What would you do with your collection if 2018 was your last year?

Hi Leon,

I understand. I think I said originally that I would sell off my more expensive cards and then send out the lesser stuff to hobby friends. The Mantles and such that I mentioned are low grade cards and wouldn't net much in an auction anyway, so those would go out to friends too. But I agree that helping family with the bigger items makes sense for sure.

Thanks,

AndyH

I would sell most of my collection which would most likely go directly into my kids� college fund and I�d probably have my boys keep a few cards or memorabilia so they can always embrace one of their dad�s hobby passions. I�d also have my wife keep a few items that I believe would increase in value so that she can reap a bigger monetary reward later on (hope that works out

)

Andy...I�m glad you brought up passing on some lesser cards to hobby friends because that�s a great idea and now I�d look to do the same thing or at least give them a nice discount if anything...thanks for the post
