Depending on how much is there, someone can make off real well by buying off the entire lot as one. The time it takes researching, pictures, listing, shipping is where the money is at.

Package deals are GREAT for the buyer, not the seller/inheritor unless someone helps out and recieves a percentage of the take.

I would estimate based on how much I believe he has that 30-40 cents on the dollar on the used and maybe 70 cents on the dollar for new would be about right for a package deal. She could do alot better holding onto, agreeing on paying someone to catalog, take pics, list all those parts and be done with. I believe 15% is fair (inc. packaging and auction fees), but thats up to them.

None of my business, but have an idea what the market is like as both buyer and seller.
