Have decided to offer up vast majority of my collection if anyone is interested?
Planning on keeping CD box set and a few other items but other than that feels like right time to pass on as all vinyl, posters/cuttings, badges/patches etc are not really seeing light of day, and many CDs are duplicating what I've already got.
If anyone is seriously interested let me know and I'll do a proper catalogue. Would include all UK regular issues, various imports and rarities so will use eBay as my overall price guide. All the vinyl is at least VG, some of it hardly played. Every UK 7" is original pic sleeve.
Posters range from Jackie and Smash Hits centrespreads right through to full size gig posters.
Finally, not overly interested in breaking collection up to sell so for now it's an all or nothing offer.
I thank you should target a USA fan. Due to the fact the Rats did not make it big in the good old US of A. So would be hard to pick up what you have for sale. I'm sure there would be some die hard fans here that would love to get there hand on your catalogue. Plus you might get a better price
I'm colouring Tango in for the memorabilia stuff as requested (in Blackpool tangerine obviously) and hoping delivery by hand will negate need for P&P to outweigh cost of collection
She might be the only one on forum who could actually fit into those tour t-shirts anyway!
I flogged some of my stuff some years back and regretted it having to rebuy stuff but tbseem to have a lot of it back in my collection still collecting now but only odd bits here & there only about half a dozen items to find
Point taken. I heard that the 40th ann Dublin gig was coming out on dvd. Any one on this form know of this?
Not heard anything about that, but in meantime I've started to snap collection for bits I'm offloading. Only really keeping box set and anything signed to me personally so there's quite a bit going. Have broken down by genre, and will follow with select posters and so on, but still 'flattening' those for pic purposes, plus trying to track down a couple missing in depths of loft
On basis these are 'worth what people are willing to pay' I'm happy to take any offers via PM. Will also consider delivering depending on location as Rats are on the road over next couple of. months so detours possible. Preference remains to sell as job lots, at least by genre, but if anyone makes an offer that can't be ignored for individual items will consider separating.
Just want these to go to a good home really, ie. not from me to buyer straight to eBay.
Vinyl 7" - all uk issues plus selected imports. Dun Laoghaire and Eva Braun both B sides of Clockwork. The clear flexi is Christmas message to fans. Haven't included my Dun Laoghaire flexi as it got creased so not sure it's playable.

ps. Badges and patches are pretty much as below. One or two added since pic, one given away already (circular enamel gold classic logo on black background).
Gig posters etc from 80s to present include following, some signed. There are also a fair few 70s/80s band posters and centrespreads to throw into mix. Sizes vary alot so please enquire if you need to.
In no particular order.....

Finally unearthed missing posters etc. Too many national/music press cuttings and mag pics/articles to bore people with so a flavour follows. Last posts I promise! Apologies if loading a little slow...
