I wouldn't get too excited about the Pokemon TCGs.
The target audience is still kids, and generally, collectors aren't really all that interested in them.
What I'm saying is, there will be collectors for all sorts of cards, but Pokemon TCG isn't exactly a high valued collectible item.

That being said, people still play Pokemon, but not with those cards.
Tournaments happen every year, and cards (sets) get rotated out.
The cards you guys have are ancient. Maybe if you're very lucky, some collector
might buy it... but people that actually play the game would find no use for that.

I've got too much to list but some highlights:

I've got a bunch of ancient software and such:
- A mint copy of IBM's Disk Operating System manual circa 1986.
- Actual 5.25" Floppy Disk set for A-10 Tank Killer including manual.
- MS DOS version of KidPix in box.
- Bunch more but its put away somewhere.

- Original Gameboy with games including Tetris
- Hockey cards from 86-92

I still use my old Sony Sports Walkman from time to time and listen to my old cassettes and mix tapes. Primarily it has AM radio for listening to Blazer and Canuck games, Dan Russell's SportsTalk, and Coast 2 Coast AM for some laughs.

I will be moving out of my parents place soon so I should be coming across some good stuff (hopefully).

I do know for a fact that I have a lot of old magic cards from when the 4th edition was out. I wonder if they're worth anything....

pretty sure i spent less than 70$ total on pokemon, pogs, magic cards

but may be 100+ on lego, that was the best toy, may be of all time

LEGO isn't cheap - a quick look on their website and I see 40 sets/models that cost more than CDN$100 each!

So it won't take long for you to wrack up $100 worth of LEGO.

If they're in good condition, they're worth retail price at the very least, or more if they're from a desirable theme.

So think twice before donating. :)
