Some Advice Please

I have a large collection of lego technic & mindstorm kits, including 2x
mindstorms kits (1x w/ serial port IR Tower & 1x w/ USB IR Tower), 1x Mindstorms
Remote Control, 1x 8880 black super car, 1x 8480 Space Shuttle, 1x yellow Back
Hoe Front Loader (last years model), 1x red emergency vehicle (last years
model), 1x 8459 Pneumatic Front Loader, plus additional pneumatic pumps and
cylinders, and a few other minor kits.

Unfortunately, I am cash strapped now, and I am considering selling the whole
lot. I would appreciate some advice. What do you think this sort of collection
is worth? Would you sell it as one large lot, or would you sell it in smaller
lots? I have all of the instruction booklets, and most of the original boxes
except for the smaller kits. Everything is all mixed up. So, should I take the
time to rebuild everything and photograph each model, before posting them on
ebay? I was thinking about a reserve of £350. Is this too lowor too high?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Scott
