ASK THE BELLHOP
Today we’ve got a question from long time fan of the show Juho Rutila:
"Hi Moe and Sean,
I think this situation comes up in every gamer's life: the boardgame shelf is full and the significant other starts to hint that you can make space on the shelf by selling some of the hard collected games.
How do you go choosing the games to let go? Is it the time since last time on the table or the overall time on the table? Should I still spare the gem that gets played too seldom? How about games with a personal bond or a signed game from the designer?
Where do you sell your used (or even shrink-wrapped) game? Friendly local game store? eBay? Facebook? Other places? How do you decide the correct price for the game? What if it is a collector's item? How do you find these things out?
Any hints on the topic are welcome as I am facing this very problem at the moment.
Cheers, Juho"
