You out there, postermen? :) Just answer me these questions:

1. Why are you selling?
2. Why didn't you part it all out?
3. Why is your BIN only $75k? ;P

I just ask as 20-30 items alone will net you $25k, not to mention if you part it out, the auction mob mentality will kick in and you will get much more than usual on a game to game basis.

EDIT: Just noticed in your auction you saying you'll part it out if it doesn't sell. Get crackin' on individual pictures and don't be surprised if in the end, you get $75k. Don't do it on nintendoage forums, you'll just get hosed on prices. eBay auctions all the way.

1. If I really want to play the games I can just use my powerpack, cellphone, ds, or laptop.
I have probably played less than 10% of my games and I think now is a great time to sell. (When the hell did Ducktales 2 and Zombie Nation become worth 3 digits?) There was no life disaster that caused me to need the money. I will use a chunk for a house down payment and a bunch of arcade and pinball machines. I also have a 16 month old daughter who I am afraid would destroy the games eventually.

2. I always figured I would be parting it out. I just wanted to try this first.

3. $75k seemed like a nice number

Damn, if I had 75k I would buy this in a heartbeat. This collection probably took around a decade to complete and the NES is the only system that I have under 25 games CIB for.
But as Portnoyd said, you could probably get over a 100k if you sold all this stuff individually. Although shipping would be a pain in the ass lol.
