Inherited Collection

[awomm]

Good Morning:

Recently my son inheritated a collection of Hallmark ornaments (approx 50-75). They were his grandmother's and have been in storage for nearly 10 years. The ornaments are in very good condition; however, there are no boxes. Everything is wrapped in cushion wrap. They range from 1982 to 1998.

He would like to sell this collection. How would we go about doing this? I would appreciate any assistance or suggestions you may have.
Thanks
Anne

Currently we are preparing an index of the items.

Hi Awomm,
There are several ways to sell a Hallmark collection.

*Ebay Auction or in an Ebay Store
*Sell to a Secondary Market Dealer
*Garage/Yard Sale
*Antique Mall Booth or Showcase
*Website
*Collector For Sale Bulletin Board at yulelog.com
*Craigs List

It gets down to how much time and effort your son wants to put into it.

We don't buy nearly all the collections that are offered to us, but if you would like us to consider your sons collection. We do have directions for submitting your for sale list on our site hookedonornaments.com under the "Sell Your Collection" link on the right side of the home page.

Since you mentioned that the ornaments are without boxes, you may need help in identifying them. If that is the case, we do sell the Hallmark Value Guide Books and Hallmark YuleLog software that would help out. Here is the link to that page of our site:

Hope this info helps, and good luck in selling! Nicki
