: I have a collection of flyers spanning from about 1990 to 2005... Most of them are in mint condition as I kept them in boxes since day one... do you think I would be best to sell as a whole lot or singularly?
hi Jonny
it depends how much time you have to spare -- very collectable flyers are best sold individually, especially if mint -- sets of flyers from collectable events also fetch good prices -- especially true for early flyers (pre-1992)
the most valuable flyers are not always those which are best known or most popular -- sometimes obscure flyers fetch good prices, especially if they've not appeared on eBay before -- there's always the chance of a 'bidding war' developing between two collectors :)
recent flyers (with a few exceptions) generally don't fetch high enough prices to make it worth selling them individually, unless you're prepared to set up a shop and wait weeks (or months) for interested buyers
: Also I have a load of magazines like Eternity, RaveScence, Knowledge, Atmosphere etc.
rave mags are often sold on eBay but prices are unpredictable -- very early issues of Eternity and RaveScene seem to be in demand
but i'm a buyer, not a seller, so see what others have to say :)
