Determine Value of RPG Collection


Gamer Life General Discussion

Sovereign Court

Hi all -
I have a very large collection of RPG's. I have some very rare finds from all editions of D&D - and many 3PP of each edition as well. I'm unsure of how many books I have - but with all the systems and materials it's enough for 4 large book cases. I've taken pictures of the book shelves and books - but never cataloged each book or determined condition. I'd never really considered selling my gaming collection, but now - after 32 years of gaming - I think it's time to call it quits. I think since I just bought a brick of mini's on Friday!
I'm sure it's worth to me is $10,000 - while someone else would likely only pay $1,000 - but I'd like to see how best to determine value and if it's worth selling by the piece or just the entire collection.
Thanks for any thoughts.

It would be a shame to split some of those editions/games so maybe sell them by the lot per game/edition. Of course I dont sell stuff often so maybe you'd do better selling it all in pieces.


This site is a little out of date but still...

You'll have to go through them all and catalog their condition no matter where you try to get an estimate. I would recommend Noble Knight Games. They specialize in resale of out of print game books.

Send them an email with a description of your stuff and include a note on each one's condition (there is a page on their site for doing this). They'll get back to you with an estimate to buy your stuff.
