[UK/WW] - Time for a Clear Out

The sad day has come where I need to part with some of my collection, predominantly because it was revealed a couple of days ago that our young 'Jake the Dog' is urgently in need of a new leg [no joke]. I've toyed with selling the odd set now and again in the past but now it's time for me to grit my teeth and put my selfish habits to one side to help him. Just look at the poor bugger - how can I not? He is well-insured but as with most insurance companies, they are finding every reason under the sun to only partially cover him, leaving us a few thousand short.
I haven't compiled a list in the traditional sense but instead have provided a couple of pictures of each set. I simply don't have the time to research the going rate of each and every set so feel free to post/discuss offers here or by pm. Generally I'm looking for Ebay/Bricklink prices minus 20%, something like that but am open to any worthwhile offer.
In some instances there are multiples of each set but have only photographed one. I've reduced the file sizes as much as I dare but I will pm high res or additional photos to show any defects etc. There aren't many though. Most people who know me know that I take good care of my sets. Any minor defects found today were likely caused before I took possession of them. All sets are sealed and most (if not all) are long retired.
Shipping will be arranged to suit. With signature or without. With insurance or without but all will be boxed securely with wrapping and airbags etc.
I live in Maidenhead, Berkshire (five minutes from J8/9 of the M4) and work in Beaconsfield, Bucks (two minutes from J2 of the M40) if collection is preferred or can potentially meet up closer to you, depending on the value of the purchase.
There are a few more to add in the future, just need to find the time to photograph.
Cheers,
James.

I hope you raise the money to help the little guy out. If there’s one thing that people on here do well, it’s rally to help a good cause and this definitely falls into that category :-)
It's fair to say that Sarah and I are gutted and I guess any family with a dog (or other dependent pet) would feel no different. Anything that's needed, right? As soppy or irrational as it might sound, he's like or third child. He's more dependent on us than the kids.
after spending over a thousand pounds on one of our rescue cats with a failing kidney I fully understand the love we have for our four legged members of the family.
It's crap isn't it, but what can you do? Unfortunately we sit in the camp where you just have to go all in and do whatever it takes. I was saying to someone else this afternoon, Jake is like a third child to us, more mischievous and more dependent. Certain shows Sarah and I more love and gratitude than the two human kids we have.
A few more......
