eBay would be pretty hit and miss I'd guess, especially if you don't
have the original packaging. If you were after money splitting it up
would no doubt be the way forward, but with that comes extra hassle.

I'm 100% sure that you'd be able to give the stuff away, or even raise
a few pound, plus get it collected if you set a price.

I'd certainly be interested in a few bits, especially the two
adventures on 5 1/4" disks...
