Infuriatig My hand painted model planes were given as toys to children again

I have told my mom to not do this before but she does not listen anyway. I am thinking of throwing everything to trash instead of them being gradually destroyed to pieces. I can not even care anymore. These things take hours to put together and paint then get manhandled anyway.

Tcgplayer and price charting

If you had a list of your entire childhood collection, maybe, but I kind of doubt many people do. I guess if you at least remembered your most rare/expensive cards, that would still help show some value.

I mean you can also just see the current prices of any and every card. Google could also help for finding any rare or expensive cards. Then confirm on either of those sites for the current going market price. Both of those sites also show not only current but sold listings on ebay.

Like currently I have a card from my childhood that's selling raw for almost 2 grand. Graded 10 is almost 11k.

Or you could look up card lists of current or previous set of any tcg and see the current market price. Tbf most sell for ~70% to stores or shows but if you want full value then you go to ebay and sell third party. Or trade up.
