I wouldn't sell. I'm something of a sentimental fool, and there are a few things in my collection that I'm quite attached to. I could let go of the majority of my stuff, but not all of it.

I plan to sell/give away all of my things eventually anyway, so if someone threw a stack of cash in front of me tomorrow (case of beer would help too) I'd probably let it go. I can always restart a collection (which would be pretty fun anyway) and keep the games that really mean a lot to me. I wouldn't go any lower than 50% of what it's worth though. I love video games and I love collecting, but I'm not really materialistic, which probably sounds kind of odd.

Hmm...I'd part with my collection if were able to get between $300-500. I don't have any real emotional attachment to any of my games or systems, and have considered selling most of it off anyways. In fact, I tried to unload my Gamecube and Dreamcast collections at a yard sale we had a couple months ago for much, much less, but no go.

Ten Million Diamonds with at least a half-inch diameter each and a ruby weighing seventeen stones.

No, honestly I have no real idea what my collection is worth. I imagine it's a bit, but I can't even honestly ballpark it without spending quite a while looking into prices.

The only thing I wouldn't part with for any price though is my B/C 80Gig PS3. (for its sentimental value - most unexpected gift ever, I was extremely overwhelmed)

It's hard to put a price on my memories!

Actually I have no idea, but I will be selling some extra stuff at the flea market on saturday.

Never really thought about the value before :/

Put me in the category of 'no sale' unless some truly ridiculous number was dangled in front of my eyes with at least 5 or 6 trailing zeros. As it is there are things I got rid of that I regret. I have enough hard to find things and sentimental attachment to the odd item here and there that I don't want to sell most of it.

Hobie and Soldier Blue sum up my thoughts above. My "$100,000" post earlier is just kind of a joke. I don't want to sell 10-20 years worth of memories, heh.

I'm extremely materialistic about games though, guess I can say that. It's rare for me to let someone borrow a game, and when I do, you damn well better know I won't forget they have one of my games! lol
