Bill, I empathize with your comments.
As you note, to successfully realize financial value from these items,
one needs to be willing to put them into the various marketplaces,
potential customers need to be comfortable with you as a seller, and
customers need to find your pricing reasonable.
I'm a business concern and even I am loathe to try to list items I have
on the various marketplaces, for the reasons you note. Some people on
this list have the "presence" and patience to see good results, but I
don't think many of us do.
Still, as long as we're talking about those of us here pricing, packing,
and selling items, I wish everyone great transactions and positive
experiences.
The idea of leaving these items behind and thinking our loved ones will
see any value from selling is ludicrous, though, and I question the
sanity of those who seriously believe this. While I am sure there are
exceptions to the rule, I do not believe there are many.
I still say, if you think it is worth something, make sure you sell it
yourself while you are still alive.
