Depends what it was, if I needed the money, if it was going to be worth even more in a few years.

1. Is it a life-changing amount of money that would it help you now? - Sell

2. If its not money that would help you now but the item might appreciate in the future - Ask an expert opinion on the item's chance of changing in value.

3. Don't need the cash and like the item - Keep it

4. Don't need the cash and don't like it - sell if you think you can get the best price now as 2 above.


What is it anyway, am curious? Art?

Even if I wasn't close to them I'd keep it because it must have meant something to them and they thought to leave it to me.

Unless it was a turd in a shoe box made to look like a dead caterpillar with match sticks for legs.

It's unique. So that must be why it's worth something.

We need to know what it is.

A cracking idea to include something like that in my will for a disliked relative - put it in a safety deposit box with instructions on how to access it with the executor.

They might have a couple of days thinking they've been left something valuable hehe

Expensive though.

It needs to be a humidity controlled environment otherwise the fecal matter will dry out and not be smelly when opened.
