Selling your collection

[sparx]

I don't have enough yet to consider selling any of them. I have some that will NEVER be sold (or given up) as they were passed down from my granddad or dad, or given to me as Christmas presents when I was much younger, and those make up the bulk of what I currently have.

I made the mistake of hocking three pieces when I was an ignorant fool in the mid 80's and regret that (terribly so) to this day. So, someday I might have enough to consider selling a piece or two, but that day is no doubt a long, long way away.

Anyone know of the best place/way to sell old guns to get the best price?

I don't know about getting the best price, but if you were to post them here first, I'm sure you would wind up giving at least some of them the best home!

there are some i wish i hadn't sold or traded. others it doesn't bother me; i just didn't like them in the end. the ones i have now are hard for me to get rid of. some have some significance. others i just like. some of them i want my kids to eventually have.

i really need to stop buying them and be happy with what i've got. i just spent another $100 on a yugo mauser 10 minutes ago. should be here in a few days. add that up to another one i doubt i'll be getting rid of any time soon. most of them i hardly ever shoot, but i just like having them. it really doesn't make a whole lot of sense to have this many guns.
