Owning too much stuff?

I agree sell them make some money =) and some of the funds could be used for this site =P i might be intrested in a saturn controller for the right price as mine are not so great anymore

 

Well, I have 10-11 cars... so you're not alone lol, and I have over 20 PS1 consoles...
I would just keep it if i were you, I'm going to do just that.

I cant scrap my cars and I'm never going to sell... that's just stupid >.< they would end in the crusher after a year. >.>

 

I gave away a ps1 this weekend (Brother in law or something like that) he was very much intrested into a ps1 and they have 0 gameconsoles. So one can make people happy with free stuff. I also no-longer have 30 iligal copied ps1 games

 

Ah yes, too much stuff. I have to move to the UK on pretty short notice and this problem has very suddenly become relevant! What to do with all those budget PC games? Hmm

 

Make a list of them, place them all next to eachother, 1 big picture and name a price.

 

Certainly not a good spot to be in. Whatever your choice, we support you! :triumphant:
I thought about this same problem very early on and limited myself to only Sega hardware between the Mega Drive and Dreamcast.
I had no idea how much stuff was actually in between and my space is pretty full as it is.
I look at some of the things I have like the Activator, and just wonder when the hell I am going to use it... Probably never.
Should I hold onto it? The box is faded and the device itself is a hunk of junk. Just another bridge to be crossed soon.
Either that or I'll fall in to the river below...

Good luck either way!

 

I love the bundle idea.
I hate the trash idea.
If you happen to bin stuff like this any time in the future: DO NOT tell us about it. We WILL cry.

 

Wait, brand-new and just $15?

 

I would buy some! Finding LEGIT controllers for some systems these days is hard when there is a myriad of knock off bootlegs out there

 

I would buy some too!

 

Could put the excess in a self storage warehouse if you don't mind the monthly cost, but really the best idea would be to just sell the stuff you don't want. Fair enough if you would find it to be too much work but maybe you could slowly sell stuff off? like plan a year or two in advance for how much stuff you want to get rid of, rather than trying sell it all off in one go.

 

E-waste is a terrible, terrible idea. Donate to a good will or other thrift store for other collectors to find. At the very least you could just freakin' trade them in at a retro gaming store for five bucks each.

Also, I think you're selling the value of these things in a few years short. $15 for a sealed, new ps1 digital controller sounds awfully low.

Got any SCPH-1010's?

 

Freecycle, Freegle or any other of those type of websites where you list your stuff to give away. Much less hassle than ebay and you get that warm fuzzy feeling.

 

i would be interested in a few xbox 1 controllers , finding new ones that are OEM is getting harder now

 

A Mom & Pop retro store, or donation to Good Will both sound like great ideas.

Alternatively, perhaps there are some forum readers near by that would be willing to help a hand?

 

I'd buy a GC and PS1 Controller from ya.

 

Ok, I'm now willing to purchase as many GC controllers as I can afford.

 

I've been away for awhile, what the status of this? There would be some new controllers willing to pay new.
