@dentarthurdent Thank you for the response. I agree it can be very difficult to get any interest in used items even from charity shops especially in the UK as I know very well as this is the 2nd time in 2 years that I’ve had to clear a relatives’ home. I’m inspired by your achievements to give it a go even if I only get £1 + postage 😉 because there are many interesting items in his collection and there really must be new owners for most of these items.

Hi everyone as a new Whovian by proxy I need some advice, but can I first start with a tentative link and say that my first memories of Doctor Who are from spending time with my father who avidly watched every episode and read every book he could get his hands on.

This passion was passed on to my younger brother for around the last 40+ years. However, following the sudden passing of my younger brother at the end of 2022, I have found myself responsible for sorting his large (In my opinion) collection SCIFI of memorabilia. This covers everything from Doctor Who Books, magazines, Videos, DVDs, Audio CDs, Characters, and even many non-Doctor who items such as Marvel & DC, etc.

I’m sad to say that I don’t have the space to keep and display these items and although I have watched a great many Doctor episodes myself, I really don’t believe I am the right person to hold on to them. So, I would appreciate any pointers as to how best I can find new appreciative owners for such a large volume of different items either in small blocks or individually.

Rightly or wrongly, I have created an online database and have recruited my daughters to help with the daunting task of logging every item in the hope that I can share the list securely with interested parties. So if I’m not breaking any forum rules any ideas you can share other than eBay would be very much appreciated.
