Good question.
Age is irrelevant.
Death can come to any of us, at any time. That car that decided to ignore that
red traffic light might just make your Lego collection suddenly without a owner.
I have no kids, and since the majority of my collection is comprised of old,
large, discontinued sets (around 260), I would absolutely HATE for it to be
pawned off in one big lot to some "ebay punk" (thanks to the other person who
coined it first on this topic) for less than a quarter of its real value most
likely (I'd probably roll over in my grave), and like most people here, I would
prefer my collection went to someone who truly appreciated it.
Since none of my closest friends are Lego fans, I guess my collection would go
to relatives. My brother has a 6 year old boy and 3 year old girl. The boy likes
to play with Lego now and then, but at this age I doubt he would appreciate the
full scope of my vast technic collection, some with sets dating from the 70's.
Even more doubtful for my niece, who's mostly into dolls and playhouses.
So, I guess I would tell my brother and my parents, let the nephew take the sets
he wants/he's most likely to play with in the future, and sell the rest on
BRICKLINK, set by set, and the rest of my spare parts, brick by brick if they
have the time, or in one big lot if they don't.. That's the best way to get most
of the real value. Screw Feebay.
