man o man.. i wished you lived near me. I have quite a collection of star trek stuff i want to get rid of. Yet, i'm so daft when it comes to sellin' on ebay.. plus they take so much for puttin' an ad in.. then to guess at the weight of the product, and goin' to the post office. ugh!

Star Trek, huh? Dunno, if I had money, I might actually make you an offer. As for the weighing thing, you know you can put it all in a box, take it to the PO, and ask them how much it weighs and what you price options would be. I've been the local PO so many times they know me by name and site over there.

i tell ya, you might want to seriously do some research on completed auctions for stuff similar to what you have. Depending on how old/rare it is, you might have a gold mine there. A lot of Star Trek fans are people with WAAAAY more money than sense. Hell, one guy paid I think like several thousand dollars for a poker/sun visor that was supposedly worn by Data in TNG's final episode.

Let me say that again, he paid SEVERAL THOUSAND DOLLARS for a POKER VISOR. And me, I'm doing silly stuff with my money like rent, food, and medical debts.
