Welp, it's in full swing now. More than seven years in the making. No, there's no turning back now!
I have opened the pandora's box of the Imperial Man's vault. Oh dear god, what an amazing stash and buried treasure there is. Lots disorganized (some of my own doing, since I packed some of these things and thought they were well packed for shipping, but not all of them were). Cars, cars, cars, cars, CARS, and oh, did I mention there's lot of cars? In every imaginable way: 1:12, 1:18, 1:24, 1:43, 1:83 scale. Some boxed, a box of "ORIGINAL" 60's matchbox cars, hot wheels, and lots of large 1:18 scale diecast 40's, 50's and 60's model cars. Mini plastic models, resin models, parts, and then there's the HO scale kits of cars, trucks and buildings. So much to go through. And I've unearthed some amazing ephermera treasure for my collaging practice. Can't wait to start using some of these.
Ebay is a process, and yes, the listing and selling has begun - so far, everything on auctions, with an opening bid set at the minimum price I'd like to get for the item. And I think we're through opening about half or more of the boxes. Now it's time to organize into "like" categories, learn how to properly box and ship (and we did get a new postal scale for accuracy), and I'm setting up systems to capture and collect all the information and $$$.
They say the smallest journey begins with a single step. We'll I'm moving along, that's for sure.
The Vault Goddess's stash can't be far behind...
