I wouldn't rush to start trading if I were you. Unless you are certain you are
only interested in certain themes you may regret having gotten rid of some of
your pieces later when you find out more about them. If you read Lugnet
regularly, look up sets on Lugnet, instructions on Brickshelf, and study pictures
and descriptions of Lego auctions, you'll soon recognize what sets/themes most of
your pieces are from. (And this is stuff you'll do automatically the more you
get back into LEGO!) Then you can zero in on what you really like and part with
what you don't. Also you'll come to realize that certain themes such as pirate
and castle are more popular and have a bit more value in trade.
HTH!

| (...) I agree with Maggie. If you're just getting back into collecting/building/playing, don't rush to get rid of anything. Try to assemble any sets that might be present, as you'll get a better appreciation of the pieces that might not otherwise (...) (24 years ago, 10-Aug-00, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)
