Earning Money Out of Your Toy Collection

        Four years ago, my son persistently asked me to buy him a Nerf Blaster (toy gun) which he had seen from Cartoon Network Ads. This toy gun uses foam darts and discs made by Hasbro. Simply thinking that this toy is made by Hasbro, the maker of quality toys, I didn't quite hesitate to buy him one. As a matter of fact, Wikipedia has well - documented Nerf Blasters via this link --

 The first blaster I bought for my son was the Recon CS-6. Because of the toy's quality and performance, my husband liked it too and unexpectedly, became so addicted, thus, started collecting some units. Since we were both working and quite earning well, he can afford to buy every latest unit out in the malls. The price normally ranges from Php 1,000  to Php 3,500 per unit depending on the Blaster feature. We were spending Php 5,000 per our monthly pay out just for Nerf Blasters. I was quite furious since I didn't find it practical at all. Such price for toys???

Little did I know, my husband was as well exploring buy and sell via online thrift shop. He was having deals and meetups, buying second-hand Nerf toys. Though I was kept informed about this, I was skeptical and worried since I didn't find it safe for him making deals and meetups with strangers in different places.

After more than a year, I never expected that I will be resigning from work. Couple of reasons but the main one is Work- Life Balance. I only have one child but I got so drowned with work which resulted to my family needs being left unattended. Bottom line, I have chosen family over career after all those constant unhealthy arguments between me and my husband. With this, as expected, budget has been affected. Couple of months after my resignation, my final pay and our savings were all exhausted for our expenses (school expenses, food, allowance, bills).

My husband was so optimistic, reminding me that we'll get through the tight moments. I never thought that his toy collection would save us from our finances whilst I am unemployed. He had several buyers even from far places, provinces from North. Some Nerf blasters were consigned whilst most of them were sold through meetups. The second-hand Nerf blasters he had from buy and sell were sold twice the price they were purchased. Limited edition blasters were more expensive. My husband asked some of his friends as well from abroad to buy him the latest units which are not yet introduced and sold in the country. These were all sold, with him, having a good profit whilst having an expansion to his collection. Bonus is, we had more quality time to spend together as a family during our "Nerf War" extending it with my brother-in-law's family.

Conspicuously, collecting toys can be satiable to most collectors and may also be indeed helpful, letting you earn money in hassle-free ways. You can start making your own sideline out of your old yet still valuable stuff like toys. We just have to be persistent, patient and resourceful. Above all, remain faithful, for God truly always makes a way.
