Whether or not you can get what you originally paid for them really isn't the issue. Let's say you could get 50% of that. Would you be happy with that? The question is would you rather have the money or the figurines? I'm a collector myself, so I can certainly understand if the answer is the figurines. But if the answer is the money, then take steps to sell them.

As for not being computer literate, sorry but I find that to be a cop-out. I don't know you or your circumstances, but you are obviously able to get online, visit this board and probably at least manage sending and reading e-mails. The only other significant skill you would need to sell on ebay would be the ability to take and post digital photos, and that isn't tough to learn. You can get an inexpensive digital camera for well under $100 that would be more than adequate for ebay work.

If you post the names of a few of your better pieces, I'll do an ebay search and tell you what they might bring if you were to sell them.
