Especially here you should post correct in formation, there is no Beta booster in the collection, it is just an Italian Revised Booster.

Thanks for posting the link!

Google Translate has given me a rough idea of what is going on in the thread but I cannot see any of the pictures :(

Sorry, dafür hast du keine Berechtigung!

Is this a global set or 'just' an English collection?

How many boosters, one of each picture or just one booster from the set?

Not that I am expressing an interest in buying them, I can't afford a second partial set. Just thinking about how I would go about selling my collection when the time comes.

I think I will probably split the set up and try to sell the more expensive items separately, who else would want to buy an almost complete set? Only another booster collector who was just starting out.

I think if you just sell the top boosters you will get a similar price to the value of the full collection, even a couple of hundred common 3-4 euro boosters will not match the price of a single beta booster and it would be a lot of effort trying to get a collector to buy 'Homelands' for 3 euro as part of a collection when all he needs are the rares.

Plus the cost, weight and size of a full collection compared to the ease of posting a single booster.

Having said that, I have seen collections sell almost overnight on this site for big money, I guess a dealer might be able to offer a lot more money than an individual and still be able to buy the full set for less than it is worth.

I would be very interested to see how quickly the set sells, and of course, what it sells for.

Please let us know how it goes.

Thanks for the pictures!

Italian Legends and some Renaissance as well but not a bad collection at all.

Mmmmmmmm, German Portals!

I think he will not have a problem selling the set, it would not be outrageously expensive and probably a bit of fun opening the common boosters.

I only need both German Portals, but if he is not interested in selling them alone...

Am I missing those collection sales?

I am always interested in buying huge collections and never see any :)

Not sure how many but one was for about 10,000+ Euro, there was a long list of items and by the time I had sorted thorough the list to see what would be a decent offer and to see if the seller would split it up it had been sold.

I think most of the big collections are listed up on eBay but linked here.

I guess it depends on how you define huge, 10,000 Euro could fit in an UltraPro 9-pocket page :)

Edit your original Post, and then you can change the subject line.

P.S. congrats on all your recent and upcoming deliveries, M!
