Priority of my possessions according to "yard sale value"

Schitzo

Books: Most books worth reading usually get re-issued. However, I would never sell a book just because I can replace them in an electronic medium. Also, some books stay out of print, usually underground comics. What i would and wouldn't get rid of largely depends. If they're instructional books, new information regarding most any subject is easily found on the internet. If they're fiction, I'll keep them if I really, really like them. I'll keep lesser known works by renowned authors.

Comics and manga: I'd get rid of them only because of how hard they are to store. But again, the feel of a physical copy can never be topped by just reading it online (unless of course the translations are just that much better). Classics like Calvin and Hobbes and the like usually get re-issued, but I'd still get reluctant to sell them. I've stopped caring about american superhero comics when I realized how their cash cow status will ensure they never see a concrete end, so yeah, i'd sell those without hesitation. Life in Hell by Matt Groening is rare by default, so I'll see to it that whatever collection I have gets buried with me.

Outdated video formats: Very hesitant to sell. Blockbusters and undisputed classics i'll easily let go of, since they'll be reissued from time to time (Star Wars, especially the theatrical releases, are the exception. I refuse to buy this series again). Once I saw how bad the Blu-ray version of The Warriors was, I also regretted getting rid of most of my collection of cult classics. I'll still purchase VHS tapes from time to time. I don't mind hording dead technology if it's cheap.

 

Video Games: Never in a million years. Videos games, for me, are sacred, and extremely "original context" sensitive. Rarely if ever can a video game, be they ancient or yesteryear, be fully replicated in their original context. Unless the game in question is truly bad or just mediocre, I'd think thrice before getting rid of them, rereleases and downloadable services be damned. Consoles even less so, even if newer versions DO allow backwards compatibility. Lets just say I place them in a high enough priority that I'll mourn the loss should they get lost in a fire.

 

So in other words: Yup, imma gonna die a packrat.

You should establish a trust to make a library for your media possessions, in your will.

Make sure to indicate what things to never transfer ownership of, under any circumstances.

I note you make no mention of things like clothes, furniture and kitchen stuff.

Alky, those are necessities.

But I guess I'll play:

Furniture: Replace as necessary.

Kitchen: Same

Clothing: Largely depends. At this point in my life, I'm trying to get more professional looking clothing, so I might want to get rid of most T-shirt and Jeans ensembles. Cosplay crap I'll never get rid of. Embarrassing christmas sweaters get the boot. Shoes get replaced as necessary.

Televisions: I'll keep an Analog handy just in case.

Camcorders: I'll think twice. Film is a hobby of mine.

Drawing Tablets: Replace as necessary:

Musical Instruments: Replace as necessary. I also won't get rid of something if it's the only one I have and I like the instrument.

Eating utencils, dinner plates etc.: Replace as necessary

Music electronics: Get rid of it if there's no saving it. Upgrade speakers and headphones if necessary.

 Jesus, you're like me from an alternate universe.

 I sell freaking everything. I don't think I have many possessions that are more than a year old at most.

I forgot:

Music: I treat them same as I would outdated video formats. No way are those records/LPs getting replaced without a fight.
