I have been in gaming repair for 20+ years and i have one of the largest hoards of files in the community. It’s mostly bin files iso hdd images. All together its roughly 5tb of data. One of the companies i help out a lot has offered to buy a copy of my hoard. 99% of the files are online in different archives so im not too worried about legality i just have no clue what I would even charge for something like that. Buying everything one chip or cd at a time I probably have thousands invested into this hoard.

I didn’t make anything in my hoard so I wouldn’t charge anything for it. May I give parts out? Sure. But I wouldn’t charge a cent as all I did was gather it, intellectually did nothing to create it. Not mine to sell.
As I gave me answer I’ll add to this. You say “Gaming repair” is this old arcade cabinets?
You can buy 5tb arcade rom drives loaded up on amazon, ebay, aliexpress and other places for under $200. I wouldn’t recommend selling or even sharing your files for free for legal reasons.
If you worked at a video store and manually uploaded all the blu-rays to your computer, do you think it would be a good idea to sell all those files to someone? Obviously, that’s illegal af. You are talking about doing the exact same thing.
Fuck the haters. Sell your hoard for a pretty penny and retire to a fucking beach somewhere.
