidth for 250 sales. I don't have it for 25 sales.

Not a premium price. Less than half of mean sold individual values on ebay.

I started there. Shirley Shahan liked my collection, so at least that was something. 

Sorry you're having a rough time. I hope things improve for you soon.

That is kinda cool, although I wished someone showed more interest.

I don't really know where else to try besides Craigslist but I don't think many use it much anymore.

Sorry to hear you are having troubles though my friend, I hope it gets better soon

There's some old guys that don't do Facebook that still look at Craigslist.  Me, for one.
