ebay it steve. lots of people will crack it with you if you dump it, it will take you forever to sell it all as one lot. of course, ebaying everything will mean taking photos and documenting... you could get a team of people on the job...

alternatively, see if other mini specialists are interested in taking the lot...

too late for that already had a few loads go down the dump

Hire a student or someone similar to list the items and run all the ebay auctions for 20% of the take. Means a fair price for all.

That's what i was thinking about, ebay takes so long to put an ad up.
my first port of call would be to advertise it on here, make an offer and see what happens

Do that, put together a lot of parts on here and run it as a silent auction.
Get people to PM or whatever their offers to you. Highest bid after a week or whatever gets the goods.
Maybe you can do a deal with Scott for your own for sale section as a temporary thing.

I'm sure a donation to the Ausmini fund will go a long way.
Or we can buy some meat and beer for a bbq.
this should cover some of poeee's expenses/time
