$6000 (estimated $.06 per piece and probably much better than that!)

and A little more information on the collection...

I have compiled a conservative list of sets included in the collection.  The
MSRP value of the sets came out to a little under $12,000. The price per piece
of the parts included in the sets is $.06218 per piece.  It is important to note
that this does NOT include any non set aquisitions (ebay, bricklink, trades,
gifts, etc) over a 14 year period!

Detailed Excel listing of bin divisions and included sets available upon
request.  *ask for pictures of just the old Gray part bins!
