If you die...
« on: August 05, 2012, 10:14:31 PM »
What's gonna happen to your games?  I don't actually have a will, but since I don't currently have a family (and even if I was, I doubt Donna would know what to do with them), if I happen to die, there's a whole stack of PCE games and consoles sat there.  Most of my friends probably won't know what they're worth, so I expect they'd probably just go on eBay.

I think I'd quite like them to be offered to you guys though, then give the money to my friends or whatever.  Has this ever happened before?  We've all heard the opposite, people finding huge lots in estate sales, where the families have no idea what's there and what it's worth, but equally, I can imagine collections of all kinds just get binned.

Funny you should post this.  If I live a long natural life all my shit goes to my kids.  Even told my oldest daughter that.

Im going to have them all cremated with me, and then I am going to mail the results to everyone I know with the instructions "Snort this shit, motherf*ckers.  It's the real deal".

Or something.

This is why I tag all my repair jobs with all the info anyone would need to get it back to its owner in the event of my demise.

My best guess, my brother would put it on CL for $100.  Entire lot, "U haul"

Not married, no kids, no one in family interested in my old games or stuff unless there's a "3" in the console name.  Oddly I don't have PS3 or XBox360 :D

Some of my family knows that a few of my titles are worth a fair amount of dough, but I suspect it'd end up on eBay as one big lot out of convenience.

All of my stuff will be on Craigslist as one huge lot.

syphic would get the entire lot for $3.40.

I will turn over in my fresh grave.
