I have nothing much to add to this whole discussion, but this last post • made
me do some math ...

  So how do you guys determine value exactly? Roughly how
many pieces are there per pound? And what's the average
pieces per dollar ratio? I mean, when entire used sets are
auctioned off on ebay without boxes, they still seem to go
for around their original retail price or -higher- (unless they're
still currently available sets).. Bulk lots certainly seem to fetch
less per piece.  But it's starting to sound like it's not worth
much once it's all thrown together unless you can demonstrate
high weight? Somehow I'm getting the impression that my
collection would be worth a lot less if price were calculated
on its weight, rather than on a set-by-set basis. Perhaps I
should start lead-lining my bricks. :)

I'm not sure how the numbers are captured, or how accurate they are, but (...) (23 years ago, 9-Feb-01, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)
