My husband and I were just given responsibility for liquidating a comic/toy/hobby shop. I'm starting to inventory the stuff now, but there are a lot of comic books (a LOT of comic books), Star Wars figures and other miscellaneous junk.
Basically a friend of a friend bought the inventory for a hobby shop for a relative, who then did nothing with it. The entire contents of this store have been sitting in a very large basement for about a year. They want it all gone, and SO here I am!
Some of the items, such as the rare comics, we're going to be selling on eBay. Once I get to that point I'll link to my eBay store here if anyone's interested. Other stuff, like the not-so-valuable figures and things like that, we'll probably be selling at garage sales over the course of the summer.
HOWEVER, if you're a completist and you're missing an item or a comic or something, I might just have it for you. I've only gone through one box so far, but my second box is completely Power of the Force 4 inch figures (both the Green and Vaders cards) and stuff like that. Rather than publish my inventory on the web, if there's something you're looking for, post it here. I'll search my spreadsheet periodically while I'm constructing it and get back to you if I have it. I'm sure you'll get a good deal - we're talking $90,000 of toys that the owner is willing to liquidate for about $18,000.
There are original Battlestar Galactica figures, some pull-string ET plastic figures that talk, some vintage Star Wars, etc. But of course my hubby gets first crack at them all. ;)
Oh, and if you're not interested in getting anything just keep me in your thoughts. It's a big job! If you have any questions, like "do you have any X-Men figures" (the answer is yes) or "do you have any comics older than ____" just post 'em here. I'll get to the answers when I find out. :)
