Thinks s/he gets paid by the post
My husband was a collector and now, after his death, I am dealing with the sorting and selling of stuff. I know that he enjoyed his collections and I think part of the allure was the hunt involved in finding things. He didn't collect junky stuff but collectables such as World Fair, books (more than 4000 books), glass, old phonographs, stamps, odds and end antiques...stuff to me. Now, I have to deal with unloading everything. I am having an auction sale later this month so that should prove interesting.
I have to admit that earlier in our marriage, my husband and I both enjoyed going to auctions and bidding on "stuff" as well as attending antique shows...so I am to blame for some of this collecting.
So, I guess I am interested in knowing if anyone else has collections and if they plan to sell those collections at some point or just let them grow and let their heirs deal with it.
