Name your collection in $$$$$

I think you'll have a hard time getting people to list the value of their collection on an open forum. It's just not a smart or safe thing to do.

Here's an example of what can happen:

I'm not sure if I buy the whole story as it was told, but it just doesn't make good sense to let strangers know what you have. It would be like starting a thread asking how much money you have in the bank.

At least that's my $.02

Based on the price of $50.00 a ton and a 5,000 count box weighing 20 pounds, I would say it is worth a little over $200.00 to recycle it.

Yeah, you may be right on that. As much as we (you guys really b/c I don't have anything to brag about yet) talk about the singles, sets, etc. one could probably guess!

Just thought it would be an interesting thread.

I HOPE NOONE TAKES OFFENSE!!

We could all give the value in rupees. Then, no matter what it was worth, it would seem like a lot more and only a few could figure it out anyway

Ha- great idea.

mods- if you want to delete the thread I don't think it will hurt any feelings. Judging the temp of the few replies I think this one has crashed and burned.
