Tough one. If you want to sell altogether, you just missed ponycon! Wouldve been a great way to sell all.

Advice? Either wait til next ponycon, 'cause no-one outside of the UK is going to pay the postage for all of them, OR split into individual sales, one by one. G3s don't sell too well, so it's best to get PCs for any you're not sure of. My G3 sales didn't go so well, but good luck to you!

Best to split them up I think, especially with G3 - sadly, people are unlikely to want to buy a whole collection  :|

Most standard single G3s in a box probably aren't more than £5, loose not more than £3 if in good condition. Exclusive or hard to find ones are obviously more, especially if they are still MIP/BIB.

Probably best to put a post in the For Sale section with a list as there will be people looking for specific G3s who may want to buy

I agree with the ladies here.

You could certainly initially offer them up as a complete collection but unfortunately its unlikely you would get near "collector" value for them that way.

I would start out with a list of what you have in For Sale or group pictures. G3s are not the greatest sellers, unless hard to finds of course, so sometimes making sales offers "buy 5 for £10" kind of thing may help you move them on in larger batches and at greater speed.
Thank you Matcha for my gorgeous Baby Fifi avi :hug:
