Thomas Trains FOR SALE : The End of An Obsession

Its been long overdue, and my son's traintable has served lately more of a laundy folding table than for play. But, every time I mentioned packing it up or passing it on - Alex has flipped out and demanded that he need to keep his trains.  Like many kids with autism, the trains - Thomas in particular - became an obsession for him. The hours he would spend lining up the trains or setting the tracks up "just so" - he loved those trains beyond words. 

And so now here we are.. years later and my going into 4th grade child still has a train table in his room.  The time for it to go has been long overdue.   Not only would it clear up a lot of space in his room, it would make another child very very happy.    Yesterday I asked Alex  if we could sell his trains. I told him he could have some of the money for spending money when we go on vacation or for whatever he would like to buy.   I also told him that I would set up his electric keyboard with stand that is new in the box and unable to be setup until he gives up the traintable for space.  He said yes, and then said no - and then switched back - and said yes. 
 
Before he could change his mind again I went into his room and put them into their proper bins and took some pictures so I could put it on craiglist.   I listed it high figuring I'll take a lower best offer - I know from when I sold all his Fisher Price Little People toys (another huge obsession) this worked well.

So.. anyone in the Jersey shore area looking for trains?
