Have you inherited a collection that you’d wish to conveniently sell? Are you leaving the hobby and looking to unload your collection all in one go? We have two different ways that you can sell your collection hobbyDB. If you add your full collection to hobbyDB, then you can
1. List your collection on the marketplace by linking to your Showcase
2. List your collection on the forum
3. Join our collection sales program - only for collections valued at $20,000 and above. Please email us for more info and bespoke pricing.
Here's what you have to do for all options
- First, add your collection to hobbyDB (find out how here). Don't forget that for newer items in their packaging, you can easily add items to your collection by using the barcode scanner via the hobbyDB App.
- Sign up for hobbyDB Premium so that you can see the value of your collection
- Once you've added your collection to hobbyDB, you can calculate its estimated value by clicking the "Recalculate" button in the My Collection Section on your Showcase.
Don't forget, you can update your collection value every 12 hours to ensure you always have the most up-to-date estimated value! - If you would like to separate your collection into multiple logical sub-collections just let us know. For example, you can separate your Car Brochures, Brooklin Models, and Fire Engines. If you want to do that just create a separate List for each of these (Lists are explained here).
