    Are there any pinsiders who collect garbage pail kids? I was hoping someone could give me a quick and dirty education on what is and isn’t collectible in the GPK scene. I have most of the first 5 series I collected as a kid. I was wondering if now is the time to cash out of that collection. Any insight much appreciated!

    I just sold my stored collection, about a box's worth series 1-7 I believe.. It's almost impossible to find a consistent value guide online. I sold mine for about $60. They were of no value to me anymore!

    I love Garbage Pail Kids. My originals are all long gone but I started buying new packs with my daughter this year. It was so fun for both me and her. There is just something about those cards…they are like magic for retro adults and current kids.

    For what it’s worth, if you can find a buyer willing to pay a good price and you are okay letting them go, I’d sell them. A lot of times cards are listed for certain amounts but never sell. Not sure how active the market really is at the higher price points.
