Question and Advice, Opinions, Ideas

[kahnjar1]

Hi Rick,
I have just gone thru this with my collection as I am knocking on the 80 year birthday though my health is great for now. I do not have any children with interest to hand down to, and do not wish my good Lady to have to fend off those who will try and get stuff for nothing.
I was lucky enough to find a young collector with funds enough to take most of my items, and therefore avoiding auctions and dealers, both of whom will take their (often exhorbitant) cut.
As a matter of interest I have always kept a record of what I paid for each item which helps when selling or disposing of one's collection.
Disposal of a collection can often be a problem but in my opinion it is better to be dealing with yourself while you still have the ability to do so.
I should add, that disposal does not mean that one has lost interest in their hobby, which still goes on thru local gun shows and auctions, and also of course thru this Forum.
