    So far this seems to be a weak attempt at pulling a DavidG on TFW. At least AF3 debacle was fairly entertaining.

    for everything in those boxes and crates he's looking at probably about $150.00 maybe $200.00 tops. no way he'll get more unless the people buying them are uneducated dealers.

    Judging by the pics, the guy probably hasn't contacted your BIL about this stuff because he doesn't want it.

    DavidG claimed to be former SNK employee and in possession of Aero Fighters 3 AES (un-released). Sold about 6 for 30k each.
    Was the $30,000 Video Game Sale a Fake?

    Mate, you really need to learn what "G1 TF MISB" is, because that ain't it.

    Unless there's some real mindblowing shit wrapped up in newspaper or under the other stuff, what you've got there is a load of junk. Like, seriously, "bargian bin under the table at a toy show $2-$5 tops willing to negotiate" junk.

    Liquidate that stuff at a flea market or to a comic shop or something, because it won't be worth the effort on ebay except as a lot, and it's definitely not worth the space it's occupying.

    OP has not delivered.

    If/when you can grab more pics, do so. As far as the unit, it is too bad that your brother had nothing in writing. If I was him, I would spend the $150-$200 to consult an attorney as to where to go from here. Don't want this biting you (him) in the ass down the line.

    I'd kinda laugh if "The Friend" was smart as hell and took off with all the more rare stuff mentioned above and left you with the junk leftovers instead.

    Doesn't sound like there were any legally binding agreements made by either party, and possession is 9/10 of the law. Friend Who Bailed would have a hell of a time fighting Brother In Law over getting his stuff back. It's been 15 years. Brother In Law should stop being a pussy and sell the stuff to recoup as much of his loss as possible, there is no moral dilemma here.

    And OP should go to Brother In Law and tell him that if he doesn't produce pics of really cool stuff, then his internet cred is shot.

    So, if he moved them from a storage facility to his house, how were they discovered in a shed?
