Hello everybody, im not shure if this is the correct place to ask this or if it is appropriate or not, if not i appologise. my father started collecting model trains when he was a little boy, at his last count he had well over 200 complete sets. mostly O guage and alot of HO and a few others. sadly my dad passed away recently and all of his prized trains have sat in their boxes untouched for over a year now. my mother has decided that it is time to slim the collection down and just keep the items that hold strong sentemental value, but here lise that issue. a local hobby shop is willing to sell them for us at no charge but they told us to establish a value for the items first. can anybody point me in a direction of a source that can help me establish proper prices for dads trains? we dont expect top dollar but we would like to get what is fair for them as they were dads prized possions. thaks for any help and advice.
