The small number of collectable/valuable items he was going to put on Ebay.He didn't get top dollar for every item, but he disposed of most of the stuff, and was very satisfied with the results. You didn't say what part of the country you're in. That might help us direct you to local help, or an up and coming swap meet close by. Sorry for your loss. Good luck.
