I am a long time Transfan. My wife is having surgery at the end of the month, and will be out of work for some time. I have to sacrifice a bit of my collection for hospital costs, and I am currently running an ebay auction for every Botcon/Otfcc exclusive from 1995-2004. The link to the auction is here:

I will sacrifice what I have for my family. If you would take a look at the auction, check my feedback, if anyone is interested I would really appreciate it. Thanks.

Thanks so much for your well wishes. It's taken me years of searching to build up this collection, and my wife doesn't know I'm selling it. If she was to see pieces disappear one at a time, she'd end up trying to stop me from selling it. Not to be selfish, but if I had to see it disappear one TF at a time I think it would take it's toll on me, also. I made the decision to do what is best, but I just want to be able to package it all up at once so as not to think about it.

Thanks Prowlstreak and Highprime. Yeah, in the name of love you will do whatever it takes for your significant other.

The auction ended without a winner, so I relisted it at $500 less than when the original auction started. I was really surprised, I thought for the price it would have gone. It's now Buy It Now for $1400, so if someone would take a peek and a buy that would really be great, as my wife goes out of work on Sept. 25 Thanks.

Just a suggestion... if you can, I know you mentioned it's hard (as in you're attached to your collection), but bite the bullet, and list everything separately... you will make a lot more of your lot... There's just not as large of an audience for high priced lots..

You can do it, man :grin:

If it makes it easier, I'll list 'em all for you if you like :-?

by **figureguy** » Fri Sep 14, 2007 12:23 pm

I appreciate it, but if I did break it up, it would just be easier to do it all from here.

As some have suggested, I have now listed my entire botcon collection separately on ebay. A link to all of my auctions is here:

Thanks for everyone's suggestions, and here's hoping.
