Default Selling t206 collection question

Hey all,
I may or may not be going into a little financial trouble. I wont get into specifics, but may be out of work for some time.
So....with that said, I might consider selling my collection of T206's.
Id like to let the mods know that this is not a "for sale ad". I know that if i would like to sell, I need to post in the BST.

That is where my question come in. My collection consists of 450 out of the 520 I was going for (Demmitt/Ohara included). I am missing about 5-6 Hof's, about 20 SL's, with the rest being various commons (still need most, but not all of the toughies). All the cards are graded. Mostly by SGC, but some Psa as well, and maybe 3-4 BVG. Grades are all over the place with everything from authentic and poor to EX. Most are G-VG though. Couple tougher backs as well, but nothing serious (like a Uzit or Drum).

So....for those of you who have been doing this for years and are in the know, what is the best way of selling these?
As a complete lot? Broken into lots by grades? Broken into smaller lots? Individually?
Also Ive never dealt with auction houses and dont know how they "work", but would that be a good option? Ebay? Here on BST?

Fwiw, I had a number of dupes about 6 months ago that I sold on here and Ebay. I ended up having to sell them induvidually and, to be honest, I hated it....LOL. I do not like selling, packaging, running to the PO, etc....
Its just not my thing, selling is not for me. I felt it was more hassle than what it was worth.
So it would be much better for me if I could sell all at once, however unlikely that may seem.

Once again, this "hardship" may or may not happen, so this might be all a moot point. I would much rather go ahead and get the 70 cards I need for my 520 than have to sell off the 450 I have spent so much effort in obtaining. But I gotta do what I gotta do....

Any advice that you guys could give me really would really help.

Once again, this is not a FS post so please dont contact me with cards u might need.

Thanks Net 54!
