I plan on mine going to my son and so on until it literally falls apart.  I think for me it was an important part of my childhood that I enjoy sharing with my son.  I do hate how hard it is to get the games that I want.  I am not in it for "collecting" or the "money".  I am into it for fun, plain and simple.

^^^ pretty much this.

If he wants to keep them and pass them on, great. If he wants to sell them to find a different interest/hobby/pursuit/etc., great.  Either way, they're his.

@ PinBiohazard..  ;D
that's a good point, although my mind wasn't that far ahead in thought.
just as long as they get used/played on (or constructive other) it was well worth it.
...
a good chunk of my crap was for free, and in the world of pay-up, got off lucky, and then some.
(it's one thing to get an item for free, but to use it over and over again is priceless.)
...
fingers crossed i make the right move, put a smile on some otherwise not so happy faces, society asks us what reason do we have to smile and be happy with own perceptions of self-respect.
like we have to use money to be happy.
i say, fuck that!
whizz me under a chieftain tank alive if there's laws ever become passed to tax emotional states... >:(

Imagine the face of a 20 year old collector when an old veteran collector goes to them with a Little Samson or a Gold NWC Cart and entrust it to them to build their collection, man you could not replicate the smile on their face
