Suggestions:

Post your items here first.

Sell all games with the console it is made for.

Provide pics of every item.

Change the title thread and ask a mod to move it to the B/S/T topic.

Not trying to get into your personal life, but at 15 don't you still live with your parents? Any small income you have now is disposable, just buy mom a cake once in a while. Keep what you have collected, just do not impulse buy anything else. When you are older with a career job and your own family, you'll be happy you kept that treasure from your youth. I think many of us here wish we did.

That really is unfortunate man, but like everyone said you're still 15 so you shouldn't sweat it. Best of luck with your sales man :D

I agree with everyone else here and I really wouldn't be too upset about it. In fact, you have a reason to sell, which means one day you will have a reason to buy again (the best part of collecting.)

I can't tell you how many times I've had to go through that cycle of selling/re-buying. I had to part with a lot of my gems during my undergrad years to support me while I was in school. I don't regret it at all because I've been rebuilding what I used to have and more. The best part of it all is that I get to experience the joy of the hunt and buying them all over again.

Well see, Bagel sounds like they have empirical testing to back it up. I'd believe them.

I can concur!

I used to have a dog who could make snow yellow, and he made it taste like lemons!
