Title: Selling my collection
Post by: princeofthisgame on November 06, 2016, 02:43:27 PM
As much as I love Redemption and the fellowship it has brought me over the years, at this point in my life, I don't foresee myself having the time or funds to play or update my collection for the foreseeable future. For this reason, I have decided to sell my collection.

 I played and collected rigorously  from about 2002-2011. I probably have at least one copy of 80-90% of the cards released during that time, and quite a few from before. When I stopped playing, depending on strategies, I had enough "staples" to build 4-6 decks, and still have a few of them built. I also have a large amount of deck boxes, sleeves, and the storage containers I kept it all in. I have never stored in binders, but had kept everything fairly well organized by brigade, type, special ability/not, warrior class, etc.

I would probably consider most of my collection to be near mint, but may have more wear/scuffed corners on frequently used cards.

If you have any questions or would like to make an offer, please email me at jkempusa@hotmail.com.

Thank you all,
Jeremy Kemp

Very nice, long running dedication, Jeremy! Thank you for sticking with it as long as you have and contributing to keeping the game alive and continual!

What are you looking at getting for your cards? Are you selling them individually or by set?

Cheers,

Derek

I would be interested in the whole collection as one lot.

I'm planning on selling it all in one lot. It's in storage right now, but I'm going to go get it today, and check on its condition. I'll post again this afternoon. Do either of you know what it takes to ship this sort of package?

Where are you located? Sometimes it is worth a little road trip to pick up bigger lots.

I'm in Burlington, Iowa.

Ok...well we can discuss shipping once you have an idea what you have. Flat rate boxes when packed well can be a good solution.

So I went and got the cards on monday, and there was some evidence of mice in the storage unit. I'm letting everything air out a little bit, but I'm planning on going through everything to make sure it's all still intact on probably sunday or monday.

How much are you selling the mice for?

Any updates on what you have found?

;D ;D ;D

I spent a few hours today going through everything, and it seems like pretty much everything worthwhile is intact (apparently, no SA commons taste good.) I would guess there are over 10,000 cards altogether, including most rares, URs, promos (including salvation armys and faithful servant), I also found several packs of unopened cards(no dobut winnings from the last tournament I attended, back in 2012.
I have several pictures, but can't figure out how to post them. For those interested, I'd be happy to send them in a message(I think I remember it's easier there).

They look to be in good condition. Were most of the cards kept in those plastic storage bins and tins with a few in cardboard boxes?
Title: Re: Selling my collection
Post by: princeofthisgame on November 14, 2016, 05:28:37 PM
That is correct. There were also quite a few decks still assembled that were sleeved in deck boxes. However, I did end up throwing most of the boxes away, due to odor or damage.

Did the cards themselves have any transferred damage or odor from being in the affected boxes?
Title: Re: Selling my collection
Post by: princeofthisgame on November 14, 2016, 06:07:35 PM
I've thrown away any damaged cards and sleeves. There is a small amount of residual odor, primarily on the sleeves. The sleeved cards are significantly less noticeable.

What were you looking at trying to get for the collection?
Title: Re: Selling my collection
Post by: princeofthisgame on November 14, 2016, 06:44:16 PM
Well, I would guess retail value to be close to $1000+. I would like to get $500+ for it.
