This was my mothers' collection, she passed about 12 years ago. She had been collecting since pretty much the first episode of the original series aired. I got drug to so many Star Trek conventions as a kid. I think my favourite memory was Brent Spiner dancing on to stage to vintage Styx Mr. Roboto playing at full blast. (Portland around 92ish) Sigh, but its time to clear up some space. I'm not really looking to sell single pieces. So I am looking for recommendations for Auction Houses, or collector stores that would be willing to buy it as a lot. I let AI Scan through about 1/2 of the collection that is photographed, and came with an estimate of around $10,000 USD. Which again is not even the full collection. I am not naive, I'll probably only get about 1/2 that. This is a link to the stuff that was on display when we took it down. http://captfiero.com/StarTrekCollection/index.html There is substantially more than this. So any Trekies out there with a favourite place they go to when they are looking to buy? I am located in Abbotsford BC Canada (Clearbrook/Aspen Park area). If you’re a local collector or a Trekkie looking to seriously expand your fleet, shoot me a DM and we can talk details. This would FILL an average pickup truck just with the rubbermaid totes and that's not including all the larger items. Side not is Eric Stillwell still part of the Star Trek universe, as one of the things she prized was a Next Generation script Yesterdays Enterprise dated December 8th 1989 with his signature given to my mother, from what I understand they were friends in late 70's early 80's. A few extra pics. http://captfiero.com/XtraTrek/album/index.html
