Huge Lot of Redemption Cards for Sale

I collected them a number of years ago, stopping at Priests.  Now have been played with, but sitting in a box gathering dust.  A few years ago I donated all my commons and rares to a local playgroup, but kept all the ultra, promos, and a few other rare lost souls.  About 200ish cards.  I would like to sell them in one transaction.  Just spent the time and made an excel spreadsheet listing them, the quantity, the price (using Three Lions Price List), so how accurate that is, I am not sure.  The value of the lot for those cards is over $1200...  Not looking for that, just looking for a fair price as bills and them collecting dust just doesn't make sense.  I didn't see a way to attach a spreadsheet, so just email me your address and I will send it to you...  Here are the highlights (I just sorted them and took a few of the higher dollar cards so you could see.

Card                                 Set   Cost   Quantity
Caleb                                 Promo   $25.00   1

Seeker of the Lost                  Promo   $25.00   2
Soldier of God                  Promo   $25.00   1
King of Tyrus                  Priests   $20.50   2
Joshua                                 Promo   $20.00   1

Falling Away                  Women   $20.00   3

Michael                                 Kings   $15.50   1
Lampstand of the Sanctuary    Priests   $15.00   1
Authority of Christ                  Promo   $15.00   2

Trumpet Blast                  Priests   $10.50   1
Book of the Covenant   Promo   $10.00   1
Chariot of Fire                  Promo   $10.00   2

Shadrach (Hananiah)   Promo   $10.00   1

I also found 10 unopened Woman's packs, which I would throw in to whoever buys the lot.  I know the size and value is scary, but just looking for a decent price, not trying to break the bank.

Thanks for looking.

Thanks,
Chris

Just fyi, it is rare for collections to go above $200 on the message boards. You might have a bit more luck with the auction-style sale on eBay, but even so the biggest collection I have seen get sold within the past few months had tons of newer cards in addition to the cards you listed, and it went for $400. Based on just the listed cards I would say you could potentially get $100-$150 including the 10 Women's packs. You might be able to make a bit more than that if you were to sell them individually, or in smaller groups, but it really depends.

If I had the money right now, I'd definitely make an offer, but I will leave it for someone who has a bit more disposable income than I do.

I would recommend splitting up your cards into 3 groups and letting people bid on them separately.  Something like the following should pull in about $50 per group, and there are more people with $50 to spend than there are with $150.  You'll make 3 times as many people happy, and also probably make more money for yourself.  Any cards that I didn't list below are probably not drawing much attention, so just split those evenly between the groups however you like.

Group A
Nicholas of Antioch
King David
Michael Warriors
Falling Away
NJ Warriors
AoCP
Trumpet Blast
Revealer LS
Chariot of Fire
Judas Iscariot
3 Women's Packs

Group B
Seeker of the Lost
King of Tyrus
Michael Kings
Falling Away
NJ Warriors
Lampstand otS
Book of the Covenant
Michael's Sword
Chariot of Fire
The Name of the Lord
3 Women's Packs

Group C
Seeker of the Lost
Soldier of God
King of Tyrus
Falling Away
NJ Promo x 2
AoCP
Revealer LS
Altar of Ahaz
4 Women's Packs

Thank you for the feedback.  Yes, I know splitting them up would probably make me more money, but if I was in it for the money, I wouldn't have donated 5-10 thousand of them to playgroups.  I know that those buying a big lot are probably either collectors that will allow them to complete sets or resellers looking to flip them and make money themselves.  I believe other than Michael from AW, the lot I have has everyone one of the Ultras from all sets from Apostles to Priests and and over 40 different promos.  Just going my memory, so you would have to request my Excel spreadsheet and check for yourself to be sure.

So if all I get is really low offers, I probably will look to either sell them in lots or maybe let them collect more dust...  :)

Thanks again for your help and let me know if you want to have me send you the entire list.

Chris

Chris, I am in college and with a couple guys who are considering joining redemption. I am currently broke but would be interested in the future in a lot like this to try and get some of these cards into their hands for the sake of teaching and learning.

That said it would probably be 2 months . . . Possibly more till I could make a reasonable offer. . . If you still havnt sold them by then I would be interested in the spread sheet.

Sounds good - shoot me a message and see if they are still available once you decide.
