Man.... I know you say you don't want to use an auction house, but think of the labor of just doing 1/40th of your collection for sale? 1000 things!!! If it took you an avg of 10 minutes to make the ebay page that's 10,000 minutes or 167 hours! Then the same ten minutes to make a label, pack the card and ship it off is another 167 hours!
For 40k cards that is 3334 hours (or 416 days at 8 hours a day with no breaks non stop) realistically we are talking a full time job for 2 years just selling em.
If you valued your labor at $15 an hr that's $50k AND you have to do all the work. I would think that even if you paid $75k in commissions the ease of just shipping em off would offset that.
but ymmv! good luck!
