Tough one and tough spot. In my opinion, to maximize $$$ selling individually and in small lots is the way to go, but as you have learned, that will require alot of work.
If I found myself unemployed and with no other options, I would start selling my collection slowly and surely (a combination of Net54 B/S/T, ebay buy-it-now's and straight auctions, and for anything high dollar a few auctions houses would be called). I obviously would have plenty of time on my hands, so the extra work/stress of selling individually should not be a problem. This scenario would give me some weekly cash flow, and perhaps prevent me from selling my entire collection if things turned around for me.
Large T206 lots just don't work well on eBay so I would rule that out. Sending a large lot to an auction house is a hit or miss proposition. They do all the work which is great, but I would say it's 50/50 on whether the hammer price will be satisfactory. If you need somewhat fast money, and find yourself working two jobs to make ends meet, a few large lots via an auction house is the way to go, but at the end of the day it might leave you with a bad taste in your mouth.
That is all I've got....
Lovely Day...
