I'm hoping your not thinking of getting out of the game, but if you are, I'd sell it piece by piece for a limited time, say a month or so, for reasonable prices, then sell off the rest as a lot. Hit up sites like this first, then go the eBay or Craig's List route.

Throw in the shelving for free.

bingo on selling from here first, and bingo on the shelving

I think if you price point everything generically by size, for example, figures all$3, small vehicles $9, and larger vehicles$15. People like price points and it makes offers easier. After price pointing, you can offer "twofers", "threefers"...etc. i would see if there are any local toy shows, flea markets and inquire about a space there. if you go that venue, make sure you advertise on craig's list that you'll be there. going back to your original question on pricing, Frank, break the collection down by size of vehicle, then figures, complete/incomplete and then really figure out prices that will sell it fast and fair. My Dad used to have a saying, "Ya want fast nickels or slow dimes?" I prefer fast nickels in my store

i hope this helps
