Selling my entire collection

I’m not leaving the game, just selling all my cards. I have spent the last six years collecting Redemption cards, and I have just about every version1 of every card in the game right now. So instead of making a list of the cards I have, I will make a list of the cards I DON’T HAVE (due to very recent local trading):

Zeal for the Lord
Zebulun
Angel of God
Attending Angel (TxP)
The Destroyer
Melckizedek (RoA)
Philistine Garrison
Emperor Galba
Emperor Otho
Emperor Vitellius
Uzzah
Haman’s Plot
Image of Jealousy (TxP)
Nebuchadnezzar (TxP)
Holy Grail
Pergamum

I also don’t have error cards of any kind, but I have everything else as far as I know (especially copies of green and evil gold cards, as I just took apart a T2 Prophet/Egyptian deck), and EVERYTHING is for sale. Most of my cards are in near mint or very good condition, although a few of them are pretty worn or beat up. I will deal with these on a case-by-case basis, since I don’t want to have to fish through my whole collection and type up a list of all the worn ones. As for prices, I haven't really decided on that yet. I'll figure something out later, but for now, I will simply appreciate good offers and advice on selling. If you want to trade, I'll need a good deal, since exchanging cards for cards isn't the object of this thread.

1The only exception I can think of is that I don’t have both versions of the cards repeated in Unlimited and A/B, since I didn’t know there was a difference between the two when I was collecting them. I have either one version or the other for most of those.

I'll throw in a hard-back copy of The Travels of A T-Shirt in the Global Economy: An Economist Examines the Markets, Power, and Politics of World Trade by Pietra Riov, and Politics of World Trade by Pietra Rivoli and a hard back copy of The World Is Flat by Thomas L. Friedman. Both of which are stolen from the library.

I was supposed to read them for school, but I'm willing to part with them if it means I can haz bucklers and Shamgars.

Okay, here's an update (all who have sent me PM's so far please look here): I was originally planning to sell all these cards individually, but a few people have asked whether I would be willing to sell all of them as one lot. This would be a LOT less hastle for myself, and might even get me just as much return as would months of individual sales, so I am going to try selling to one person before breaking my collection up.

I am going to go through my collection now and try to find items of interest which I have duplicates of. Off the top of my head, I know I have two King David, two Warriors King of Tyrus, three Unholy Writ, two Grapes of Wrath, two Warriors Harvest Time, and two New Jerusalem promo.

Okay, after sifting through my collection, I found that I have doubles of the following cards:

King David
Gabriel (Warriors)
Michael (Angel Wars)
The Strong Angel (Warriors)
Emperor Nero
King of Tyrus (Warriors)
Failed Objective
Prince of this World (Priests) (x3)
Unholy Writ (x3)
Captured Ark
Chamber of Angels
Wall of Protection
Grapes of Wrath
Harvest Time (Warriors)
New Jerusalem (Promo)
Destruction of Nehushtan
Falling Away
Revealer LS (x3)

I also have doubles of many other valuable cards, including ALL State and Regional Promos, a few popular TxP cards such as The Woman at the Well and Gomer, and many other nice rares, ultra rares, commons, and promos. So, let offers be adjusted accordingly.

You can't fool me. My mother left me a loving letter informing me of her decision to take a trip to Hawaii last night and leave me behind, so I know that my family is safe.

You're not very good at codes, are you? She said, "I will be in Hawaii, Enjoying Luau Parties."

I have gotten a few PM's that indicate to me that I have made myself unclear as to my intentions. When I posted the list of my doubles, I did not intend for those to be sold seperately. I am trying to sell all the cards that I own in one big bundle to one person with one payment. If no one is interested enough in this to offer an amount of money large enough to satisfy me (which really shouldn't be too high a bar to reach), then I will begin selling the cards individually.

Right now, the highest bid for the whole lot is $120.

I have a bid for $185.

I forgot to put a time limit or a minimum increment on this thing, which has kind of become an auction. The only problem is that my missions trip goes from the 11th to the 19th, and that's kind of a bad time, especially since I don't think they have internet where I'm staying. However, I need the money for the missions trip, so if I ended the auction later, I would probably have to borrow some money from my parents (although I might have to do so anyway).

So before I decide an end date, I'm going to do a little more research on the missions trip. Until then, the minimum increment is $5.
