We realized it was not worth the time and effort it would have taken to break them down and resell individually or in small lots. Unless you can buy these cards for next to nothing I would pass. It's fun to have that many cards at your disposal but you get tired of looking at 500 copies of 1987 Topps Jesse Barfield cards.
My plan was to wait a couple of months until this guy really has to sell them and is tired of trying to sell them and give a firm, take it or leave it offer that is really cheap. I would then probably break it down into maybe 10 or 20 more managable lots that I would resell.
