Sell on an exchange. The big ones have a monthly trade volume of 100k+ BTC ($50+ million): http://bitcoinity.org/markets/list?currency=ALL&span=30d Clearly $200k is a drop in the bucket for them.
I sold $800k US of bitcoin on bitstamp market earlier this year - i did it over 30 minutes and it dropped the spot price about $6
