Hunting the games is the fun part, if I have the money I would not buy all the games together

If the price is right, wouldn't you be willing to sell your collection? If someone offered me an amount I simply could not refuse I would seriously consider parting ways with my collection. Then again that is just hypothetical and wishful thinking.

I agree with both of you.  I don't believe for a second that he wants to sell.  However, he might be willing to sell for the right price. 

For example, I have no intention of ever selling my game collection.  But if someone walked up and offered me $30,000 for my collection, I wouldn't think twice to sell it.  For that price, I could buy back everything I have and still have enough money to more than double my original collection.  Obviously that will never happen, but I think it's a good example of what's happening here.

Well if that's the case and I will have money to buy the collection again and  more, I will definitely sell them :P

No, not really. Don't need the money right now, and my collection means a lot more to me than just a monetary value. In fact, I rarely even consider its value at all. Plus, nobody is offering this person money, he's asking for it. It takes a very specific kind of buyer to purchase a lot like that, and most of the people I know in the game collecting world who could afford it, already have most everything that they want already :P

I still call shenanigans.
